<blockquote>Sims can attempt to achieve celebrity status by doing things such as bragging about their mixology (bartending) skills, or through playing gigs with a band. It also involves having good relationships with already existing celebrities. Celebrity NPC's are distinguished by having a gold star over their heads.
