It must be weird for Renee

Or Lucy for that matter. Here's what I'm talking about:

Say you're a big famous actor/actress like Arnold Schwaerfhn943her (can't spell it so what the heck) or Sly Stallone or Sandra Bullock. OK, you've got millions of fans -- people who say, "Oh, I can't wait to see the latest movie with so and so, I just love watching them."

But for someone in Renee's position, here's the difference. (I'm going from my perspective, here. I'm sure a lot of people feel this way about Lucy.) She's in this weekly TV show and she plays this character that, for many people, is not simply fun to watch. Gabrielle touches people's hearts. And Renee plays her with such ease (seemingly) that it FEELS like you're just watching Renee be herself.

So what I'm getting at is, what's it like to have thousands and thousands of not just fans, but many of whom actually feel as though they're IN LOVE with you? I mean, that's how I feel. I know it's not "real". I've never met Renee, never even seen her in person, never even chatted with her online. And yet, I watch her every week and it feels like I know her. And every week, she grabs me from the inside, touches my heart. I feel like the characters on Comedy of Eros -- like Xena said to Draco, "I know it feels real, but it isn't." And I know I'm not the only one who feels that way.

So how weird is that? To have thousands of men and women all over the world who feel genuinely in love with you. Most of us have a hard time finding just one.
