No backing. No agenda. No chance in hell.

Here's the idea; I'm going to track down and contact some of the biggest stars in the world for the purpose of an interview. I have no journalistic background, no formal training, no financial backing, and I also have a full time job that will absorb my time and slow the process. What's the point? To prove that I can accomplish it. I may not receive a response from all, or for that matter any of them, but I think that with enough dogged determination, sincere intention, and a huge heap of luck I can get them all.
