Why Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert Twitter

Blake Shelton and Miranda LambertSome folks would say that Twitter, the rapid-fire social networking craze, is just a way for people to hear themselves talk. Others might say it's just a marketing gimmick. But Blake Shelton uses the hell out of Twitter anyway he damn well pleases. His girlfriend, Miranda Lambert, is catching on, too, and told EW.com she looks at Twitter as a window for people to get to know you. "I'm not gonna be like, 'OK, getting dressed now! Everything's perfect! Buy my record!' That's not what Twitter's for," she said. So what then, is it for? "Twitter's for us to just be crazy idiots and say whatever we want," Lambert said. I don't know if they come across as crazy idiots or not, but their stream-of-consciousness mini-monologues are definitely random. Like one of Shelton's last Tweets, that read: "If you don't like George Strait you probably have naked pictures of your grandpa ..."

    I recently had an random “tweet” from Blake after a night at a local fair to see him in concert….

    I twittered to him
    “You rocked my socks off in CT last night”

    ….and Blake tweets back to me
    “Damn it!! I was going for your underwear!!!

    I think Blake is having a good time and after all isn’t that what it’s all about ? Always be true to yourself. Be what and who you are. That’s an admiral quality..

    A sense of humor is crucial. Laughter is indeed the best medicine.

    Love you,
    Kathy

    P.S. I love George Straight.

    If you really loved him, you’d know how to spell his name “Strait”.

    Blake is hilarious. He’s one of those celebrities that actually knows how to use twitter. I have a few friends on there as well, and we have a blast, and have even connected with a few other Blake fans through Twitter.

    I think Blake is an amazing singer, the most overlooked male voice in Nashville. However, twitter is a stalking site and I hope he and Miranda are careful. You do nothing but “follow” people. Facebook is much more fun.
