Ben Stiller loves using Twitter as you can tell by the videos he’s been pumping out through Red Hour Studios. Stiller previously talked about Twitter with Mickey Rooney and now he’s talking to Ryan Seacrest about it.

In this video, Stiller asks Seacrest to give him a shout out on Twitter in an effort to gain more followers.

Seacrest has about 1.9 million followers and Stiller has about 150,000. Seacrest said that he’d be willing to do it for money and that he “doesn’t even talk to anybody that has less than 900,000 followers.” When Stiller first announced Red Hour studios on YouTube, he introduced his family.

I believe that comedians and social media are a great mix. This is a great way for comedians to spread their jokes directly to the people without having to worry about edits or whether it will actually be seen on TV or in the movies after the final cuts. This is why I thoroughly enjoyed Ben Stiller’s greeting to his Facebook fans and Twitter followers.

Ben Stiller is famously known for his roles in Meet The Parents, Tropic Thunder, A Night At The Museum, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, Starsky & Hutch, Zoolander, etc. “Computers are taking over the world, so it is time to get on the bus or get left behind” said Stiller in the above video. Its funny because its true.

In the video Stiller introduces his family which is one of the funniest parts of the video. Stiller can be found on Facebook or on Twitter. It looks like Stiller’s Twitter desktop app of choice is TweetDeck by the way.
