Black And White Celebrity Portrait

While it’s true that the top actors often become celebrities, the other professionals that play a more peripheral role in the film world, such as screenwriters, animators, and film directors are less likely to attain celebrity status (albeit there are some exceptions, such as director Quentin Tarantino and animator Seth MacFarlane). In other fields within the entertainment sphere, there is a similar situation. For instance, in the world of pop music, the top-selling pop singers are likely to become celebrities, but the behind-the-scenes professionals tend to remain little known to the general public (e.g., record producers, and composers). Outside of the arts and entertainment sphere, the top inventors and scientists are similarly unlikely to become celebrities even if they are enormously successful in their field.
Families
Another example of celebrity is a family that has notable ancestors or is known for its wealth. In some cases, a well-known family is associated with a particular field. For example, the Kennedy family is associated with US politics; The House of Windsor with royalty; The Osbournes, Chaplin, and Barrymore families with entertainment. Other well-known families include the Hilton family, the Bush family, and the Jackson family.
