Can anyone confirm or deny that Amanda Palmer or Neil Gaiman are principal investors in Kickstarter?

“Kickstarter reportedly raised $10 million funding from backers including NYC-based venture firm Union Square Ventures and angel investors such as Jack Dorsey, Zach Klein and Caterina Fake.” Source: http://allthingsd.com/20110317/kickstarter-fesses-up-the-crowd-sourced-funding-startup-has-funding-too/

They have been very secretive about their investors and any priority given to her kickstarter campaign would reek of the same attention whoring and comeplete lack of ethics.
