People tend to subconsciously mold the more stable and moral characters in their works after themselves, (Frankie looking a suspicious amount like Lauren Faust) but this is rarely a problem.

Ooh, hope I didn't highjack the thread.

Frankie actually doesn't look like Lauren Faust at all; when it's been said that she is based on Ms. Faust, I think that must mean personality-wise. "Explorin' Lauren", from "One False Movie", is based on her, though.
