Peter Andre's Twitter page hacked

Aussie pop star Peter Andre is the latest celebrity to have his Twitter.com account compromised by hackers.

Phoney tweets appeared on the Mysterious Girl singer's page on Tuesday redirecting his 1.9 million followers to online advertisements for a weight loss aid.

Andre was quick to spot the bogus messages and he has apologised to his fans for the hack attack.

He writes, "Hey Dudes and dudettes. My account keeps getting hacked. Please pay no attention to this wierd (sic) weight loss thing that keeps appearing.

"I've changed my password twice. This must be a virus thing again. I knew the weather was crap; even my twitter has a cold."
