Assessment 4 –Twitter Influence

Assessment 5
– Social Networks – how well are they
being used by chosen celebrities?

Celebrities using Social Media Poorly Which Social Medias? What are they doing wrong?
Andrew DePaola Instagram
I follow him because he was a Rutgers graduate and current longsnapper of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He rarely
uses his Instagram , but when he does, it is good to see how he is progressing.
Rodolfo Andres Roca (not specified) Rodolfo Andres Roca because he doesnt use (social media) often and does not promote his soccer career on it.
Matthew Gray Gubler Twitter
Gubler is an actor best known for playing Spencer Reed on Criminal Minds. Frankly, a lot of his tweets do not make
sense. He tweets a lot of "inside jokes" or references things that most people do not know about. He gets a lot of
retweets and likes, but I think he could do better.
Jennifer Lawrence (social medias in general)
Jennifer Lawrence maintains a private life despite being a celebrity, she refuses to use any sort of social media (we
think) because she doesn't really know how to use them . It's kind of interesting to see someone who is always in the
spotlight, and such a famous person, not want to live her life behind a phone. I applaud her.
Justin Timberlake Instagram
I don't think Justin Timberlake is using Instagram very optimally. Although he has 22 million followers, I certainly feel
that he can have more if he posted more frequently . He is a celebrity that is married to another celebrity and people
want to follow his posts to see their life. However, he posts every few weeks. Overall, I think if he posted more often,
he would have more followers coming to his page. No one wants to come to a celebrities page and see that they
haven't posted in weeks.
Robert Kardashian Instagram
I picked Robert Kardashian as my celebrity who is not using my favorite social media channel well. Looking at his
profile you can see he has 4.8m followers which gives him a rating of 5 on our assessment scale. However I don't
believe he deserves a 5 because he does not take full advantage of his social media. He only has 27 posts which is not
very many. Majority of his posts are of food or someone else. He does not advertise for his sock line which is
something he has been working on for years. There are so many ways he could be branding himself and getting his
name out and he is not doing that on his social media. He should be posting regularly so he is in his fans newsfeed.
Just because he has a lot of followers does not mean he is using his instagram well to promote and brand himself.
Milo Yiannopoulos Twitter
@Nero or Milo Yiannopoulos, the reporter, with the social authority of 86, does not use Twitter optimally because he
tweets very controversial and racist comments.
Childish Gambino Twitter Childish Gambino, because he has deleted all his tweets/ favorites and is not active
Benson Henderson Instagram
Benson Henderson is a former world champion in mixed martial arts. I do not believe he is using instagram optimally
simply because of the little content he puts up. As an avid fan, it would make a lot more people exposed to his
sponsers through the use of constant updates. Simply not being active enough does not take advantage of his celebrity
status.
George H.W. Bush Facebook
George H.W. Bush Sr., because he is from an age before which Facebook was popularized in this nation. Soon after
he left office (in 1992), communication became facilitated through advanced forms of technology and media.
Brendan Shanahan
Brendan Shanahan who is the president of the Tornto Maple Leafs does not use twitter optimally. This is because a lot
of his job is meant to stay private and a lot of the work he does (contracts and trades) are not meant to leak out to
the public and that is why he doesn't use twitter that much.
Shigeru Miyamoto Facebook
I think that Shigeru Miyamoto, president of Nintendo, does not use Facebook optimally because he does not update
his page regularly, does not post relavent content that his audience expects of him, and does not drive popularity to
his product.
I'm picking Nicole Guerriero as a celebrity I really like but I don't think she's using her instagram platform as efficiently

needs to do to better his grades.
The student ends up graduating and he realizes it's always better to approach
things the right way before they get worse.
how exam cramming is bad for mental health Students cramming every last minute, using Adderall to cram. Students get mentally exhausted and change in how they react.
A situational comedy about what happens when classes are cancelled the next
day.
Friends will be breakdancing, shuffling, and working out at the gym in order to
show their excitement. All the friends convene together to have fun at night and hang out.
My baby cousin dancing to a Taylor Swift song. Dancing to a song is the action. My cousin will fall over from dancing too much, then laugh.
