If you could guess which Real Housewife of Orange County would you peg to PAY for Twitter Followers? Ha! Accoring to former house husband Micah Tanous, Peggy’s husband, some of the wives may be paying to look more popular than they actually are!
Micah tweeted, “I just answered a call from the company that is SELLING all the current #RHOC cast their Twitter followers, What a F’ing Joke! Fake likes!?! Current cast members just got pissed I tweeted that… Too funny. Oh god, what do you think these $2500 “PR” agents that promise “social media marketing” are doing. The software only costs $50!”
It’s hard to believe someone would be desperate enough to BUY followers, so rumorfix.com took a look at twitter counter to see some results, take a look:

Notice a difference in consistency? Alexis Bellino seems to be the only housewife with a dramatic increase in followers. Which is extremely high, because the show isn’t airing right now. Alexis took to twitter to respond to Micah’s accusations, “Beyond crazy. I wouldn’t know the 1st thing about this & would never want fake fans following me.”
