Twitter has been overtaken by news of Apple's iPhone 6 release today, including some celebrities weighing in on the new smartphone - or finding an excuse to crack jokes.
Comedian Colin Quinn jokingly threw his weight around in an attempt to get a free iPhone 6, even taking a shot at Apple CEO Tim Cook. Other big names like Ellen DeGeneres, DJ Pauly D and former NFL punter Chris Kluwe chimed in as well, while recently canceled CNN host Piers Morgan fired back at someone who wondered if the new phone could fit in a certain part of the Brit's anatomy.
Hey #applelive I'd like a new iPhone 6L as soon as possible. I'm a celeb and I can promote it by people seeing me "around town" with it.

Do you know how I know the iPhone 6 is close to being released? My iPhone 5 is suddenly developing mysterious "glitches."
