Twitter is a great equalizer. No matter how rich or famous you are, everyone gets the same 140-character limit. And you don’t need special access to interact with your favorite celebrities—who themselves get to act as fans, following feeds of other celebs they may or may not ever interact with on a regular basis. Here, we tracked down some of our local A-listers, and scoped out their Twitter feeds to see who they follow.
