Justin Bieber responsible for 3 percent of all traffic on Twitter
(HMG Celebrity News) – No Justin Bieber is not twittering day and night, but his fans certainly are. According to Dustin Curtis, a designer who interviewed an employee at Twitter, buzz surrounding the 16-year-old Canadian pop sensation makes up 3% of Twitter conversation. Given the 180 million unique visitors every month, that’s quite an achievement. Curtis tweeted Monday that “racks of servers” are dedicated to Bieber, who has more than 5 million followers on Twitter.
If you don’t believe Bieber Fever can sometimes get a little out of control, just ask 15 year-old Sydney Dalton, who became a bit of an Internet celebrity when the video she posted of her and her friends tearing up Justin Bieber posters drew the ire of JB fans. As the video went viral, Dalton became Public Enemy #1 to the Bieber Army, which promptly stripped her of her fan club membership. Her twitter followers, many of them also rabid Bieber fans began criticizing her… and eventually the criticism turned to ugly threats and cyber bullying.One detractor, in a post titled “I Hate Sydney Dalton” threatens Sydney: “I’m going to hit you the *** face with a full wine bottle. Cork & all.”
