Charlie Sheen gets Twitter deal
Charlie Sheen scored his first Twitter sponsor on Monday: the online internship site Internships.com.
The "Two and a Half Men" star has signed a deal to post an endorsed message for Internships.com as part of efforts to cash in on his fast-growing presence on Twitter. His paid message, which appeared on Monday afternoon, featured a posting for a "social media intern" for Mr. Sheen.
"I'm looking to hire a #Winning INTERN with #TigerBlood," read Mr. Sheen's tweet.
Mr. Sheen's presence on Twitter has taken off since he launched his account on March 1 with help from Los Angeles-based Ad.ly, a start-up that brokers social media endorsements for big brands including Toyota, Hyatt and Microsoft. The actor has attracted more than two million followers, setting a record for the fastest growing Twitter account in history. Mr. Sheen's messages have been among the top trending topics on the site during the past week.
"We are harnessing the power of Hollywood to help ignite our platform," said Robin Richards, chief executive of Internships.com.
