There are many actors nowadays. Young and old alike embraced the acting world. It is where people enjoy being a celebrity or a popular icon. However not all of this people are a star or a celebrity. Let me differentiate what it means being a film actor or a star.

An actor is just a person who acts or plays a role in an artistic production. The term is usually referred to someone working in movies, television, live theatre or radio and can sporadically represents a street entertainer. Besides playing dramatic roles, actors can also sing or dance or work in radio as a voice artist. A female actor is an actress, although an increasingly large group feels that the term "actor" should be redefined as being gender neutral and used for both men and women.
