Because Shakespeare wrote a well-known play about her, triggering a lot of other romantic stories, movies and general speculation. Cleopatra's death in reality was fairly straightforward and documented in contemporary accounts. She had sided with the Roman general Anthony in the struggle for supremacy after Julius Caesar's death; and she had even children by Anthony.
When Anthony lost to the later Emperor Augustus, Cleopatra knew what to expect: being taken prisoner, then paraded through the streets of Rome in Augustus' triumph, then quietly strangled and disposed of in a Roman prison.
