You could basically ask the same thing about why people write fic and slash side characters with little screentime.

I mean, yeah, part of it is slashing the public personas that the celebrities put out there, especially for those who really put themselves in the spotlight, but the other part is basically...turning them into characters based on what little information you're given. Filling in the blanks, so to speak. Seeing that celebrities are just about as removed from our own reality as fictional characters are, it's easy to forget that you're technically writing/reading about real people, even if the only things that match up are the names and faces.
