Exactly, why do people care so much about celebrities. It's understandable to appreciate their work/talent (movies or whatever) but to go beyond that to know whatever crap they are doing in their life is cringy.
I so agree. I admit there are a few celebrities that I like so much that I'd be interested in their life story a bit, but I'm absolutely not following news about them or really even interested in their kids or who they married. Even though those things are a part of them, I would be interested in their earlier life more -- how did they become this person? Having said that, most biographies I have read have been snoozefests, sadly. Even when the person is insanely fascinating in an interview about their work, hearing about how they spent their summer in 1968 isn't usually the most riveting story...
