It isn't natural, and it doesn't seem to make much sense. "At all cost" has nothing to do with what type of artist he wants to become.

What I'm trying to say is that
He wants to become famous at all costs. He doesn't care how or what for. He just wants to become famous. He doesn't care if he becomes a singer, dancer or actor as long as it is one of the 3.
He's been taking singing, dancing and acting classes since he was little.
In the above
Are the following correct?

"At all costs" doesn't really fit this situation.
No matter what else, he wants to become famous.
It doesn't matter how, he wants to become famous.
He wants to become famous, no matter how.
"He doesn't care if....." is good.
