Why can some celebrities stay famous for a long time while some others ('some' is fine, but 'others' reads better as it avoids repetition (of 'some') cannot?

Why Some Celebrities Stay Famous?
Some celebrities are and remain famous because their talents, innate or otherwise, stay in sync with the current popular trends. In short, they produce something of interest for the public, whether it be a new book, a new song, or a new film character. When they no longer have the creativity to adapt to or keep up with changing times, they will simply lose both their audience and their relevance. In contrast, other celebrities, those without talents, not only need mass media to gain the public’s attention, but also rely on it to maintain their popularity. They do not produce anything of real value, but are merely, as the saying goes, "famous for being famous." As a result, once they lose that platform, people will quickly, if not inevitably lose interest in them.*
Hi, Ellen. Good job! Other than adding “the” before the word, "needs," I saw nothing grammatically wrong with your post, and other than a stylistic change of “the platform” to “that platform,” felt it was a succinct one. However, the changes I made in my edit were to allow your sentences to be more in agreement with your title, to sound more natural to my native ears, to expound upon, if not clarify your thoughts, and for ease of readings. Sincerest apologies if I have misinterpreted. I hope that this helps you. J.
*I, for one, am desperately longing for the day when the media will no longer see any need to tell us anything about any of the Kardashians, their husbands, or their kids… (*-^)

The talented people who work hard for many years remain popular for a long time or for life. People who get sudden or overnight fame from talent shows fulfil "Andy Warhol's" prediction and only receive15 mins of fame, or maybe 15 months. This is because the talented people who have been rejected many times gradually fine tuned their talents and learned what audiences like.
People who find fame from talent shows, can not last because they do not have the experience or knowledge to know how to adapt and to read audiences to be able to change things to suit the audience.
If you can only sing one or two songs well this will not sustain your fame. It may get you one single hit record but that is it.
