Rumor has it that Laurel is the one killed off in Arrow in this week's episode. She's the one that's in the grave that they show Oliver visiting. I saw a picture of her filming The Flash episode and the text said "former Arrow actress Katie Cassidy" or something like that.
 
Okay, so how come Earth-2 has doppelgangers of so many people from Earth-1 while Supergirl's Earth doesn't (except for Mariah Carey, Alexandre Dumas, and the like)?

Well, Earth-SG does have a Central City. Maybe their are doppelgangers of Barry, Ollie & co., but they're simply nothing special on this earth.

Or they don't live in Star and Central Cities. Maybe Oilie-SG is in Seattle and Barry-SG is in Keystone.

In DC Comics, when they've had a multiverse there are Earth's with no Batman, Superman, etc. Not every different dimension is going to have alternate versions of every person from every other Earth. I assume its the same with Flash's multiverse.

Yep,only Earths One and Two had a Batman and Superman in the pre-Crisis continuity. And the GLs, Hawks and Flashes were very different.
 
Why would there have to be a STAR Labs? Maybe a Harrison Wells was never born on Supergirl's Earth, so no STAR Labs. If people aren't always copied on different Earth's, companies/organizations certainly don't have to be.

Did they confirm whether it works the other way around? Does Earth-1 have doppelgangers of Alex, Lucy, James, etc (obviously no Kara or Clark, unless they simply never revealed their powers or are operating in secret)?

Comics-wise, STAR is more involved with Superman than it is with the Flash, which is probably where this is coming from - but it seems Supergirl is going with Cadmus (which could be on her side or not, since it took both angles in the comics, starting out "good" and later being revealed to have backers with ulterior motives).

They did not address that in the crossover. Barry would've had no way of finding that out while he was on Earth-SG.

In "Manhunter," James told Kara that Cadmus is a black-ops alien dissection/experimentation facility, which is the reason Superman refuses to work with the government. Presumably the only reason he hasn't shut it down is because he doesn't know where it is. So I doubt very much they're being set up as friendlies.
