__B__ is __A's__ sister, and is also a singer-songwriter/DJ. She is most noted to have had an extremely publicly scrutinized relationship with ___C___. __B's__ quote on that was "I'm not gay, I'm an equal-opportunity player".

__C__ is a musician and has forayed into movies. Her most well-received movie was a film remade by Disney. This was the movie's second remake in ten years, and it has made been remade thrice in total.

__D__ was __C's__ title co-star in the previous Disney movie about a cursed Chinese fortune cookie. She is best known for a seductive dance scene in another well-known movie made in 1994 - a scene that has developed a cult following ever since. The movie also has a very famous tango scene at the end. She is, incidentally, actor Jake Gyllenhaal's godmother.

__E__ was the lead actor in that movie with __D__, and is best known for his role as a cyborg assassin. He was recently divorced from his wife __F__, whom he was with for 25 years.

__F__ is is an American journalist and author of six best-selling books. She also made an appearance on the farewell show of __G__, said to be the most popular talk-show host on American television.

__G__ is described as a media mogul today, and is also amongst the most influential media personalities on the planet. She has had many famous guests on her talk-show, __H__ being one amongst the most noted ones.

__H__ is known for several blockbuster movies, but is yet to win an Oscar. He is also infamously known for his unyielding belief in __I__ , a new-age organization with its main profit-earning product being a belief system. __H__ has stated that __I__ has helped him overcome dyslexia, saved him from depression and helped him define and find "love".

__I__ has borne the brunt of attacks from Comedy Central to the Anonymous hacker group. It has become standard practice within __I__ for members to sign lengthy legal contracts and waivers before engaging in its services, a practice that contrasts greatly with almost every similar mainstream organisation.

__J__ is the main adversary in the belief system of __I__, and the narrative of __J__ is part of the discourse about extraterrestrial civilizations and alien interventions in earthly events, collectively described as space opera. __I__ has repeatedly filed injunctions on the grounds of both copyright and trade secrecy, to prevent the story of __J__ to become public knowledge.
