Get your Diversity on!

 In today's world, what does it take to be a star in Hollywood?  It's all about diversity, baby!  (And not the kind you think. :) )

HAVE MOVIE STARS BECOME AN ENDANGERED SPECIES?
The rules of the game have changed but the game is still in play. There will always be stars. It’s just human nature because people will always have their favorites. I don’t believe that will ever change. However, Peter Bart intimates in the article and I do agree with him that the up and coming actors, to sustain any kind of longevity in their careers, will be dependent on the diversity of the roles they take on. - See more at: http://www.aspectsofentertainment.com/movie-stars-become-endangered-species/#sthash.bH9Gzc9o.dpuf
