He’s already part of the elite footballing set – now it looks as if Cristiano
Ronaldo is also part of the elite social networking set too.
The Real Madrid winger surpassed 20-million followers on micro-blogging
site Twitter, leaving him a comparatively paltry three million shy of the
top ten most followed celebrities on the hugely popular site.
Ronaldo, who is currently training in Los Angeles with his team mates,
tweeted the news on July 27, shortly after reaching the milestone.
‘Hey guys, #weare20million now! Thanks so much for your support. Stay
tuned to win some special prizes,’ he posted.
Those prizes have so far included personalised mugs and smartphone
holders as he encourages his adoring fans to send him photos of
themselves – with the most retweeted winning the coveted gifts.
Followers have since been flooding his timeline with images in which they
are captured wearing Ronaldo football shirts bearing the number 7 he
wears for Real Madrid and the Portugal national team, as well as rooms
filled with Ronaldo memorabilia.
