It’s official: Twitter has become a full-blown internet phenomenon. I mean, what’s better than seeing the inner thoughts of your favorite celebs? I’ll tell you what – seeing the inner thoughts of your favorite Divas! That’s why we’ve devised a new weekly feature, titled Tweets of the Week, where we’ll take a look at what the women of wrestling have been tweeting this week: the funny, the poignant, and the random. We’ll scour Twitter and serve it up for you, complete with the requisite Diva Dirt charm.
Starting off this week at #5 is Maria (@MariaLKanellis) watching tearjerker charity show Extreme Home Makeover:
I have to admit, seeing the words “makeover” and “Maria” in close proximity makes me want to run for the hills, but it’s sweet to see anyone with a desire to do good for others. Still, I can’t shake the terrifying image of wall-to-wall leopard print and bedazzled drapery..
At #4, Layla (@mslayel) chats with foe Eve (@EveMarieTorres):
Sounds like a feud for the ages, no? Diva feuds have been settled in the ring, in a cage, even in pools filled with Egg Nog. Is the next logical step a knock down, drag-out fight in the middle of a Bath and Body Works?
#3 brings us Divas Champion Maryse (@Maryse0uellet) paying tribute to the late Farrah Fawcett in a way only she can:
The trademark “feathered” hairdo has always been attributed to Charlie’s most famous Angel, but I thought that trend faded out in the 70′s. Maybe Maryse is three decades late to the party. Hey, I hear that movie Star Wars is pretty good – I bet it’ll be a big hit! I have to say,though , Maryse pulls the look off – Farrah would be proud. Now if you excuse me I need to work on my disco dance moves, amongst other cliché things..
To see the top 2, follow the link:
Dropping in at #2, Daffney (@screamqueendaff) comments on her recent 10,000 Thumbtacks match with Taylor Wilde, not mincing words:
Never before have so few words articulated so much. I can practically feel the tacks! Daffney needs to look into writing Haiku professionally. There’s a lot of potential there.
And topping our list, our first #1, Awesome Kong (@awesomekong) makes a movie reference and displays fiscal responsibility – be still my heart!
Here’s hoping TNA pays its Knockouts well – I don’t want to see Kong serving up food in a deli or sleeping in a ratty van any time soon. Though, it would be cool to have a Bruce Springsteen song written about you. Eh, it’s a bit of a trade-off..
And that’s it for our first-ever Tweets of the Week! Be sure to keep an eye out for your favorite Knockouts and Divas and their tweets of wisdom. For a handy-dandy listing of confirmed Twitterers, check out @divadirt on Twitter and take a look at who we’re following.

I love this new feature!
I have to admit, I’ve recently rocked the Farrah Fawcett look. It’s just such a fierce look that I can’t imagine not liking. I have to agree, Maryse pulls it off well.
I might just have an odd sense of humour, but did anyone else find Maryse’s Farrah-inspired Tweet somewhat…peculiar? Most don’t pay respects to the dead by commenting on just how great their hair looked (unless you believe that to be the extent of Farrah Fawcett’s contributions), but I guess that’s what makes Maryse unique. I don’t know, I just found it odd in a slightly ‘funny’ way. Could be that pesky language/culture barrier, at work. Who knows!
Love this feature, Erin! I was definitely a Twitter hater, but I just might have to jump on the bandwagon soon. I’m just surprised Cheerleader Melissa’s Twitter overshare a few days ago: “I’m getting a brazilian… right now”. It takes a strong woman to tweet her brazilian.
Haha loves it! Kong’s Twitter should be must read for any Diva fans, she’s awesome [no pun intended].
