Supercouple

A supercouple or super couple (also known as a power couple) is a popular and/or wealthy pairing that intrigues and fascinates the public in an intense or obsessive fashion. The term originated in the United States, and it was coined in the early 1980s when intense public interest in fictional soap opera couple Luke Spencer and Laura Webber, from General Hospital, made the pair a popular culture phenomenon.

First applied to fiction, supercouple can be used to refer to couples from television dramas and film, such as Gone with the Wind's Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara. The term was expanded to real-life pairings; tabloids and the mainstream media have focused on wealthy or celebrity couples, such as the romances between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez (which became known by the portmanteau "Bennifer") and of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie ("Brangelina").
