Not really. During Michelangelo's time most paintings/sculpture was either religious or private commissions that would never be seen by the public. People entertained themselves with plays, drinking, music and other things people still do today, "art" was something most people didn't care about. Average people would only see art in a religious context, in which case it was meant to inspire and direct people in their everyday life - not entertainment. Those who did commission art, like the Medici family, did so for private churches, status symbols and occasionally entertainment(but there was allot more to it than that)
Ferrel or Cruise are not artist but entertainers, just like playwrights of the past or pulp writers of the 50's. There is allot more, and I mean allot, that goes into creating art than just some piece of entertainment and you fail to recognize the difference.
