Welcome to the LGPedia, an online encyclopedia designed around the on-going lonelygirl15 series. This is a wiki, which allows anyone to edit it, including you. This means that we can provide the most complete, accurate information which will update as the series does.

Who is this lonelygirl15?

Lonelygirl15 began in May 2006 on YouTube when a young girl named Bree started posting videos about her life, her religion and her relationship with a boy named Daniel. The videos quickly grew to have a huge following, but fans began to suspect that Bree was not real. After a lot of sleuthing fans of the series discovered that Bree was in fact an actress, played by Jessica Lee Rose and that the show was a production.

Since the reveal, the show has continued with new videos released several times a week, new characters and even an Alternate Reality Game. While the videos still appear on YouTube, the show is now hosted at lonelygirl15.com. Many fans of lonelygirl15 have created their own stories, and in addition to the lonelygirl15 canon there are numerous fan fiction series.

The LGPedia attempts to document it all: the story, the characters, the fans and what's happened behind the scenes. If you are unfamliar with the lonelygirl15 story, please feel free to examine The Story So Far... to gain an insight as to what has happened so far in the series. There are well over 200 lonelygirl15 videos now.
