"an actor" ROFL!
And they actually published your response!
Idiot-holes!

This is like the 3rd time I've read Time Magazine, 1st time I've laughed.

feckin priceless :D
Like many others I saw this tweet as it was published and had a chortle

What a laugh. Thanks, Peter. Theter.

Oh great - just what Sarafinowicz needs, more material.

Daniel K, American

we read the Time article in the office earlier this week - some of the sharpest journalism ever - is there any chance of you getting booked om a Fox news show - and bench 180 on air

My friend's uncle's next door neighbour was at the gym too, and he hasn't stopped talking about it since, you blew him away with your awesomeness!

To quote David Brent: "'Oh yeah, yeah, you are the best.' It's their opinion."
(Can you quote a fictional character?)

I may have to kiss you.

You think you are so great just because your workout was better than everyone else's on one particular day. At one particular gym. Pathetic.

Am I like the only one who doesn't get what's going on here? Why are you guys fawning all over this limey asshole? I did like 212 squat thrusts in 9 minutes in my gym and when I subsequently boasted about it on Facebook the Economist called me 'obnoxious'. That's right: the Economist. Get yourself lambasted by a serious publication, then ask me if I'm impressed. Douchebag.

Are those books behind you? On those shelves?

Your simply the best, better than all the rest. Peter next year I urge you to enter Britain's Got Talent and bench 180. You will win easily. The entire population of the world will all stare in amazement and shout your name in unison. Simon Cowell will bow down in front of you and cry in shame as he looks foolishly inadequate in front of you begging for your mercy. Time magazine will be renamed Timeless Magazine and your Face will be brandished on it for eternity as Timeless Man of the year and beyond.

First FOX News, George Bush, Rush Limbaugh, now Time Magazine. Just one more item to add to the list or people who make so many of us embarrassed to be Americans.

Today, you make me love life..

God your good. The Best even!

I wonder if anyone's realised that the magazine cover above isn't real. Clever stuff Mr. Serafinowicz, you've fooled everyone, but not me!

You're currently 3rd on Tweeting Too Hard.

I also go to the same gym as Peter. It is nice to see that as well as perfecting his perfect physique, he is not bound by conventional modesty. His uninhibited self-awareness should be a lesson to us all. I will be the first to applaud him next time i see him in the showers.

I think it’s great that Time are making sure important stories like this aren’t being lost in all the frothy Aung San Suu Kyi coverage.

I'm with Amy and her previous post. As an American I'm shocked that the sarcasm and wit were lost (in translation?!?!? you know, English to English). Keep setting the example and we'll continue to aspire to be as cool as Your Royal Hipness!

We really should expect more insight from the nation which gave the world George W "misunderestimated" Bush. Those guys think irony is something that has iron in it, preferably that you can shoot at people. Superb!

The irony is that this lesson in irony has completely passed this reporter by

*sigh* It's people like this that give Americans a bad name. Unfortunately, they tend to write for magazines.

We're not all idiots, I swear. Although when Obama goes and gives a bloody iPod to the your queen... it blurs the lines a bit.

I would expound further upon this topic, but I am late for an appointment to have my Jane Grey steam-cleaned.

Wow, I would have completely misread that Tweet as a gay joke. It's funny either way... I think the writing staff at Time could use some irony supplements. We're not all this dense in America, I promise!

I'm so proud that you're so proud because you really ARE the best. Rock on fella.

I, for one, think this is the best news of the season.

When I left the pub last Saturday all the lads agreed 'I' was the best.

It kind of devalues their real 'Man of the year' award when you discover they have idiots like that writing for them lol

You ARE the best. It's official.

The date on the cover is April 2006.

I'm really confused, how could this be???!!!

I'm glad that there's nothing else in the world at all to report on other than one of your random twitters

Cannot...breathe...for...laughing...aaahahahaha

I love you so much now I may have to kill myself

(RT that and see what it does to your rankings in "Tweetingtoohard")

Just because you can bench 180 doesn't mean you should be on the cover of Time magazine. There are plently of people who can bench more than 180 and will never be on the cover of Time magazine. Isn't the real truth that you got the Time cover simply because you are a famous actor and probably know the editor? Everyone knows that everyone in the media all know each other and go to the same gym. In fact, I bet one of the people in the gym that said you were the best was the editor of Time magazine. Americans are easily impressed. Also, I'm amazed that they'd use such a poor quality shot for the cover. I used to buy Time magazine every week but now I know the editor chooses his covers stars based on how much they can bench (I wonder how much Sonia Sotomayor can lift?) I'm going to switch my aligience. But what too? All the editors go to the same gym.

Genuis! I laughed at the tweet when first posted, and laughed even harder at this :o)

As one of the gym friends who participated in the original twitter (I said "you f'n rock, S" really loudly as he walked out even though we'd never met), I'm happy to see the US press pick up on it. Only shame now is all these posers who've signed up at the gym just to see PS's pecs and yell out fake encouragement.

I, too, love you.

Surprised the journalist didn't even bother to google your name or look at your twitter feed and work out it might not be entirely serious.

You forgot to mention that it is a childrens Gym and you are only the best at the froggy slide and the ball pool. You also made Lucinda cry when you stole her Kinder egg. Shame on you.

No contest.

Hilarious!

Wow! And they even put you on the cover! That's wonderful!

I'm going to tell all my friends I Follow you. They'll be so jealous.

'In fairness, some of the more outrageous messages appear to be gags (let's hope so). But others, unnervingly, are not...'

It's a shame they cannot tell the difference

I knew some of our American cousins did not get irony but now it transpires they don't get humour either. Peter I salute you! Your twitter posts make me laugh on a daily basis...

Like Peter Andre you are Priceless

Awesome. You're my favourite. Seriously, I'm thinking of naming my next child Peterserafinowicz.

You're easily the funniest person on Twitter. Keep up the good work.

You're at number 4 in tweetingtoohard.com 's top 10 most self-important tweets!

Let's see if we can get you to number one!

Dear sir,
You are a genius and I feel proud to share a first name with you.

Also, please can you follow me back on Twitter? Otherwise, how can I enter your contests etc? @frogworth

Thanks dude,

Peter
