Twitter Celebrity Hugh Jackman To Donate $100,000 To Twitter's Charity

Just a week after he made headlines news again after he bungled for calling Sydney Opera House the Opera Center, It became famous in the net media especially on twitters people that made him announced to pledge $100,000 to any charities through recommendation of twitters.

Wolverine Star who currently holds 51,000 twitter followers and continuesly growing as more twitters are getting aware of this news. His twitter account RealHughJackman just earlier yesterday updated with a tweet:

"I will donate 100K to one individual's favorite non profit organization.Of course,you must convince me why by using 140 characters or less."


As he wants to appease his twitter followers, and appears that his in Spain during that time he updated tweets promoting X-Men Origin: Wolverine, he later added on tweets "The more passion shown for your charity the better! Get the support of your friends and teach them the importance of giving."

I think this is pretty amazing challenge to all of us who are twitterholics and found this challenge to be exciting. Twitter may probably thinking of great ideas on this concept especially that their still currently in studies on how to generate revenue on twitters page account without causing negative impact to twitters.

Wolverine twitter account is now increasing its followers including Philanthropy Australia CEO Gina Anderson who became his avid follower. She said ""Quite possibly [it's a PR stunt] but at the end of the day a community organisation is going to get a significant amount of money that they wouldn't have otherwise got,"... $100,000 is a large amount of money, he doesn't have to give it ... it's fantastic."

Wolverine too admitted that his assistant updated his account.
