Idols differ from typical musical artists because the main appeal of an "idol" is that he or she is a versatile entertainer, meaning they sing and dance, but can also be expected to be an MC, a rapper, a comedian, an actor, etc. They also tend to have a central "image" that they have to maintain and upkeep since it is a part of their selling factor.
