Bahareh Rahnama is an Iranian actress and author. She won a Hafez Award for her acting in Tambourine.The first is that high-profile individuals have unusual wealth and influence. Marrying a famous person is a quick path to money and the high life, so many of the famous peoples' spouses don't really match up with them, resulting in incompatible marriages.The second reason is that due to the tabloid-style media that exists today, celebrities live highly documented lives.
