True, but there is kind of a point to me made for that though.
For example when thinking about Hollywood royalty, do you consider Betty Grable to be part of that pantheon? Most people don't know her these days. She's not really ever talked about or referenced and yet she was one of the biggest stars of her time, being in the top ten movie moneymakers list a record
ten years in a row. She certainly is qualified to be Hollywood royalty. She has iconic moments, hit movies, etc., but the true Hollywood royalty are people like Cary Grant, Clark Gable, Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Marilyn Monroe, etc., ... people that are remembered.
