I spent my time waiting in the airport trying to finish this off, but can't come up with the last few (I couldn't make Captain Jack Sparrow work). I assume you will all finish this off by the time I can turn my phone on again, so I will guess, of course, Taylor Swift.

Jack Sparrow was going to be my guess for G as well but I am not familiar enough with the movies to know why he wouldn't be considered human
