Why do we become obsessed with movie stars? Experts say it goes beyond their looks and all the glitz and glamour.
We all love stories. A good story captures people's hearts and engages their emotions.
A story is especially powerful when we, the viewers, can relate to the characters. Through their portrayal, it feels as if we experience their emotions and what they are going through.
The actors are elevated to pedestals because of their characters' emotional connection with us. Some actors have a greater impact on audiences, and that's what makes people obsess over Hollywood stars.
