What is a "follow spree" on Twitter?

[Toughflag667]

Celebrities are like "doing a follow spree" What does that mean? I thought it just means they pick random fans to follow, but the fans are like "I missed it " and stuff. How do you "miss" a follow spree? What do you have to do when a follow spree is on in order to get the celeb to follow you?

lol I don't really know because I have the same problem.. :\ Like for example, when a celebrity says that they're going to do a follow spree, they never said what time they are going to do it.. Some said that they'll do it soon.. So I just gave up because I know they wouldn't follow me anyway.... I know this didn't help but it's true....

From what I think, it's just a time when a Celebrity will follow a random bunch of fans at a certain time, as he/she won't be doing it all day. And I assume when they said they 'missed" it they meant that they didn't get followed back.
