A Fresh, Positive Image Inspires a Diverse Support Group for Actor/Singer Corbin Bleu

Atlanta, GA, April 28, 2008 --(PR.com)-- A two hour drive from Crawfordsville, Indiana across the Illinois state line ended with Amy Hutchison and her daughter, Ashley waiting in a line with over two hundred screaming girls. There was a hockey game to be played that evening, or it could have baseball, Amy had no idea which sport venue. It wasn’t the game that enticed her and several colleagues to make the trip.

“We drove here to see Corbin Bleu and that’s it.” Amy said, clutching a black and gold gift bag filled with candy bars, teddy bears, gum and cheesy chips. “They’re all Corbin Bleu’s favorites.”

The mother-daughter team is a part of several members of Almost Bullet.com, a new fan support alliance for the well known Disney actor, singer and dancer Corbin Bleu. The group started on Bleu’s nineteenth birthday this past February.

Almost Bullet founder Lisa Johnverrell said Corbin’s personality is what inspired her to develop the alliance. “We wanted to do something different in Corbin’s honor. He deserves it. He is so special, and a very caring and giving young man.”

Johnverrell first saw Bleu in the High School Musical movies and was a “regular” fan, but it wasn’t until she saw a behind the scenes interview that she totally became intrigued with the young actor. Bleu’s charitable contributions, humble approach to stardom and charm instantly captivated Johnverrell, who uses her own hosting company to run the website, which has a special section devoted to Bleu’s contributions.

“It is so rare to see a young celebrity that genuinely cares for the arts, the environment and the well being of others. Corbin has mothers, daughters and even grandmothers on the website that are totally impressed with him. We hope more young people will follow in Corbin’s footsteps and make a difference.”

If a diverse group of fans is what a celebrity needs to stay on top, then Bleu has that with Almost Bullet. Johnverrell says that the site has members of all ages, races and origins that are following the young Bleu’s rise to success. The group is organizing several activities, including a fundraising effort for the Starlight Starbright foundation, in which Bleu is youth Ambassador.
