About twitter verified accounts:
Any account with a blue verified badge on their Twitter profile is a verified account.
Why does Twitter verify accounts? Twitter proactively verifies accounts on an ongoing basis to make it easier for users to find who they’re looking for. The platform concentrates on highly sought users in music, acting, fashion, government, politics, religion, journalism, media, advertising, business, and other key interest areas. Twitter verifies business partners from time to time and individuals at high risk of impersonation.
