Here's why it's a good fit:
* They're good at pretending: An actor's skillset is built on convincing people they are someone else. This could make them convincing liars.
* They're good at hiding emotions: Actors are trained to control their facial expressions and body language. This could help them appear calm and confident while lying, making it harder for the jury to detect deception.
* It's a believable scenario: It's not unheard of for celebrities to be involved in legal disputes. A good actor could get entangled in a situation where they felt compelled to lie to protect themselves or someone else.
