http://www.mediaite.com/online/breaking-that-tweet-about-chicken-nuggets-just-broke-ellen-degeneress-record/
The Internet came through for Wilkerson big time. In less than a week, Wilkerson had racked up 2.5 million retweets, which is not close to the 18 million he needs, but was very close to overtaking Ellen DeGeneres‘s Oscars selfie, which at that time held the record with 3.2 million retweets. She noticed, and decided to take action in the form of a PSA with Bradley Cooper, who took, and was in the selfie. They asked everyone to retweet Wilkerson so that he could possibly reach his goal, but also to retweet their tweet so that they wouldn’t lose their title. Then, she invited Wilkerson on her show to call a truce of sorts. In exchange for his asking his retweeters to retweet the Oscars selfie, she gave him a big screen TV, a year’s supply of Ellen underwear, and a warning. If Wilkerson’s tweet surpassed hers, she’d come to his house and take back the gifts, and more, though she didn’t specify what that would be. Twitter users had a different idea, By April 26th, Wilkerson was only about 140,000 tweets behind DeGeneres. Both tweets were, and are, still garnering retweets, but Wilkerson’s moved up much faster.

Why would you care about retweets? Or Twitter in general?

This seems completely in line with Ellen's style of humor, I'm not sure why TC thinks any of it is serious

Giving them free stuff is also really common and paid for by her advertisers. Chill dude --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
