When you run a fansite a few of the things that you constantly wonder about are 1) Does the celebrity know that we exist? and 2) If they know we exist, do they like us and what we’re doing? Chris and I were both ENORMOUSLY flattered and more then a bit awe struck this evening when Bridget tweeted about our site.
Bridget, thank you! We may have come to know of you through Legend of the Seeker, but through your interviews, appearances, tweets, and other work we’ve come to appreciate you both as an actress and a person. I don’t know of many actors who would take time out of their day to acknowledge a fan effort so publicly. Which just makes you all the more nifty as far as we’re concerned.
To everyone who has left a comment here, wandered by the site, linked to us from your site, mentioned us on forums, entered our contests, and in any other way enjoyed the site, you guys are so awesome. It’s good to know that such a high class actress attracts such high class fans.
For those of you who have come to our site because of Bridget’s tweet, welcome! Look around and feel free to leave a comment or two. We hope that you like the site to enough to come back and visit us again.
Lindsey
This was definitely a momentous occasion for Lindsey and me. We started this fansite with pretty humble intentions: just to give whatever fans stumbled upon us a place to learn about Bridget and discuss her among like-minded people. I don’t think words can express our happiness when we found out that not only were the fans responding well to the site but that Bridget was aware of us and appreciated our efforts.
This has always been a labor of love. We’d be doing this even if Bridget had no clue. But it is very rewarding to know she approves of our fan community. We couldn’t do it without all of you visiting us and commenting and spreading the word.
Thank you, Bridget, for sharing your gifts and your kind, intelligent, caring and funny personality with us, your many fans. As Lindsey said, through your interviews and your Tweets and live appearances, we’ve gotten to see a glimpse of a great person. We are really honored that you took the time to mention our work. If you ever want to feel really appreciated, stop on by!
And, as Bridget has a number of followers on her Twitter, I echo Lindsey’s welcome to our site for those who care to join us. We are happy to have you here and we hope you find it an inviting place to share your love for Bridget. Thank you again, Bridget!

first of all, i want to thank you for starting this side. it a bridge for us to express ourselfs to Ms. Bridget Regan. The Legent of the Seeker has just began as as a show . its only the 4. epsodie of the first season. i immediately felt her warm, peaceful soul even when she acts as Kahlan. i think thats why she rocks.
i will send you an email my opinions and observations.
thank you, best regards

@WolfsBain I was never what you would call a fan fanatic but with the advent of services like twitter and sites like this people like me who previously would have had no way to contact and talk to thoughts stars we admire and respect for there talent and skill can do so now freely way to go
its just a shame Bridget doesn’t have the time to respond to every one because she seems like a genuinely warm and caring person and she is someone I would like to get to know because its not often that I meet people with such a gentle spirit who wouldn’t be draw to that its good to know she approves of all ya efforts keep up the good work guys you to Bridget
By Patricia, October 9, 2009 @ 7:20 am
Congratulations, Lindsey and Chris! What a gracious thing for Bridget to have done. It reaffirms what a genuine person she is.
By Chris, October 9, 2009 @ 4:56 pm
Thanks, everyone, for all your kind words of support, both for the site and for Bridget. We genuinely love what we do. And we couldn’t do it without all of you.

Congrats guys, truly deserved. a great tribute site for an amazing actress
By Noelle, October 9, 2009 @ 9:13 pm
Congrats you guys!! This is so epic
By Captain, October 9, 2009 @ 9:17 pm
Great site Chris and Lindsey. Bridget is beautiful both inside and out, she truly cares about her fans. No wonder we all love her so much.
P.S. Thanks for her fan mail address!
By Bill, October 9, 2009 @ 9:33 pm
Score.
There’s not many things greater than knowing your hard work paid off. You guys should be proud. And for the record, you rocked just as hard before that historical tweet.
There are few places on Earth where you can interact and be friendly with people regardless of political, religious, or other petty differences, simply because everyone WANTS to get along and accept other people. You guys have created such a place. Sounds cheesy, but it’s true, and the fact that it all revolves around a classy, talented person, well…
…Let’s just say “Job well done”.
-Bill

Awesome job everyone!
By Big B, October 10, 2009 @ 6:29 am
Bridget going out of her way to acknowledge this site and us “little” people is just further proof that she is a cut above so many of her acting peers.
By Sasha Archer, October 10, 2009 @ 7:40 am
Awesome job guys! I really enjoyed this site from the first time I came across it. It’s great to see that the object of all our attention appreciates the work that you guys do…
By Sarah, October 10, 2009 @ 8:03 am
Wow, just echoing what everyone else has said: I’m so glad Bridget knows that the care and effort she puts into Kahlan is appreciated, and the same is true for the way in which you guys run this site.
Thanks again!
By Beth, October 10, 2009 @ 8:01 pm
Nicely done guys! I must say, out of all the Bridget fan sites I’ve seen, yours is the most personable and enviting – right down to the web address name. She obviously appreciates it as well. Congrats and thanks for making us ALL feel welcome.
By Jillian, October 10, 2009 @ 8:25 pm
Congratulations guys!!! I literally screamed and clapped like a total goof when I read her tweet. You really deserve it though, your site is so great! I know only more good things will come in the future! And Bridget, you’re amazingly great for mentioning this site!
By Gina, October 11, 2009 @ 5:02 pm

By Richard, October 14, 2009 @ 1:46 pm
Damn Bridget is so friiggin hot.
By Flip, October 14, 2009 @ 9:37 pm
Bridget certainly has the beauty to make her ego as big as the sun if she wished, but what REALLY makes her so attractive is her simple charm and refreshing friendly nature. There are many pretty faces. BUt you have to have the charm to make you really beautiful.
It must be difficult for anyone to start having masses follow everything you do. I hope Bridget grows into it with grace. I am not sure I could do it.
Congrats on making a quality site…otherwise Bridget would Chuck Norris take you guys out
)))

I have a close relative graduating from UNC this year…she is really smart and pretty too. Dang…should have gone THERE!!
By Richard, October 15, 2009 @ 7:34 am
@Flip:
Tru, that BR [appears to] not being a self righteous, narcissistic, egotistical, air headed, Hollwood freak with looks that were manufactured under a surgeon’s knife. I pray she stays that way. (Power corrupts however; endless adulation from fans, paparazzi, press, seems to turn even the purest soul to the “dark side”.) So few stars seem to stay grounded. If I’m any judge of character, BR will stay as cool as she seems now. Her charm IS the most beautiful thing about her. Stay real Bridget.
By Dave, October 15, 2009 @ 6:46 pm
Thanks for the site, great job! Bridget makes LOTS! Without her I would not watch.
