FANSITES
Current
Nicole's Magic: Nicole Kidman
Since: March 2002
Favourite Performance: Virginia Woolf in The Hours
Where to start with Nicole? I started this site as a way of getting to know more about Nicole, as my interest in her had
picked up in 2001. It was my first proper fansite, but I already knew what I wanted in it and how I wanted to run it -
there were no fansites for her that had proper fan interaction so I basically wanted something fun and that other fans
could kind of relate to (as opposed to the other very scripted and 'cold' fansites for her). So as I've built the site
up over the years my interest in her has increased, to say the least. The best thing to say about this site is simply
that I have put my heart and soul into it, as cliched as that may sound. Now, in 2008, my interest in Nicole is not what
it was 'back in the day' due to obvious reasons (just look at her) but this site means too much to me to let it go ... not
that I want to ;)
Kate Hudson Heaven: Kate Hudson
Since: June 2003
Favourite Performance: Penny Lane in Almost Famous
Miss Hudson <3 Kate is like the exact opposite of Nicole and I've always tried to make the site a reflection of Kate's
personality - fun and laid-back. I had wanted to make a Kate site for a while before I actually did it, and the emergence
of other KH sites put me off for a while. When someone said they wanted to co-web a KH site with me, I decided to go for
it ... unfortunately that person disappeared offline soon after! But I decided to keep the site going myself, and have
actually really enjoyed it. This is probably my favourite site to work on, possibly due to the fact that Kate always looks
amazing and happy.
Blue Jewel: Naomi Watts: Naomi Watts
Since: December 2005 originally, re-opened August 2007
With: Jess
Favourite Performance: Cristina Peck in 21 Grams & Betty/Diane in Mulholland Drive
When Jess mentioned she also wanted to make a site for Naomi
I decided to
Maria-Bello.org: Maria Bello
Since: April 19th 2008
Favourite Performance: Anna Del Amico in ER
Before I started this site I wasn't particularly a 'fan' of Maria - I'd only seen one of her movies and I knew very little
about her - but I'd read a short interview with her and I immediately took to her. As a result of that, and the buzz around
her at the start of 2006, I decided to buy a domain for her, intending to build a fansite so I could learn more about her.
As I've worked on the site my interest in her has increased. I will admit that I don't love any of her movies in
the way I do ones by Nicole, for example, but I have a huge amount of respect for her talent and lack of inhibition when
it comes to taking a role. Her fearlessness, her down-to-earth-ness and the fact that she doesn't seem fazed or affected
by Hollywood makes me admire her. She also has some of the best films of her career coming up - Downloading Nancy and
Yellow Handkerchief. We can forgive her for The Mummy 3 as her reasons for taking it were good ;)
Goran Visnjic Online: Goran Visnjic
Since: July 20th 2008
Favourite Performance: Dr Luka Kovac in ER
I first saw Goran in one of my all-time favourite movies, Practical Magic, and soon after he appeared in Madonna's
The Power Of Goodbye music video. When I heard he had been cast in ER I was excited because he was getting
a great breakthrough into Hollywood/America ... and because I'd get to see him on screen every week. My fandom has remained
constant since then (9 years ago!), and after considering making a fansite for him for a while, earlier this year I decided
'why not?!'. Now he has left ER things will probably be quite quiet for him, so I don't expect the site to need a lot of
work.
I Heart Anna: Anna Friel
Since: Joined in July 2008
With: Luciana
Favourite Performance: Chuck in Pushing Daisies
I had known of Anna for years and had always thought of her as very pretty and a bit more special than most UK stars. When
Pushing Daisies took off in 2007 I briefly thought about making a site for her, but in 2008 I Heart Anna went up for
adoption at fan-sites.org and I discovered Luciana was taking it over so I volunteered to help from time to time. When she
gave me all the details for the site I kind of came on as a co-web ... and now I'm glad I did! I've found I like working on
this site because the pressure is not all on me to update the site.
Upcoming
Who: Secret
Since: 2009
Favourite Performance: that would give it away ;)
Something other than their film work makes me a fan of this person, and I have a great amount of respect for them. I'm
hoping to build this site up and open it sometime this year, maybe around the time their new movie (a big one!) is released.
Who: Isabel Lucas
Since: June 2009
Favourite Performance: Tasha in Home & Away
Who: Isla Fisher
Since: 2009
Favourite Performance: Rebecca Bloomwood in Confessions
This is a definitely, maybe project LOL, as in it will probably happen but I just don't know when yet!
Status Undecided
Sienna Miller Online: Sienna Miller
Since: August 2004 - August 2008
Favourite Performance: Katya in Interview
I joined this site in August 2004 a few weeks after Katy created the site. I had noticed Sienna because of her relationship
with Jude Law and her style - like everyone else did. I admired her confidence, carefree-ness and 'boho' style, and while
I am no fashionista, Sienna's laid-back, fresh and independent approach to style really appealed to me. Over the years
her career has really taken off and I genuinely have a huge amount of respect for her career and the film choices she has
made. While my interest in her career has gone up, my interest in her style has gone downhill. And then there is the very
unfortunate tabloid/paparazzi-friendly side to her - I hate the fact that one minute she is complaining about it in an
interview and saying how she wishes the paparazzi would leave her alone, and then the next she is stumbling out of some
celeb nightspot totally drunk. It is that reason why I decided to close the site in August 2008. While I am so excited
about her future career, I can't ignore the tabloid side anymore. At the moment I am thinking I might re-launch the site
when the tabloid stuff has calmed down.
