There’s a new Twitter queen in town!

One year ago, Ashton Kutcher beat CNN in the race to 1 million followers and continued to have the most followers in the Twitterverse. Until now!

Britney Spears has slowly been creeping up on Ashton’s Twitter following and at the time of this posting, Britney has 4,939,603 followers and Ashton has 4,937,927.

Of note: Britney doesn’t tweet herself. Her team does it for her and her manager Adam Leber chimes in semi-often even though he has an account of his own. Brit also tweets an average of 1.7 tweets/day while Ashton averages 11.2.

Today, Ashton has been at a press junket for his new movie called Killers. He tweeted, “Second most pop question [has been] ‘What do you think about Britney having more followers than you?’ Answer: ‘I don’t care. Aren’t you suppose to be a movie reporter?’”

Britney Spears' Camp Saved ... In Part

The following italicized article is from www.tmz.com:

The summer camp Britney Spears founded has been saved from going belly up, TMZ has learned -- but it's not fully in the clear yet.

A rep for Summer Stars Camp -- formerly the Britney Spears Camp for the Performing Arts -- says they raised $30,000 in donations since TMZ first reported its financial demise.

That's enough to allow about 60 kids to enroll, all expenses paid -- but the camp's goal is to get 125 kids in the program this summer.
