The music scene is constantly flooded with siblings of superstars gaining popularity as well as actors and actresses making the cross over to music. More and more there are concerts where people dance around instead of actually singing and guitar solos that are overshadowed by expensive pyromantic displays.

So what does it take to become a superstar?

1. Connections
2. Marketing
3. Physical Appearance
4. Personality
5. Talent

Thats the order of importance as far as I am concerned. How would you arrange those 5. Would you add in any other factors?

Does it bother you that this is (atleast my opinion of) the state of affairs in the music industry?
