We're sure it was full of teen-irific surprises, but what really piqued our curiosity is that high profile celebrity Twitterer, Ellen DeGeneres (@TheEllenShow), won the award for Choice Twit (was Ashton in the running?), and in the process promised to make the prize worthwhile to a lucky Twitter follower.
Ellen is currently the service's second most popular user and is fast approaching 3 million followers. Possibly as a ploy to close the gap between her and the competition, Ellen announced that she will randomly reward one follower with $1,000. The official announcement was made on air, hinted about on Twitter, and confirmed on The Ellen Degeneres Show Blog.
The post reads, "You never know what surprises she's planning for her newly award-winning tweets! That is, unless you watch her acceptance speech, in which case you'll know that sometime soon she's giving away $1,000 to a random follower!"
