I’m looking to hire a #winning INTERN with #TigerBlood. Apply here ??? http://bit.ly/hykQQF #TigerBloodIntern #internship #ad
If sources are to be believed, this is the most expensive tweet ever. Charlie Sheen, the actor who got fired by Warner Bros. Television on Monday from the popular US sitcom “Two and a Half Men,” used Twitter to look for a paid intern, and he’s even getting paid to do it. The #ad hashtag shows that the tweet was an advertisement, a message for which Sheen was paid by the year-old website Internships.com. It???s being reported that the actor was paid in six figures for this tweet promoting the site. Ad.ly president Sean Rad, who handled the ad deal, told RumorFix???
Yes he did break the all-time record and handily. It was the most expensive tweet to date and the most effective.
In less than 24 hours, the tweet brought more than 345,000 clicks to the internship website. Ad.ly is a Beverly Hills firm that writes tweets or Facebook status updates for celebrities. With Ad.ly, Sheen has joined more than 1,000 celebrities, who include all three Kardashian sisters, Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol of the L.A. Lakers, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, Mike Tyson and musicians Linkin Park, Enrique Iglesias and 50 Cent. The socialite Kim Kardashian is one of the most expensive tweeters at $10,000 per 140 characters.
Charlie Sheen’s six-figure tweet has undeniably opened new doors to the world of social media advertising. Anyway, he shouldn’t think much about acting now; he has tweets to do.
