The 5 Most Shocking Celebrity Twitter Feeds

If, like us, you've been alive for the past 20 years, here's what you know about Mike Tyson:

• Rape

• Ear Bite

• Face Tattoo

And that about sums it up for the uninformed Tyson observer. Throw in a few boxing matches, along with assault arrests, white tigers and Robin Givens, and the bulk of Tyson lore is covered. Think again.

What His Twitter Feed Taught Us:

Iron Mike is just like the rest of us, provided the rest of us are peaceful vegans who goad our followers into telling us about the good deeds they do for others. This just in: We're not.

And then you have the pics:

These are not the expected words of a guy who once bit half an ear off of one opponent and threatened to eat another opponent's children. Hello, Earth to Mike: Children and ears of heavyweight boxers are not vegetables. It turns out the vegan thing just started in 2009, and although Tyson converted to Islam back in 1994, he's only gotten gung-ho for Allah in the past year and a half.

Also, for a guy who once failed his GED test, he takes more care to spell and punctuate everything properly than anyone else on Twitter. Holy crap, everything we thought we knew is a lie.

She has readers assembling their pumpkin-carving tools 11 days before Halloween. She scheduled "take down decorations" as if that were a thing you have to put on a calendar, as if you'd totally forget there were rotting pumpkins on your porch and magic hags dangling from your ceiling. This is the Martha Stewart that we know. Someone who has made a career out of perfection and attention to detail. Someone who gets pissed when her cameraman accidentally hits a studio member in the face. And to clarify, not pissed because of the accident, but because the audience member had the nerve to gush blood all over the place.

And we don't mind, because you don't get to build a brand like Martha Stewart Living without being a stickler for detail and perfection, right? Right. And yet ...

What Her Twitter Feed Taught Us:

The Grammar Nazi of the housekeeping world is not a Grammar Nazi of the grammar world.

Wait, what? Can you even decipher that?

OK, so maybe her phone was malfunctioning, or her cat jumped on her keyboard in the course of that one particular tweet.

If so, it happens a lot:

"Yeah, but it's Twitter," you're probably saying, as if this is no big deal. As if all conventions of grammar, punctuation and articulation fly out the window just because it's social media. Bullhonkey. Martha Stewart publishes her own magazine. In print.

Still, like her securities fraud conviction and sexually tense VMA appearance with Busta Rhymes in 1997, Martha's imperfections probably only make her more endearing.

Say what you want about the last living bastion of the grunge/goth fusion of the late 90s, but no one can deny that a) Billy Corgan has written some kickass songs over the years, and b) he also once posed this picture:

You see a picture like that and you expect that Corgan is some kind of Gothic vampire, warlocking it up in his haunted Chicago castle, writing lyrics in the blood of his critics, scribbling poetry about black roses and broken pinky swears. What you don't expect is what you find in his Twitter feed.

What His Twitter Feed Taught Us:

Billy Corgan: sports nut, God lover, believer of chemtrails, overall nice guy.

One of those things was not like the others. Sprinkled among the positive energy tweets, winky smiley emoticons and heartwarming notes of gratitude for his fans are a few things you wouldn't expect from Corgan.

First of all, sports. Cub love, Bear love, WrestleMania. Corgan loves wrestling like a stripper loves leopard print (though WWE fans already knew that). Included are frequent shout-outs to Mick Foley and Hulk Hogan.

You start to get this feeling that despite his reputation, Corgan is a "regular folks" kind of guy.

Until you see this:

And this:

Yowza.

For those not in the know, chemtrails are not your usual rock star cause. You know how aircraft leave those cool streaky trails behind them? Those guys are usually called contrails, or condensation trails, and are composed of water condensing from the exhaust of aircraft. Easy enough. But some conspiracy theorists allege that it's not water condensation at all, but chemicals that the government is purposely and secretly raining down on us. They point to grid-like patterns and the long staying power of the trails as their evidence. Not, you know, science, but anecdotes and observations. Mr. Corgan is one of those theorists.

Aaaaaand then we have this:

Honestly, the man is going to wind up in a bunker in the wilderness with Randy Quaid.

What His Twitter Feed Taught Us:

Ice-T LOVES video games.

Word? Word. Even if you only go back as far as the beginning of September 2010 on his Twitter feed, you'll find no fewer than 98 mentions of the word "game." Dead Rising gets 13 mentions. Try MW2 (Modern Warfare 2) and you'll see eight mentions. Fallout, as in Fallout: New Vegas gets five. Gears 3 gets three.

Ice-T not only tweets extensively about his gaming passion but also interacts with fans over it. And P.S., reading Ice's feed as a nongamer is straight gibberish. Glitches, 140-character reviews, even the tedium of working with those punks at GameStop are fair game for Ice:

Finding out Ice-T is a hardcore gamer would be like discovering Al Capone was a D&D man, which would also be pretty cool if you think about it.

Look at that thing. Look at it. Anyone who's actually seen Eraserhead recognizes this mutant E.T.-looking abortion of a creature as the centerpiece of that sick, sick movie. So, based on that picture above, you'd think that Lynch's feed would be equally opaque, if not high-as-a-kite-Crispin-Glover levels of baffling.

What His Twitter Feed Taught Us:

David Lynch really enjoys carpentry:

Though he occasionally switches it up:

Again with the weekends! What, does this freak have some kind of ... furniture and nice weekend fetish? OK, so maybe he's just a down-to-earth, mild-mannered old man who enjoys nice things.

Though we did find this:

We can't imagine what that is, but we're very afraid that someone died when it happened.
