'Tweance' Lets You Talk to Dead Celebrities on Twitter!
This has been a tough year to be famous. The wildfire rash of celebrity deaths in 2009 left many fans too disillusioned, despondent, and depressed to consider a future without Michael Jackson or Billy Mays. This Halloween, though, we can all lay off the Prozac or barbituate cocktails for one night and huddle around the warm fire of Twitter, where a psychic will
On October 30th, in what The Sun has dubbed the world's first (but hopefully not the last) "online séance," world-renowned psychic Jayne Wallace will perch on Twitter and speak with four dead celebrities, the identities of whom are to be selected by the Twittering public. During this "Tweance," Wallace, who claims to have possessed clairvoyant powers since the tender age of seven, will live-tweet her interviews with the chosen stars between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m. on Halloween Eve. (The Tweance account, by total coincidence, is also promoting a Halloween costume store in the U.K. Spooky.)
It's not yet clear whether the expired celebs will have to tailor their answers to 140 characters themselves, or if squeezing Marilyn Monroe's musings into a 140-character box will be left to Wallace. What we're interested in, obviously, are the names of the lucky Fab Four. We expect the King of Pop will be among the quartet, and probably some heavy-hitting old-timers like Elvis (Is George Washington on the ballot?), but we think that recent 2009 history will probably bias the voting, for better or worse. If it does, we really hope that a certain special and tragically forgotten victim of the 2009 Death Wave makes the final cut. [From: Mashable and The Sun]
