Over the past couple of days, several news stories and sports events have gathered a huge buzz on Twitter. Two stories in particular that set people off are that Bruno Mars was named the half-time entertainer for Super Bowl 2014, and that George Zimmerman faced trouble with the law once again after his estranged wife called 911 claiming he was threatening her and her father with a gun. Not every celebrity tweeted about these hot stories though, as some simply used the social media outlet to share their thoughts, observations, activities and other every-day things.
Here are the top ten tweets from September 9, from the ordinary to the news commentary and everything in between:
Jay Leno made politics funny
Obama will address the nation on Syria tomorrow; which means here on NBC "America's Got Talent" will be delayed by "America's Got Problems."

George Zimmerman is waving a gun around like a guy who doesn't quite understand the Double Jeopardy Clause

George Zimmerman was probably just trying to get his sports memorabilia back.

These stars reacted to the news that Bruno Mars would be the Super Bowl half-time entertainer:
Tom Crabtree
Bruno Mars doin a 30 minute Super Bowl Halftime Show is still better than Ryan Seacrest on field for 30 seconds before a regular season game

Congrats to @BrunoMars, who (I'm assuming) NARROWLY edged me out for the Super Bowl halftime slot. I'm sure it was THIS CLOSE.
