Yes, Mandy Moore. Ew to the other suggestion. And while she's appeared in what by most accounts is a crappy movie, she's a decent singer and really intelligent in her interviews. Also very, very pretty.
As to whom one can ethically slash: a lot of people, myself included, won't slash personal acquaintances, regardless of whether or not they would ever see the slash. Conversely, I don't worry about the possibility that the celebrities I slash might run across my posted stories--it's all about the plausible deniability, and while celebrities can easily disclaim any similarity with the characterizations of their personae in slash, one's friends can't really say that the person slashing them doesn't have any idea of who they truly are. Plus, it's just icky.
