Only disney kids are guaranteed instant fame and fortune. It's brilliant really, take the Jonas brothers or Miley Cyrus for eg. They had/have shows which depicted them as celebrity, so they had an instant following. For the rest of us, you try your luck at idols/ The voice. Or you gotta have a network of bigwigs. A trustfund that can pay for studio time could definitly help, OR be ruthlous enough to claw your way to the top. Me? I'm glad I realized that celebrity would take the joy right out of my voice, I'm not ruthlous at all. But, if I could choose to sing for a living now, I'd choose a regular gig at a nice club. That would suit me just fine
