Why do people get so upset when a celebrity who they've never even met dies?

Elizabeth Taylor has just died. Very sad, but why is it so much more sad than the death of the millions of other anonymous people who passed away this week? People who have struggled throughout or been killed for no good reason?

She had a very good life and all lives do eventually come to an end. The tributes are already starting to pour in, but how many of those tributes have come from people who have even given her a second thought in the past month? Aren't you supposed to mourn the death of people that you're close to?
