Lindsey McKeon has just posted her latest interview on her website. The actress then naturally tweets it out and then asks the interviewee if he can do the same. To the normal everyday person, this wouldn't be a big deal. Even to McKeon, it probably didn't run through her mind the magnitude. However the interviewee is a superhero. Okay not really, but he does play one in the movies. The interviewee in question was none other than Chris Evans. The two have been friends for years since meeting on the set of a series called Opposite Sex. After Evans tweeted out the link to his few million followers, McKeon's website lindseymckeonblog.com crashed due to the volume. Yes, "Captain America" crashed her site, a feat that only a select few in the social …show more content…
McKeon, an actress, has worked steadily in Hollywood and is best known as Tessa/The Reaper on Supernatural and Taylor James on One Tree Hill. The idea for the site came to her on a few separate occasions. "In the beginning I shrugged it off because it didn't feel organic to me." McKeon states. "I'm not a fan of forcing anything just because I'm told there may be a benefit to it." She states. However after sitting on the idea for a while, she got inspired to create.

Some of the questions include "What terrifies you?" and "What do you do or practice to continue your growth?" These are not the typical film questions, but instead delve deeper into the actor's or interviewee's mind.

McKeon wasn't that surprised by Evans' answers. "I just felt proud. Proud of who he is, proud that we have the ability to offer this information to the world. He speaks it so well, I would love to see him write a book or be a motivational speaker; maybe do a TED talk." She says with enthusiasm. After releasing the article last week, she was thrilled to see all of the responses from the fans. "It really seems to have hit home with them. To me, that's a huge gift."

Besides the Chris Evans interview, McKeon has a few others coming up as her site begins to grow. She is currently filming an interview with Sheila Kelley, actress and founder of Sfactor, a feminine fitness program that incorporates Pilates, yoga, stretching and uniquely designed pole dance routine. She is also working on an interview with Arielle Kebbel, star of The Rock's new HBO Show Ballers. So what does Lindsey McKeon hope readers (and viewers) take away from her new venture? "I hope it connects with them on some level. If I can spark a new, healthier way of being or thinking, than my blog has been a success. And hopefully it gets to be fun in the
