I still have had, a great deal of success, and Thank you letters.
I dont think, I would have, got so many replys, if anyone thought I was rude.

Re: writing like this inapproraite?
I always go like..for example, Charlie Sheen;
Dear Mr. Sheen,
-letter here-
Always always. It just seems more respectful than starting a letter off with..."Dear Johnny Depp,"
I also do not use hon, honey, babe, dear, sweetheart, sugarlips (
).

Re: writing like this inapproraite?
Rather don´t use the honey etc. expressions unless you´re writing to a pornstar (but I would never use it in that case either).
Being polite isn´t uncool.
Rather treat them with respect; firstly because they deserve it, secondly, if you don´t, they may end up in "who-do-you-think-you-are-attitude" and then you´re most likely to receive nothing.
Just my opinion.

Re: writing like this inapproraite?
I don't use titles (Mr, Mrs etc), unless they've been knighted. Then it's "Sir -firstname-". I don't know why, but I've always written first names and never surnames. Dear Joe or Dear Jane. I always end with "love and best wishes" not "sincerely". I guess there's points for being respectful by using surnames and such, but in my opinion, you can be respectful without being overly formal. You're writing a letter from the heart saying how much you admire them or enjoy their work, not asking for a job interview.
However, I would never write "sweetheart" or "honey" or any other terms of endearment. You don't actually know the person, however much it may feel like you do.

Re: writing like this inapproraite?
Words like 'honey' or 'sweetheart' should not be used for celebrites in my opinion. You don't know them personally, they're not friends of yours. They're people whose work you admire. Those words are improper in my opinion.
However, as for the discussion about titles, when the person is young, usually when he/she is younger than me or at about the same age as me (I'm 18), teenagers generally, I write to them 'Dear first name'. Honestly, I'd feel stupid to say 'Ms Black' or 'Mr Green' to someone who is younger than me. And I think that teenage stars don't mind to read letters with 'Dear Jack' or 'Dear Grace' from someone at their age. If the person is older, I mean over 25 or so, I write 'Dear last name'. That's polite.
