Real celebrities, their fake ids and millions of frenzied fans, well that’s the truth about the virtual world and various social networking sites as Preity Zinta has just discovered.
When our cute, bubbly Preity Zinta came to know about her thousands upon thousands of followers on Twitter, she was shocked. However flattered she was at having over 140,000 followers, the slight problem was that it wasn’t her account but a phony Preity with a phony id.
That called for some action and Ms Zinta made her own id with the name ‘realpreityzinta’. She has recently tweeted, “Will try to get my account verified and put up a photograph! Till then thanx to my dearest Karan. Love him to bits !!!” Preity has asked her friend Karan Johar to help in this matter as he is already a regular on the site and is quite clued up on it. KJo has responded by tweeting to all his tweeps that the real Preity is now in the twitterverse.
Now, it’s the real Preity who is tweeting and she has challenged her impersonator to show the dimple. “Ask her or him to show the dimple then we shall see ! :-) he he !”
