Good point actually. The pop industry is built around crafting cynically made up images, and the actual singer is often an incidental figurehead.

I guess this is the logical conclusion - when there is nothing real about the image at all, there isn't even a living person behind it. In which case we should ask if this is the direction in which we want to go, or it's time to look back and rethink it.
