Quoting directly from the executive summary of Project Stardust.

'Unit-7 will perform exclusively via encrypted broadcast feeds under the protections of the Public Harmony Acts.'
'The preceding units (Echo-1 through Echo-6) suffered cognitive disintegration and have been terminated and purged from storage.'

They didn't want a pop star. They wanted an immortal corporate asset that could never sue for royalties, age, or OD in a hotel room.
