People do it with plants, lamps, pictures, clocks, etc. all the time. I have two 2" panels weighting 15lbs each hung from my ceiling directly into the drywall; been there for a year and a half...not a problem.

If you can get into the studs I definitely would though....that's also why I suggested the EZ wall anchors first.
