Music Stars We'd Like to See Join Twitter

These icons would be the highlight of your timeline.

More Music Stars We'd Like to See Join Twitter - The Queen of Soul is extending her online kingdown. Aretha Franklin joined Twitter earlier this month, though she's only tweeted seven times since. Still, we're curious to see what the elusive legend has to say for herself. And maybe Aretha can convince these other music stars to join the Twitterverse as well. Some are reclusive and mysterious, others are entertainingly off-the-wall; either way, we're sure these icons would be the highlight of your Twitter timeline.(Photo: Brad Barket/PictureGroup)

Beyoncé - Bey may be one of the biggest stars in the world, but she's also one of the most private. Though she has a verifiedTwitter page with over 2 million followers, B has a team of ghost tweeters on her team. If she actually decided to tweet, Twitter would be the perfect place for her to open up about her life, Jay, and little Blue Ivy.  (Photo: Fernando Leon/PictureGroup)

Bobby Brown - Our life has been distressingly Bobby-less since Being Bobby Brown went off the hair. He wasn't ashamed to talk about his hands-on experiences with his wife's "doodie bubble" on national television; we can only imagine what he'd say on Twitter.(Photo: Tiffany Rose / Getty Images)

Prince - What does the Purple One do when he's not making amazing music? No one knows. He's another star with a Twitter page, but he certainly doesn't do his own tweeting. If he did, there is so much we could learn. Does he make pancakes and play ball like Charlie Murphy said?  Twitter would help us find out. (Photo: Neil Lupin/Redferns)
