It seems John Cleese and Stephen Fry are both actually and legitimately on Twitter. (This is confirmed on their official websites.) What surprises me is that other users, who seem by all appearances to be just regular ordinary people, are sometimes replying to them, and sometimes they reply back! I envy that confidence, to think that of course you're allowed to reply to a famous person just because they're on Twitter!
Of course, if I had the confidence to think I'm allowed to talk to famous people, I'd probably end up like Mel on Flight of the Conchords.

Wow. That's cool. The closest thing I've seen to that is when a famous pitcher showed up at a Red Sox fan forum. He blogs, and he's also commented on Allan's blog. Everyone was pretty awestruck. It was hard not to be.

I'm always afraid of that when I talk to famous people. I'm so busy trying not to faun that I don't know what I'm saying.

Not every day, but not infrequently.
