UPDATE: According to Ellen’s Twitter from five minutes ago (3:26 p.m. now), “Jeannie is at Sewell GMC in Dallas right now. You know what that means. (It means big prizes).”
First Oprah and now, Ellen?
I found these mysterious tweets just now on The Ellen Show’s Twitter feed. I wonder what the deal is. Hard to tell if she’s in (or coming to) town or what but she clearly wants us to follow. These are as of 8:45 p.m. Monday night. Here are the posts starting with the latest:
My tweets MIGHT be going to Dallas tomorrow…and there MIGHT be awesome prizes involved…I’m just saying. About 1 hour ago from web
If you are in (or near) Dallas, it’s a good idea to be following me on twitter… About 2 hours ago from web
True or false: I’m gonna be sending tweets to Dallas tomorrow…Guess you’ll have to wait and see. About 3 hours ago from web
Hey Dallas – the city, not the TV show – watch for my tweets tomorrow. About 4 hours ago from web
Attention followers: We’re planning the biggest giveaway in the history of Twitter. Get your friends to follow me NOW & stay tuned. About 6 hours ago from web
Clearly, she’s a tweeting maniac. Stay tuned.
From Ellen’s site:
I’m sending Jeannie, my receptionist, somewhere in the country today. Last time I sent her to Miami with the Golddigger machine and ended up giving her brand new GMC Terrain to a viewer. Now, a GMC dealer in Dallas gave me great deal on a brand new one! I wonder what I should do with it…
This twitter crap is driving me crazy. It is so ego-driven…..
My partner and I went to this event as soon as we got the tweet…
1) extremely unorganized….lines moved around multiple times almost causing 2 stampedes.
2) she needs to work on her tweeting skills. Her “next set of instructions in 3 minutes” never materialized
3) I was amazed at the number of people that brought their kids dressed like they were going to be on “Toddlers and Tiaras”!
Some lucky woman won a new GMC car. Likely to be aired tomorrow.
