I don't know. Maybe if I actually started writing it, I would actually discover that it totally wasn't a big deal, but, without doing that, I still have it in my head that it would be. And, yeah, like you say, I don't really think I would be particularly good at writing real people I know nothing about in character, because it's totally different from writing characters in a book or TV show, where there are generally boundaries to work within.

Plus, the obvious hotness of Brad and George aside, very few people pinged my completely straight radar in quite the way that George Clooney did, and I'm not particularly adversed to keeping it that way. He is kinda hot all on his own. *G*
