BermanBraun Interactive and MSN today announced the launch of a cutting-edge new Wonderwall.com franchise, the Twitterview. With increasing numbers of celebrities embracing the Twitter social platform as a means of interacting with fans, Wonderwall saw an opportunity to further engage with the stars with their followers. As Wonderwall and the celebrity Twitterviewee conduct their interview, fans of both the star and the site can submit their own questions, then follow along in real time to watch the Twitterview unfold. Afterward, Wonderwall packages and posts the transcript in a reader-friendly format for fans to enjoy at their leisure and send to friends.
The latest celebrity Twitterview subject, Joel McHale, recently tweeted with Wonderwall about his new NBC sitcom “Community.” McHale plays a fast-talkin’ lawyer, Jeff Winger, on the hit comedy series. 2009 has proven to be McHale’s breakout year, complete with a role opposite Matt Damon in Steven Soderbergh’s “The Informant,” but fans may know him best as the host, writer and producer of “The Soup.” He is currently touring the country, bringing his stand up comedy act to sold-out audiences. Catch a glimpse of McHale’s quick wit via his Twitterview with Wonderwall:
