Kate Upton, Neil Patrick Harris and Ashton Kutcher are tweeting support for Uber

Now they’re getting a little help from their friends — including Ashton Kutcher, Neil Patrick Harris and, weirdly, model (and noted video game player) Kate Upton — all of whom tweeted about the fracas today.

Three’s a trend, right?

.@BilldeBlasio Why do you want to return to days when only those in Midtown & Lower Manhattan could get a ride? #UberMovesNYC

Harris also directly addressed Hizzoner:

.@BilldeBlasio: 25K new residents use @Uber_NYC each week. How is a fixed # of cars supposed to serve this demand for rides? #UberMovesNYC

Kutcher joined in, too, more vocally than the others. His VC firm A-Grade Investments is an investor in Uber, so he’s probably really interested to see how this plays out:

NYC council member explain to teachers who drive #uber to subsidize their income that they won’t have a job cause U took 25k from a taxi co

10,000 jobs is nothing to scoff at, @BilldeBlasio #uberNYC

These perfectly crafted tweets nailing home Uber’s talking points seem to look #sponsored, as many on Twitter thought. Craig Ewer, the digital communications director at Uber, said on Twitter that Upton or others are not getting any money or even free rides to tweet about them.

Uber sent out an email this morning encouraging its riders to ratchet up the heat against the mayor’s office by telling them to tweet their support. A source confirmed to Digiday that there wasn’t any special outreach and they must have seen the email.

Earlier today, Uber bought ad space on The New York Times‘ website using a quote from the newspaper’s editorial board saying de Blasio’s cap was a “bad idea.” That’s in addition to commercials airing on local television and a fake option on its app that mocks de Blasio.

Stars are indeed just like you and me: spending endless amount of time on Twitter talking about Uber!
