The search tab in header(navigation) is to allow the user to search movies/shows/celebs based on whatever he chooses to search for.
There is a bug in search feature. Currently all searches are multi search i.e. even if user selects celebs from search tab and types something in search bar, he will get results for movies and tv shows along with the celebrities. We don't want this as the user should only get results for what he searched for (only celebrity results should be returned in this case).
If you go through the TMDB API, you will find that API endpoints are defined specifically searching movies, TV shows, celebrities and multi search.
