Ashton Kutcher has over one million followers on Twitter
The 31-year-old actor posted a video on UStream.tv of the build-up to the one-millionth follower joining. In it he said: “This is a dogfight, people. It’s coming down to it… CNN is pushing hard, they’re coming up on us. We are almost there, we are a thousand followers away, less than a thousand followers away, CNN is trailing, it’s not out of reach yet.”
The winner of the race to a million followers on the site said they would donate 10,000 mosquito nets to charity in time for World Malaria Day, and Kutcher estimated this would cost around $100,000.
The actor then produces a cheque he has made out to the Malaria No More Fund. He said: “This is a cheque folks for $100,000 made out to Malaria No More Fund.”
Ashton finally reached one million followers and later posted messages on his Twitter page saying: “Victory is ours!!!!!!!!” and “YOU GUYS are AMAZING”.
