This is the rub here on this forum and a point the article misses:
You guys are forgetting that networks like Nickelodeon, Hub, and Disney have huge entertainment budgets for teenagers and these are no longer limited to just TV or Music: When Disney or Nick creates a star these days, its because the kid has a balance of (marginal and above) talents that include acting, dancing, martial arts, as wll as vocal/music ability.
For the young generation and their associated artists, music is only a subset.....Pop Tarts did not enter the music industry on their musical ability alone
