How Dionne Warwick Became The Best Celebrity To Follow On Twitter

December 18, 2020

In the past month, Dionne Warwick has become one of the best celebrities to follow on Twitter.

While she's by no means new to the Twittersphere — she's had a Twitter account since 2012 — her latest tweets have gotten the Internet talking, and quite frankly, they have become a highlight of 2020.

When the 80-year-old singer's not calling out celebrities for their "unique" names or effortlessly shading her critics, Miss Warwick is simply brightening up the days of her 329.4K (and counting) followers with her charm, humor, and unmatched sarcasm.

With the help of her niece/social media strategist Brittani Warwick, Dionne has become a Twitter pro in recent weeks, hilariously clapping back at her followers and sharing tweets you can't help but laugh at. While the legendary singer is known for bringing light and joy through her music, she's definitely leaving her mark on Twitter.
