There are wide ranges of ways people can become celebrity actors, from their profession, appearances in the mass media, beauty or even by complete accident or infamy. Instant celebrity is the term that is used when someone becomes celebrity actors in very short period of time. In some places, someone that somehow achieves a small amount of transient fame through hype or mass media, is stereotyped as a B grade celebrity actors. Often the stereotype extends to someone that falls short of mainstream or persistent fame but seeks to extend or exploit it. In the 21st Century, the insatiable public fascination for celebrities and appetite for celebrity gossip has seen the rise of the gossip columnist, tabloid, paparazzi and celebrity blogging.
Local celebrity actors can be more of a household name than a national celebrity and may often experience the same type of attention from the public as national celebrity actors albeit in the confines of their particular region. For example, while journalist Lin Sue Cooney is a well known television reporter in Arizona, she is little known outside the Southwestern US.
In a smaller country, linguistic or cultural community, a figure will be less likely to gain a broader celebrity, as reflected in such mocking terms as world famous in New Zealand. Shakira was known largely in the Spanish speaking world before becoming popular around the world by performing English language songs. Similarly, Spanish actors Penlope Cruz, Antonio Banderas, Javier Bardem, Paz Vega and Xoel Pamos who were country level celebrities in their native Spain, were able to become global celebrities only after they became Hollywood celebrity actors in English speaking films.
