The Best
Demi Moore

Instead of making movies, Demi Moore has established herself as veritable Queen of the Tweeterdome.
Almost entirely cutting out the need for press interviews (to be honest, she ain’t promoting much these days), Moore is, ahem, more than happy to respond to fan questions, no matter how ridiculous.
And she loves it when people tell her they’ve purchased her brand of perfume. Considering the frequency of her updates, she’s surely now suffering from some sort of RSI? Just don’t get us started on her hubbie…
Typical Tweets: “Wow! What city are you in? RT @diva2info purchased the Wanted gift set at Macy's on the weekend and they engraved the bottle. So wonderful!”
“Thank you I love this ho ho ho! RT @kats2009: This is for you @mrskutcher, to get you in the Christmas mood! http://twitpic.com/resl7”
“Yes I did! RT @jeni_mama: did you nurse your 2 other daughters as well?”
The Worst
William Shatner

The old fella has a go, but really he comes off as precisely as curt and protracted as his most famous character, just minus the charisma. Replies to fans are generally brief and cursory. Sort of like if your granddad started Twittering. Or the Queen.
Somehow when Shatner says ‘friends’, it sounds ridiculously sinister. Still, at least he acknowledges their existence, which has to count for something...
Typical Tweets: “@steffri Thank you for the kind words of praise. My best, Bill”
“Please read the statement released today by my production company: http://www.williamshatner.c... My best, Bill”
“Friends, Seaon 2 of Raw Nerve Debuts on December 6. See the press release on my site. My best, Bill”

Kevin Smith is very irritating on Twitter. After the first few pages of hearing about 'eating his wife's a*s' it gets a bit tired.

I'm saddened by the lack of any Simon Pegg or Edgar Wright on this list...

That's not to mention Peter Serafinowitz...who I guess could be said to have been left out because he's not exactly a movie star, but dammit he's by far the funniest person to follow on Twitter. Ever. Neil Patrick Harris is reaching towards Nathan Fillion status though...Felicia Day is great too. I just wish Joss Whedon would join up.
