The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I had a natural occurrence when I turned on the television.

I suddenly realized the number of people that tried to become stars instantly, just competing in televised talent shows.

As these talent shows are prime time on TV, millions of people in the United States, England, and other parts of the world watch the shows.

However, success doesn't come easy. The people that really have talent know that preparation and hard work is the key, not mere talent. Talent is just the beginning.

With talent comes practice, preparation, repetition, study, commitment, discipline, and sacrifice. And not everybody likes that. Quite the opposite, they just like instant success. And seldom, that really happens.

Basically, these television shows are big businesses that are sponsored by large companies to produce millions of dollars in advertisements. This means that the purpose is only to generate "big money" and entertain people just to have a good time.
