did you miss the fact- the other careers since the base game and up are also going to allow you to be famous? Famous painter, famous chef, famous author, etc

I understand that, but just adding fame to existing careers is very easy. Will each of the old careers have a different set of animations, gameplay and costume for their fame levels? No. Only the acting career will have those things. Which is why I think there's no excuse for not adding in music, singer, band, or modeling career.

We don't know that yet -- maybe famous authors will be pestered for autographs just like actors, and can get into exclusive clubs.

People forget we already have musician in the game -- if you have CL you can even sing with guitar and/or piano. Maybe down the road they'll patch in singing for base game the way they did photography, but it's such a key feature of CL that I don't see it coming any time soon. With bands they'd have to add more instruments like droms, bass guitar, etc. plus record new tracks of the bands playing together -- I'd rather see that come in a pack like University personally.

In Sims 3 existing careers were included in the fame system -- and the film career was a rabbit hole. This time we get an active acting career, while still having paths to fame for existing careers. And I don't think it's as easy as you think it is -- you have to figure out which actions will add fame, which won't -- plus an opt-out system so players who don't want their Sims to become famous can keep them off the fame ladder while still progressing in their careers, and avoiding the mistakes of Sims 3 where everyone and their uncles were celebrities of some sort.
