I think this is a tricky subject (going back to the OP) because being an entertainer can easily be seen as a service-to-others. There's a lot of suffering in the world, and people like movie stars, comedians, and musicians help alleviate the burden of those sufferings. Likewise, a lot of live performers - especially musicians - tend to thrive on the energetic interactions between themselves and their audience. They pump up the crowd, the crowd pumps them up, and it becomes a nice example of the reciprocity of positive energies.
I think, perhaps, one of the most telling things is how well they treat their audience. An entertainer on a generally STO path is going to hold their audience in respect, and honestly seek to put on good shows. The selfish ones will rant about how they "deserve" fame or, say, show up drunk for shows and then yell at the audience.
