The death of Ed McMahon, "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" and Perez Hilton's scuffle with Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am dominated Twitter's trending topics today, and the Twitter-Wood feed is on the case. Ashton Kutcher, Jon Favreau and plenty of others tweeted condolences to Johnny Carson's former "Tonight Show" announcer, who died today in Los Angeles.
Tweets on the latter two categories have been significantly more mixed in their sentiments, but "Revenge of the Fallen" star Tyrese Gibson maintained his Twitter vigil that's been documenting his recent film-related travels.
