What you want is a "symbolic link", basically an entry in your home folder that points to the location under /entertainment.
Assuming you want to link the folders in your home directory to like named folders in /entertainment, and your username is bmike:
$ ln -s /entertainment/music /home/bmike/music
$ ln -s /entertainment/videos /home/bmike/videos
$ ln -s /entertainment/pictures /home/bmike/pictures
Note, you need to make sure music, videos, and pictures do *not* exist under /home/bmike/ prior to running these commands (move them aside if they already exist before running those commands).
