The Punk’d star beat the venerable news network in reaching more than 1 million followers on Twitter. Anderson Cooper was covering the exciting duel live when @aplusk became the first-ever Twitter millionaire at 11:13 p.m. PT Thursday. @cnnbrk went platinum 29 minutes later at 11:42.
“Victory is ours!!!!!!!!” Kutcher wrote shortly after crossing the finish line. He posted a celebratory video of his champagne popping shortly thereafter, as his celebrity friends, including Diddy and Ryan Seacrest, offered their congratulations.
Kutcher and CNN faced mild competition from Britney Spears, who attempted—unsuccessfully—to get in the race. However, the battle will heat up today, when Oprah Winfrey joins the live-blogging network. @Oprah typed her very first tweet during the taping of her show.
