The Washington Post 'Twits' series is in essence a hilarious series of Twitter monologues that offers dramatic readings of celebrity tweets. In the video above, Twitter updates from Sean Combs (@iamdiddy), Lindsay Lohan (@sevinnyne6126) and Brooke Hogan (@brookehogan) are read in epic fashion as the text is spelled out in a typewriter-style marquee across the bottom of the screen.
