#Top40Tweets: @KatyPerry signs divorce papers with a smiley face, more

At the end of each week, #Top40Tweets lists a cross-section of artists on the current pop charts and puts their tweets on display (along with their current chart number) for your enjoyment/scrutiny. This week, we look at 6 artists on the Billboard Music Charts.

#14: Katy Perry – The One That Got Away

That’s a pretty austere tweet for someone who signs her divorce papers with a smiley face:

It’s all good until one of the strippers takes one of those things in the eye, falls, and breaks her collarbone.

FUN FACT: According to his IMDB Trivia page (reliable source, I know) Ludacris still drives a 1992 Acura, because it “keeps him grounded.”

(Uncharted) Keri Hilson – Knocks You Down

Sounds like the chanting mantra of some weird cult. “Dream in colour, thank your angels. Dream in colour, thank your angels.”

FUN FACT: Before hitting it big with her solo career, Keri Hilson paid the bills as a back-up vocalist and a songwriter. She co-wrote a slew of hits before she had her own record out, including “Gimme More” by Britney Spears.

#24: David Guetta feat. Usher – Without You

Even Baby Usher won’t sugar coat how short his Dad is. “I’m 5’2 and a half with the right pair of shoes, son.”

FUN FACT: I was being mean, earlier. Usher is actually 5’8″.

#141 (Billboard Hot 200): Mac Miller – Blue Slide Park

Or maybe a rapper by day, and an observational comedian by night?
