Some celebrity tweets have put on a good show for the paparazzi
This week, Canadian crooner Michael Bublé has been making merry. At least if you believe one of his tweets, which has suggested he is now singing about Christmas sweaters.
The warmer weather this year has spurred a Christmas jumper season.
One of Britain’s top online retailers, Very.co.uk, has suggested buyers buy a partner a seasonal knit, by linking it with a vote for the event that would be the retailer’s worst.
A couple of years ago, while promoting his films, he was hit by a freak mishap when his microphone fell from his hand and hit a young fan in the head.
He later told his millions of followers: “Sorry, kids. Watching the new Mission Impossible: Fallout trailer made my mic/transmitter fall out of my hand while I was talking. Got caught on a fan below me. Damage not serious, just black eye and scratch.”
