Celebrities have millions of followers. Push-based fanout is expensive: tweet → M writes. Solution: hybrid approach.
For celebrities (>K followers), use pull-based: don't fanout, merge their tweets at read time. For regular users, use push. Threshold is tunable based on write capacity. Trade-off: celebrity tweet reads are slower.
