I don't get it... I find it hard to believe that a famous people would really personally be sitting at the computer, controlling Second Life versions of themselves. Why couldn't anybody just make an avatar and a screen name to impersonate a celebrity? I guess celebrity lawyers get paid to watch out for imposters, but it seems like it would be pretty hard to prevent.
