Most celebrity bios on Twitter are nothing more than spaces to plug an album, movie, fragrance, book, or DVD. However, there are quite a few who make an effort to be like the rest of us and show a little personality. Naturally, the results vary. Some fail because the star is trying a wee bit too hard, others not nearly enough. Here, we present a list of the 25 Corniest Celebrity Twitter Bios.

Just 'cause you can referrence video games it doesnt make you any cooler or more ironic than those nerds at Comicon. Besides, if you're going to quote audio for a video game to serve as your biography, you don't go with Street Fighter. You choose Mortal Kombat. Duh.
My apologies, but the reference only works if the show you're referencing is still on the air. Don't blame me, Jennifer. Blame CBS.
I'm torn. On one end, no one should ever quote Mike Jones in this decade. Then again, that song with the Ying Yang Twins goes ... and it's Miley Cyrus. Okay, fine: Corny, but comical and kind of fantastic.
Oh, come on, Lindsay. You can do better than this. And where's your "thug lilfe" hashtag?
If your aim is to ruffle feathers by way of shock and awe, you've got to constantly rotate your band of insults. So yeah, time to use new slurs to spook the parents of your fans, Tyler.
Maybe I'm picky, but I expect a hit songwriter to offer more than an analogy my uncle abused to death 20 years ago.
Ray J's been calling himself a star-creator for several years now. Not only is that claim highly questionable, but even if it were true, based on the kind of star you think you've created, we're not grateful.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's moving up several spots in the running to be named the most pretentious R&B singer of them all? If Keri Hilson is a "designer of audible art," NeNe Leakes must be a sculpter of shade.
Corny, but cute in a "I'm so glad my auntie knows how to tweet" sort of way. However, one more sentence and the ratio will shift to the wrong side.
I want her to stop trying to make fetch happen, especially if she's going to butcher Marvin Gaye's classics."I Try" was cool, though.
When is the last time this original Destiny's Child-member-turned-solo-act released any song, let alone one about love? I rest my case.
Corny because the fairest Kardashian of them all is throwing it in our faces that we can never escape her...like herpes. You've already won, Kimberly. No need to gloat.
"My history is no mystery?" That's a lot of big talk from a dude who's biggest claim to fame is a song largely consisting of the phrase "bump, bump, bump."
Of all of Tyrese's apparent gifts, humility has yet to be taken out of layaway. The same for the missing commas in his bio.
What is "I am not here, she is me!" supposed to mean anyway? Ugh, never mind. I don't want to catch it. There are many who fall into the "Oh, you so deep" category, but I expect more from the otherwise snarky star of Basketball Wives: LA.
Tyra Banks, you treated half the world with Sports Illustrated photo shoots and Victoria Secret runways, and the other with America's Next Top Model. That said, you've really got to stop running "smize" into the ground.
Miguel's hair already screams "Frankie Lymon's first perm," but one look at his Twitter bio and you would swear The Fonz found his way to social media. Can someone pass this dude his invitation to the next sock hop already?
Given the year he's had, it's not surprising that Chad Johnson is feeling remorseful. Even so, @ or dap @Jesus_M_Christ already, Chad. Obviously, you've got something to say.
Nick Cannon is as synonymous with corniness as Popeye's is with delicious, cajun-fried morsels of chicken. Needless to say, it's not surprising to see that his Twitter bio keeps up with the legacy he's building. He's in on the act—i.e. calling himself "General Cornball Wallace"—but yo, must he be so good at it?
Maybe it's because she's done so much already that everything is easy breezy for her nowadays, but you'd just expect someone like Missy Elliott to have bigger dreams than "female rappers uniting and going on 106 & Park together." But you know, your life, your call. Love you, Missy.
