Verification of accounts is something which twitter has been doing since the start and is one of the reasons for higher twitter use among celebrities when they want to connect with their fans and followers. Allowing this feature is a move to bring in the celebrities and other high profile people to Facebook and hence allowing the fans to follow them here.
Twitter has traditionally been a platform of choice for people who have loads of followers interested in what they are saying. This feature has been rolled out globally and celebs everywhere have started getting their pages a verified status. From Mark Zuckerberg to our very own Amitabh Bachchan have their pages verified. The blue tick mark is also visible when these people are searched through the search box on Facebook.
Facebook has not reveled their methodology on how the verification process is being conducted. Twitter also has never revealed its verification methodology ever. If you have a large number of followers, you also can get your account a verified status.
