Entertainment

The Entertainment career track is one of the ten basic career tracks in The Sims, The Sims 2: FreeTime and The Sims 4. In The Sims 2: FreeTime, the career reward is a "Starstruck" Personal Fame Star. The Entertainment track also appears in The Sims Life Stories, where it is the career pursued by Riley Harlow, one of the player characters in Story Mode.
The Entertainment career track varies greatly between the three games in which it appears. In The Sims, its promotion levels and job descriptions are similar to those of the show business career track from The Sims 2: University and the film career track from The Sims 3: Late Night; while in The Sims 2: FreeTime it appears to exclude the film/TV theme from the original career track in The Sims, incorporating instead elements from the musician, animal care, circus and fame careers from the original game's expansions, as well as some NPC careers such as the mime. In The Sims Life Stories it seems to be more heavily production-based, as most promotion levels involve writing, directing or producing, while only one level involves acting.
There is no Entertainment career track in The Sims 3, though the acting and directing branches of the Film career (introduced in Late Night) are similar to the Entertainment career as it appears in The Sims and The Sims Life Stories, respectively. The three performance-based professions (singer, acrobat, and magician) introduced in Showtime are similar to the Entertainment career as it appears in FreeTime.
==The Sims==
Of the ten career tracks in the base game, entertainment has the lowest pay at rank 1 but the highest pay at rank 10, making it the exact opposite of the military career track. It was also in a three-way tie with pro athlete and science for having the best ratio of pay to friends required to reach max rank (100). In both of these ways, it served as a precursor of sorts to the hacker track from Livin' Large, which has the absolute highest pay at rank 10 and best pay-to-friends ratio of the game and any of its expansions.
At rank 10, because the hours are so short, entertainment pays more money per hour (§1400/5 hours = §280/hr) than any other career track.

==The Sims 2: FreeTime==
Entertainment is a career track from The Sims 2: FreeTime. The Career Reward is a "Starstruck" Personal Fame Star. Befriending the film and literature hobby instructor will reduce the friend requirement by one. If Apartment Life is installed, Bohemians are likely to work in this career. The college majors associated with this career are Drama and Literature.
An interesting feature about this career is that Sims will have a junky car collect them as their carpool for levels 1-7, whereas the carpool vehicle usually replaced by a better quality car at middle to high levels for most other careers.

==The Sims Life Stories==
In addition to the FreeTime entertainment career, The Sims Life Stories also features an entertainment career track. The career is somewhat different from the FreeTime version, in that it contains more elements of a movie career. This makes it more similar to the show business career track from University than the FreeTime career track it shares a name with.
==The Sims 4==
The Entertainer career is one of the career tracks from The Sims 4 base game. After being promoted from level four, Sims will be able to choose one of the two career paths: Musician or Comedian.
