Dancers will never be as famous as singers
But you can be famous nowadays for marrying a footballer. And not very famous for finding a cure for some serious illness. Fame doesn't necessarily equal achievement.
Depends why you dance really. Whether it is for love of dance itself or as a vehicle for becoming famous.
I guess for those dancers in the entertainment industry fame is relevant. So it might not be as easy to achieve, but if you do achieve it, maybe not so transient. (OhI don't know - that last statement is rubbish, on reflection. Fame doesn't seem to be a reason for becoming a professional dancer then. Quite refreshing really!)

I'm not sure there is much to discuss unless you narrow the field of singing.
Singing is far more accessible than dancing. Young children become interested in songs and singers, but an appreciation of Dance is more of an acquired taste.
Pop songs and singers exist - but pop dances and dancers?

Both have music in common.
It's the versatile human voice singing meaningful words versus vibrant, colourful body language which can be very moving as well as visually beautiful. For me teaming up singer with dancers does not always work, say when the two sides disagree on interpretation or have very different personalities.
Unlike solo song or solo dance, a ballroom and latin duet have the additional appeal of partnership, the magic of man and woman.
But song does have a trump card. Like radio and unlike TV/PC, a song needs only an ear when the eyes are busy elsewhere.
