The Popdust Files: daily tweetcap, olympics

The day in music as told by tweets. The Olympics continue to be the talk-of-the-town, with apologies to Bloody Bieber and Michael Madsen. Thanks to Twitter, we get to the response from Olympians when, say, Justin Bieber tweets his support. Turns out Canadian female athletes are fangirls just like the rest of us.

Also, Lady Gaga tweeted something unintelligible about Selena Gomez. If you explain it to us in the comment section, we’ll mail you a Popdust t-shirt. For serious.

Think you have a music-related tweet worthy of our Daily Tweetcap? Tweet it @HiMyNameSam!

High praises to my good friend Michael Phelps for becoming the greatest Olympian of all time.USA!!
