Not to be mean, but you don't know much about these entertainers in the first place. You only know what they are presenting to you on video, which is not real.
It's not necessarily because they are putting up a fake persona (although a whole lot do), it's something that just happens when you talk to a public. Try making your own private vlogs and then try making one with the idea of putting it online, or streaming: it's insane how different you sound the moment you hit that live button and how much of yourself you run through a filter even while trying to act natural. Much like social media, the you that you present to others is not really you. When the internet was young you didn't have that feeling of "showing yourself to the world", sites were like small houses, so you had a more genuine connection with the people there. But now I wouldn't say it's possible except with anonymity. The uncanny valley is everywhere now.
