40 sexy Twitter accounts to follow right now



Twitter can be a powerful and wonderful tool.

It can educate you, enlighten you, make you laugh and keep you up to date. But you need to follow the right accounts. Otherwise, your feed can easily fill up with boring and pointless tweets, and then before you know it, you're never checking Twitter and leveraging its power.

To help get you on the right track, Pocket-lint has put together a list of influential, famous and entertaining accounts to follow. Some of them are notable politicians, while others are celebrities, parody stories, etc. Keep in mind that this is not a complete list. We're just trying to get you started.

If you follow all these accounts, we can guarantee that you will be informed of all the latest and random news. And between all of that, you might laugh or be amazed or inspired. After all, that's really what Twitter is. Let us know in the comments if you think anyone else should be included.
