We here at Hollywood Crush spend a lot of time on Twitter (it's sort of tough to stay away when the likes of Ryan Gosling, James Franco and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are hanging around on the Twitterverse!). So when Time magazine put out their list of the 140 Best Twitter feeds, we couldn't wait to see which celebrity tweeters we know, love and follow made the cut.

While we were psyched to see some of our favorites like Taylor Swift, Neil Patrick Harris, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Conan O'Brien, Mindy Kaling, Jimmy Fallon and Ellen DeGeneres, we couldn't help but notice some glaring omissions.

Check out five of our favorite tweeters who were inexplicably left off the list after the jump!

From Sarah Jessica Parker to Aretha Franklin (as Questlove tweeted to her, "#HappyBdayAreatha she is the Queen PERIOD") today was chock-full of celebrity birthdays. Among the many stars celebrating their March 25th births was Katherine McPhee, who received plenty of Twitter love, including from actress Ashley Madekwe, who posted, "@katharinemcphee Happy Birthday lovely! xo." Katherine, who turned 27 today, wrote, "Thk u to everyone makin me feel real special! Love birthdays! & Love u all!" There was also some b-day love for Aly Michalka, including a tweet from her sis AJ Michalka, who told her, "Happy 22nd Birthday to my unbelievable sister...I could not love you more Aly..."

In addition to all these, there's also a "Twilight"-related birthday today! Kiowa Gordon, or as he's better known to Twi-hards, Embry Call, turned 21 and got a whole lot of well-wishes on the social networking site. It seems Kiowa (pictured) and his co-star Tinsel Korey were taking the wolf pack to Las Vegas for some celebrations, when she shared, "Happy 21st Birthday Precious!!! @Circakigordon See you tomorrow!!! #KGTKVegas2011BdayWknd." Here's hoping they run into "The Hangover" wolf pack!

This week, the cast of the upcoming animated flick "Rio" held the world premiere for their movie in—wouldn't ya know—Rio de Janeiro! Jesse Eisenberg (who voices the main character Blu) and his co-stars headed down to Brazil for all the colorful fun, including Will.i.am. who snapped pictures with his "Rio" pal Anne Hathaway (pictured) and shared with followers, "Me and ann hathaway in rio...she sings the fabulous by the way...I recorded her myself... http://yfrog.com/hswsjjlwj." But they weren't the only ones enjoying themselves, as Jamie Foxx, who also lends his voice to the movie, previously posted, "I'm canceling my life.... I'm in Brazil to stay....."

Meanwhile, back in La La Land, the ladies of "Sucker Punch" held their premiere on Wednesday night. Everyone from Emily Browning to Vanessa Hudgens walked the red carpet, and it seems Zack Snyder's dreamy caper is already getting raves. "Juno" writer and all-around kick-butt chick herself Diablo Cody checked out the film and gave her own unique thoughts on it from her Twitter, "Saw the amazing "Sucker Punch" last night. I have officially retitled it "Holly Madison vs. the World."

Hollywood woke to the sad news this morning that legendary actress Elizabeth Taylor, best remembered for her works in classics such as "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof," "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?," "Cleopatra," "National Velvet" and "Giant" died at the age of 79 from congestive heart failure. The iconic star, who was also known for her dedication to HIV and AIDS research, her trailblazing fashion choices, her classic White Diamonds ads, her friendship with Michael Jackson and her many marriages, was remembered by her famous friends and fans on Twitter today.

The eternally classic and hip Elizabeth had her own Twitter and many of her followers retweeted her words of wisdom today, including one from July 2010 that read, "Give. Remember always to give. That is the thing that will make you grow." In fact, giving was one of Elizabeth's strongest suits. Fans of "Sex and the City" will no doubt recall the name of Charlotte's beloved pooch, Elizabeth Taylor, as Kristin Davis shared, "Elizabeth gave us permission at SATC for the storyline using her name.She also sent all of us sweet gifts! so sweet! #RIPElizabethTaylor."

Many other celebs were lucky enough to cross paths with Dame Elizabeth, including Kim Kardashian who interviewed her just last month for Harper's Bazaar, writing from her page, "I am so saddened about the passing of Elizabeth Taylor! She will always be my idol!" Chad Lowe recalled his time with Elizabeth, "I had the great fortune to work with #ElizabethTaylor. She really was extraordinary, so kind and caring. An awesome talent" and Steve Martin shared, "I met Elizabeth Taylor several times. She was witty and self-deprecating, which I found surprising and delightful. She loved to laugh.”

Check out the rest of today's Elizabeth Taylor tribute tweets from the stars, including Sophia Bush urging followers to make donations to her charities. Follow us @hollywoodcrush to get even more celebrity and pop culture news around the clock!

Divas sure do love to make us wait. It's been over two years since Britney Spears has released an album, and fans had been getting antsy. With the release of Femme Fatale next week, Brit is making a lot of folks anxious, including fellow pop star Kylie Minogue who tweeted, "I am READY for the @britneyspears album....love what I have heard!!! WhooOoOoOPP!!!!" But Brit wasn't the only one who left listeners waiting with baited breath. Singer/actress Jennifer Hudson (pictured) alerted followers about her first record since 2008, Remember Me. "My album is outttt! You can pick it up at iTunes now! - http://bit.ly/e3AOl2. Thanks for all the support! #irememberme." It seemed as though J-Hud was off to a slow start however, as she shared early Tuesday morning, "So far I know for sure I sold 4 CDs today ! #whereyouat".

On the other end of the music arena, Katherine Heigl's singer-songwriter hubby Josh Kelley released his latest effort, a country-inspired major label album called "Georgia Clay." His new sound could have a little something to do with Josh's brother Charles Kelley, who is in the Grammy-winning group Lady Antebellum. Charles took to the band's Twitter to page to write, "Just downloaded my bro Josh Kelley's new record from itunes. it's so good, so proud of him. You will love it, trust me."

Whenever we get to use the phrase "more Johnny Depp," it's never a bad thing. So it certainly made our Monday all the more fun when the new "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" trailer hit the web and it included, well, more Johnny Depp (as well as Penelope Cruz and some mermaids!). TV-radio host Ryan Seacrest posted the swashbuckling clip for followers, "Just got the new 2nd trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean 4! http://bit.ly/fJ2vGU. Nice work" while actor Matt Lanter expressed his love for the "Pirates of the Caribbean" (pictured), when he wrote, "Oh man, I am pumped for Pirates 4. Friggin love these movies!"

The new "Pirates" trailer isn't the only preview getting film buffs pumped for the spring and summer movie season, though. There's still the Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis R-rated rom-com "Friends with Benefits," whose non-kid-friendly trailer couldn't even be seen by one of its stars: Nolan Gould. The "Modern Family" child actor informed fans, "Trailer for the movie I worked on last summer http://fwb-movie.com/. For adults only. Even I don't get to see it."

It's time to say goodbye to "Hellcats." No, don't worry, it's not the end of the line for our favorite cheer squad at Lancer University, it's just a wrap on filming their first season!

There's no doubt that the kiss between Chris Colfer's Kurt and Darren Criss' Blaine during last night's episode of "Glee" will go down as one of the all-time great smooches in television history. In addition to the totally unexpected bliss of it all (seriously, who could have seen that coming?!), it was a moment that surpassed any fan's expectations for the Warblers duo. "Nikita" star Lyndsy Fonseca was just one of the many Gleeks who couldn't help but share their delight with the lip-lock, as she posted, "OMG!!!! i screamed for joy when Kurt and Blaine FINALLY kissed! #gleek." But the two "Glee" men of the moment (pictured) couldn't help but have a little fun with the big trending topic they created, as Darren joked, "@chriscolfer Looks like we finally did what everybody was waiting on for so long... A Hey Monday song! Boy, I sure hope people liked it!" and Chris playfully tweeted back, "@DarrenCriss I fo' sho' thought "RIP Pavarotti" would be trending before "They Kissed". Tisk tisk. He is rolling in his bedazzled grave."

Sadly, two of their "Glee" co-stars were doing what so many others did from their Twitter pages today; paying their respects to singer Nate Dogg, who passed away at the age of 41 on Tuesday, March 15, reportedly from complications from a stroke. Actor Kevin McHale said of the late legend, "Just talking about how i missed Nate Dogg on the radio the other day, crazy. Shall be missed tremendously! music lives on" as his co-star Dianna Agron reflected on the West Coast-based star who was behind hits like "Regulate," "RIP Nate Dogg. Know it is a very sad day for the bay area."
