On twitter,how do you get the little Blue check mark beside your account?

[Keith W]

On some of the more famous people's twitter accounts,there is like a little blue check mark beside their twitter name when you look them up and if you move the mouse over it,it'll say verified account.I think the reason for it is to kind of let you know that its their official account. But I wanted to know can everybody get the little blue check mark beside their twitter name when someone look them up? If so how is it done?
