Peter Facinelli Claims Victory on Twitter Bet

by Will on June 20, 2009 · Comments

in Peter Facinelli

Peter Facinelli has claimed victory on his Twitter bet, the spoils including his pal Rob DeFranco singing “All the Single Ladies” in a bikini and giving away his Twilight director’s chair backing to one of his followers. To my eyes, it reads 268,725 followers–but according to the video, a fluke proves he reached the 500,000 mark that he needed for victory.

    He is totally "adorkable" which adds to his cuteness!

    What a great celeb! Hope his keeps this level of fun about him as he gains even more popularity!
  • Yay, Peter u rock! :DD

    "Live long and prosper" -(lol unintentional sparkle pun, my bad) And, like that, Dr McSparkle just went ^^^^^^ on the awesome scale.
  • cutesweetiezzz

    What a dork. (I mean it nicely). He is cute and adorable. It is nice to see a famous person being a big nerd. I am glad he won! Congrats Peter! Can't want to see the Hollywood Blvd. Dance!
  • dr_cullens1wife
    omG!!!!! i was on twitter the moment he posted video love him!!!!!
    can not wait to see if he goes to comic con san diego...
  • Lizzz14
    I love Peter Facinelli
    I don't find him annoying at all, I think hes great in interviews, and hes very open. He likes to get his fans involved in his life, and also likes to let them know whats gonig on with him. I don't think hes one of those stuck up megastars, rather from interviews, and his youtube videos, he seems like such a sweet person.
  • Kimberlina Dirty Pirate Hooker
    I heart you Peter! I can't wait to meet you next month *squeals like a tween*
  • JoUK
    Yay!
    Peter won!
    I want to win that chair backing!
    *runs off to figure out as many riddles as possible!*
  • Twi-Hardness
    And I was being all sad for Peter because I thought he had lost!!! Peter is awesome! I can't believe he did that! I LOVE HIM!
  • Carol60
    Woohoo! We Twilight Fans rock! I bet all of us combined could do ANYTHING.
  • kerbear585
    i followed him but i don't see that he got 500,000. i wonder if he is still saying he won so a fan can get the chair. what a sweetie he is =]
  • JenniferPattinson
    i think he is hilarious he is so funny and down to earth its a shame more celebs arnt like him :( oh well haha but i think all the twilight stars are down to earth to be honest especially rob ;)
  • rpattzgirl
    Peter's awesome, and I love him-but really don't care about this-although I did participate by following...
  • CamilleEmma
    congrats!!!! I'm following you actually! @CamilleEmma so i guess i helped, lol..
    anyways. I look forward to see the video of Rob DeFranco's dance wearing a bikini..
    congrats again!
  • bean_Bad 2 the RathBone[Mar09]
    Victory!! Fair play to Rob DeFranco for admitting defeat on a technicality. Cannot wait to see that video on YouTube! LOL
  • Jackie
    Lmao Peter is so funny. I hope all of you loyal fans who have Twitter are following him like I am!

    I wonder how he is going to figure out how one of his fans gets the chair backing?

    Now put your hands up!
  • Kay
    WOHOO!! *doing happy dance*
    I'm glad he won I knew he could do it.
    he looked so funny (as always) singing all the single ladies

    YOU GO PETER!!
  • Yay 30th or something! Woot Woot. I worked really hard..JK

    I love Peter! I remember seeing the number really high and then it seemed like Twitter just started going up and down - SOOOO I'm so happy he won!

    All The Single Ladies....
  • Robaholic
    lol...I'm glad he won. He is so cute and funny.. I love his little Robot thing at the end and when he does the "all the single ladies" thing.
  • giggsy_girl
    yay way to go Peter!!! we love ya
  • Isabella (my real name, lol)
    Peter Facinelli is kinda annoying.. his character Carlisle is completely different, the way he talks/acts etc, which shows he IS a very good actor. But seriously in all his interviews he comes across as immature and annoying, lol.

    Don't hate me everyone, Im a huge twilight fan (more the books than the movies) but looking forward to New Moon! (& I do love Peter's 'Carlisle' just not Peter himself!)
  • Robaholic
    I don't find him immature or annoying at all. He just likes to have fun and doesn't let his fame go to his head. I like the fact that he isn't some uptight stuck up actor and I love that he interacts with his fans through Youtube and twitter and other sites.
  • belladonna101
    I agree, he is totally unjaded and conceited. I also like how he is with fans as well. Most actors wouldn't get his fans to interact with him on twitter and youtube. when you think about it he is almost my age and there is nothing wrong with being laid back. the twilight backing is going to be a prized piece I'll give you that.
  • Kay
    I was going to say the same thing. his personality is what makes him great and that is one of the things I really like about him. he really enjoys what he does and he wants to share his things with his fans..not every celebrity get to do that.
  • bean_Bad 2 the RathBone[Mar09]
    Totally agree Kay. Peter is one of the most fun and accessible Twilight stars. It's great that he shares so much with the fans. He seems a lot of fun - and is extremely sexy too! :D
  • Oh goodness me, were is TSH?? She'll flip when she reads that comment! LOL

    I love Peter, think he's great and has a brilliant personality, and he doesn't have his head stuck up his own butt crack like other typical Hollywood actors. And what makes him even more adorable is the fact that he worships his wife and kids!
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    My EXACT thoughts D!!! TSH will be back on Monday and speak her heart out... hehe! BUT since I LOVE Peter too, I will come to his defense!! I cannot understand why somebody would take his amazing nature againts him to not like him... I mean, I consider myself a lucky fan that has an awesome cast like no other!! Peter, my GOD, he's only 35 and can joke, mess around and connect with his fans because THAT'S how he is and THAT'S how his fans love him... dude... chilax.. Peter is awesome.... WE got your back Peter... always =)
  • LOL you guys! TSH is not at all happy with some random picking on Peter....how on earth can someone find him annoying?! He is the most lovable guy ever and everyone loves the moment swings those doors open and walks in as Carlisle in Twilight.....*runs to put the DVD back on and watch Carlisle bringing sexy back*
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    LOL
    *runs to see Dr. Cullen's sexy entrance w/TSH*
    Hehe.... I love that part... trully bringing sexy back!
    Yea girl, I think it's best that we ignore such comments.... they come from people who don't know how to appreciate the wonderful man that is Peter Facinelli! But it's ok, he's got PLENTY that love him and others who don't, shouldn't bother him ;-)
  • Robaholic
    Exactly!
  • XeniaCullen
    How can you push me from my leading position? I was so quick at commenting... :( Is it cause someone liked your comment?
  • Robaholic
    It's probably because Isabellas comment was the last one for someone to "like".
  • XeniaCullen
    Mhm... maybe... And I was so happy for being on top of the comment-list :( Maybe it was a sign from god to tell me that I need to keep learning and stop commenting... ;)
  • bean_Bad 2 the RathBone[Mar09]
    Yeah, whoever has the most 'likes' goes to the top. Although I can't think who would have 'liked' her comment. Peter's great!
  • XeniaCullen
    Thx for explaining :) You get a "Like" for that :D
  • Sparks
    Pete's cool. He's just down with the kidz man!
  • YAY ! WE MADE IT !!! They picked my birthday for the bikini-dance, that will be the best present EVER *LMAO*
  • Who's 'sited for the video?????
  • Sparks
    Pick me Pete, pick me!! Im a nice normal fan!
    *unfolds cloning kit ready to find stray rob hair on chair back*
  • Marystat
    He won, twitter was messed up and his follower numbers kept bouncing all over the place, there is a screencap of him having OVER 500 000 followers and then with refresh it dropped to about 200 000 so clearly there was something wrong. Then Twitter verfied this. SO yep Peter won the bet fair and square hehe!!
  • TWILOVER96
    I had a feeling he was going to win!! And i was right!! He is HALARIOUS too!!
  • mirushi (ROBSTEN_junkie)
    I succeed to capture the moment he got over(!) 500K.. and one click on refresh button just second later-it drop to 200K again..

Actually he just thanks everyone who followed him and declared that Rob is going to do the street dance on the 30th of June and that he's planning some kind of event where he wants to invite and thank all his followers...

  • mak1026
    I'm glad Peter won. It seems like he had a lot of fun, and what a sweetheart. It would be great if whoever won the chair back would pay it forward and auction it for charity or something.

    Okay, so I replied before watching the video. What an adorably dorky vid, LOL.
  • oh this is cool i sent in this tip LOL .........so happy for peter .... i think its time to see the BIKINI DANCE lol :D
  • I know we've all been campaigning for him all week, so happy he won!

  • Sparks
    "uh uh oh, uh uh oh, uh uh oh, oh oh oh

  • bella7
    So did Peter win anything?
  • XeniaCullen
    Well he won the chance to laugh at his friend! He's not going to let him forget that day :P And he doesn't lose his Twilight- chair back...
  • bella7
    But isn't he giving his chair-back to a follower anyway? Also, I guess seeing one's friend sing and dance in a bikini would be a nice prize. :P
  • XeniaCullen
    Yeah you're right... I meant he doesn't lose it to someone who doesn't appreciate it ;) Cause Rob is no fan of twilight
  • bella7
    Oh yeah, you're right. At least his chair back's going to a fan now. :)
  • Sparks
    Rob could complain but i think he WANTS to do it!
  • They have an email confirming it from Twitter themselves. There was a glitch in the system a couple of days ago. Users even have screen shots of Peter's followers over the 500,000 mark. It kept on going up and down. I witnessed it for myself.

    Peter did indeed win, Twitter confirmed it.
  • Neoma
    Congrats Peter! :p
    Hope you two had fun with the bet..
    ...and I just have to say that I feel a lil sorry for you, Rob
  • Sparks
    Nice. Go Pete :)
  • MB . Team Slade Brigade 3/09
    hmm...not sure if he's really won.

    ok maybe :)

    awesome. i'm a believer!
  • lol ... now to see who gets the backing of the actor's chair.......
  • MB . Team Slade Brigade 3/09
    with the potential to extract rob's DNA! =)
  • XeniaCullen
    Yes he did. Twitter confirmed that there was a problem on Wednesday (I think) and that he actually had more than 500.000 followers and Rob Defranco conceded, so he has to do the dance
  • MB . Team Slade Brigade 3/09
    well than good for him! cheers.
  • bella7
    Second?
  • XeniaCullen
    first! Great Video!
  • XeniaCullen
    I'm glad he won! So do we have to go to this event in order to have a chance to win the chair back? or is he chosing amongst his followers on twitter?
  • bean_Bad 2 the RathBone[Mar09]
    I think he's just choosing from his Twitter followers. Hope I win!
  • TwiHardRach
    yeah, he's doing some sort of competition for his twitter followers... so i'm gonna be on his twitter constantly now haha
