Stars twinkle not because they radiate energy (planets reflect light) but the amount of space the light from them travels causes disturbances.

Not quite.

Heck, I’ve seen the full moon twinkle from Yosemite Valley.

(Full disclosure: non-trivial quantities of tequila may have been involved.)

Given sufficient alcohol, the clearly-lit faces of the people around you may twinkle.

In about five years, the answer may be KIC 9832227.
