Peter Facinelli is the latest celeb to win a Twitter bet.
The Twilight star recruited 500,000 followers by his Friday deadline. If he didn't, he would have handed over the backing of his movie set director's chair to best friend Rob "Rob D." DeFranco.
But since he succeeded, Mr. DeFranco is now forced to dance down Hollywood Boulevard in a bikini while singing Beyoncé's "Single Ladies" (Joe Jonas, watch out) and holding a sign that says, "Twitter Me."
Since the bet began, Facinelli's follower count had been fluctuating...
It had hit more than 500,000 by Friday, but after an hour it dipped below.
"What I had heard was that Twitter was treating the followers like spam because so many were coming in, so they were getting tossed off," Facinelli wrote in an email to yours truly. "So at the end of the day, I'll never know if my follower count is right, but I do know that we had over 500,000, which was the magic number for Rob doing the bikini dance."
DeFranco is set to hit the streets on June 30. He tweeted over the weekend about trying on bikinis, going on a crash diet and getting manscaped with a wax.
