Funny, I hear some of them are considered celebrities in their own right. A couple are true diva's (or whack jobs that need institutionalization...same thing).

There are only a hand full of semi-famous voice actors in the united states.

The vast majority of people who do voice work get no recognition at all aside from a hand full of hardcore fans.

Classic example of a bad use of Twitter. Complete waste.

Really. See, this could have been a chance to see some neat tidbits. It's okay to say "Walking home in the heat was a drag" or "I'm off to make blueberry muffins!" or whatever, but I don't see the point in mentioning when you eat, when you bathe, and when you sleep. I'll occasionally write something like "Bored. Staring at a tree outside my window" or "Got to sleep in for once", but not every day (or even week) and nothing to the extent of cataloging a life.

But, to be honest, I only made a Twitter account to ask Yen Press a question. Now I just use it for random updates (...every few days), to enter contests/giveaways, and to ask companies questions. Yeah.

I wonder that too..How people on twitter pretty much monologue their daily life.(With the very small amount of characters in the "Tweeting" space..)Kinda don't get why they would bother but yeah joined twitter just to see what some of my friends were doing on it that aside guess this would be slightly interesting if there was some sort of list translating what she is saying haha. Oh and i it just me or the picture of her in the article has her looking alot like Chie.(From persona 4.) In it?

So why do I keep hearing Vic Mignog....Vic Mangina....That guy that does Edward Elric in the Fullmetal Alchemist Series as being well-known?
