Tweets of joy!

Kim Kardashian now has 5 million-plus Twitter followers!

The star, 29, reached the microblogging milestone Monday night -- and she wasn't at a hot celeb party or red carpet when it happened, either.

PHOTOS: How she's overshared on Twitter

"Last night I was glued to my laptop when I saw I was close to getting my five millionth follower on Twitter," she blogged.

"I couldn't believe it when it happened! Its such a mind blowing feeling to know so many of you are out there reading my tweets," she gushed.

"I can't believe it! I love you so much."

The single lady has another reason to celebrate as well. She and big sister Kourtney, 30, just nabbed another reality spinoff: Kourtney and Kim Take New York, set in the Big Apple, debuts January 2011.

Thanking her fans, she added, "Twitter is amazing!! It keeps me connected to you guys even when I'm on the go. It's like you are all right there with me. I love that I can ask your advice or your opinion on something and can read your responses straight away... it's just fab!"

    Can people be really this stupid and clueless.

    This is news because nobody can believe how stupid our society has become. I betcha the majority of those "followers" -- sounds like the Moonies cult -- but I betcha the majority of those followers are age 18-35 women. The 30+ aged women who follow her are the most pathetic. They really tell you why moms need to stay home and raise their own children because this age group really missed out on positive female role models.

    and this is news because?

    No, I'm not one of her followers, but I have looked at her acct., her tweets are kinda boring. Following her only makes her head bigger....And I didn't think it could get any bigger. Humble pie baby, Humble pie!

    This means we have at least 5 million twits in this world. At least.

    Is she gaining weight? I agree that people are stupid!

    I am disgusted that i live in a society where people made this fame wh*re, this nobody piece of crap feel like she is something important and did or does anything relevant to be around. She has 5 million followers on twitter. WHY THE HELL? And she says she was glued to her laptop the whole time. How pathetic. Way to make it obvious that you were the one that leaked your own sex tape to be famous. She must have thought, "damn, why do i have so many people following me on a website? What did i even contribute to society? What do i do to be around? I leaked a sex tape, put silicon in my behind, have had countless plastic surgeries while constantly lying with a straight face, claiming to be surgery and botox free, and not only are these idiots buying it all, they are actually following me. WOW. I can't believe it." Yes, this is something we can't believe, either, kimbo. The really sad part is that whenever you read comments like mine, you just dismiss them by accusing people of being jealous of you not to deal with the FACT that we're speaking the truth. YOU AND YOUR USELESS, TRASH OF A FAMILY NEED TO GO AWAY...FAR, FAR AWAY.

    What's there to follow? She's a self absorbed, money hungry mongrel.

  • October 06, 2010 - 12:08am Katherine Sobrero

    i agree 100% with the comment below me.. and how is this honestly "news?"

  • October 05, 2010 - 11:09pm Lisa Patterson

    Its official there are 5 million people in this world that apparently do NOT have a life of their own. All 5 million of ya'll need to get a Hobby. And reading celebrity "tweets" is not included in that category. lmao!

  • October 05, 2010 - 10:55pm Gail Fitzpatrick

    I'm not among her followers. But I don't "follow" any celebrities on twitter. I like Kim, she seems nice. But I have a problem with "following" a person who doesn't even know I exist.
