The people you know well enough to trust them are close to you but unknown to others, so other people wouldn’t really appreciate your answer if it was just some common unknown people. You mostly cannot bet on the character of celebrities, because you don’t know them personally (see Gaiman). Fictional characters are known by many people and their personalities are nicely described in the books, movies, whatever…
The fact that they had to go to fictional characters is significant.
