Hollywood may be a place full of famous faces, but on Twitter, anyone can be popular, from movie stars to CNN hosts to, ahem, former "Star Trek: The Next Generation" actors. Brand X set out to track down the social networking site's most followed Los Angeles users to see how Twitter's local cool kids stack up. Our rules were simple: Must be an actual person (sorry, FunnyorDie); must not be an assistant or publicity team (sorry, Britney Spears); and must list Los Angeles, L.A. or some other variation as his or her location (sorry, Kim Kardashian). So who made the cut? Click through for our authoritative list.
