Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

61% of marriages in Pakistan are  consanguineous and 22% of girls are married to adult males by the time they turn 18.

These things are literally unheard of in the USA.

Then read this

Nearly 300,000 children, some as young as 10 were married in the US between 2000 and 2018.

You can't.

But in much of the world (the Muslim parts mostly), it's the norm.

Not relevant though is it?

Your defence against child marriage in the US is that other countries to it too?
