With a city population of over 1.5 million people, the Philadelphia Eagles have the 6th-largest home market in all of football. Obviously with that kind of population, as well as having a high population in the tri-state area, there are bound to be some people from the region who have become celebrities that still root for the Birds on Sundays.
The following list contains all the known celebrities who like to wear midnight/kelly green and can also sing the Eagles Fight Song:
Biz Markie
The "Just a Friend" artist was born in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey. He was seen at Lincoln Financial Field cheering on the Eagles regularly until he passed away in July of 2021.
Bradley Cooper
The Jenkintown native made his fandom known when he starred in "Silver Linings Playbook". He can constantly be spotted in Jeffery Lurie's owner's box with his family
Carli Lloyd
The USWNT legend was a part of the team's 2019 season hype video. Born and raised in Delran, New Jersey, she constantly praises her Eagles on Twitter.
Dan Campbell
Most people probably have no idea who Campbell is, but if you listen to alternative rock music then he might be an A-list celebrity in your eyes. The lead singer of "The Wonder Years" started his band in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, and also mentioned former defensive tackle Jerome Brown in their song "We Could Die Like This":
"The city just felt worn out, no strength to pick our hearts off the ground.
We watched the '92 Birds take the field without Jerome Brown."
Dion Waiters
The 4th overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft has carved out a productive basketball career. When Waiters is back in his hometown he converts from a professional athlete to just another Eagles fan in the Linc.
Diplo
Though not a Philadelphia native, the superstar DJ most likely became an Eagles fan while attending Temple University. He was also the head DJ for the team's Super Bowl LII victory party and even got to hold the Lombardi Trophy that night.
Eddie Alvarez
The MMA star was born and raised in the city's Kensington neighborhood. He can sometimes be seen tailgating games at Lincoln Financial Field, although it is highly recommended not to start any fights with him...
Jim Cramer
The Montgomery County native is best known for hosting Mad Money on CNBC. Cramer has been a season ticket holder for over 20 years, and was also in the stands crying his eyes out in Minnesota when he saw the Eagles win their first-ever Super Bowl.
Johnny Gaudreau
Also known as "Johnny Hockey", this NHL star is constantly wearing Eagles gear around the hockey rink. Obviously, geography played a part in his decision to be an Eagles fan, as he was raised in Oldmans Township, New Jersey, and attended Gloucester Catholic High School in Gloucester City, New Jersey.
Karl Anthony-Towns
The NBA star was born in Edison, New Jersey up near New York, but being raised in Giants/Jets territory didn't defer him from choosing the Birds as his team. The 2015 1st overall pick was also in attendance for Super Bowl LII (which was made easy for him as he plays for the Minnesota Timberwolves) and was a guest-photographer for the game. He also had some custom sneakers made to celebrate the Eagles Super Bowl victory just a couple of days after the win.
Kevin Hart
Although Bradley Cooper is probably the current face of famous Eagles fans, that title should probably go to Hart. The comedy legend was born and raised inside the city and is the embodiment of what an Eagles fan looks like and talks like. He is constantly on Twitter talking about his Eagles while simultaneously trashing the Dallas Cowboys. What other Eagles fan do you know would be so plastered drunk that they would try going up on stage to hold the Lombardi Trophy while also cursing on live TV celebrating a Super Bowl win?
Kobe Bryant
The Black Mamba was always vocal about his passion for the Philadelphia Eagles. He loved the team so much, that when the team was out in California for a road trip Bryant decided to give the team a pep talk. A few months later, his favorite team won its first-ever Super Bowl, and he celebrated like all Philadelphians did that night. R.I.P.
Lil Dicky
The Cheltenham Township-born rapper is a huge sports fans, so of course he grew up loving all of Philadelphia's sports teams. He made a few Philly sports references in one of his early songs "Sports", and recently did an extended interview to talk about his obsession with Philadelphia sports.
M. Night Shyamalan
The famous twist-ending director emigrated to the Philadelphia area from India when he was an infant. Shyamalan is known for filming and setting the plots of his movies in the city of brotherly love. His love of Philadelphia also extends to its sports teams, as Shyamalan was in attendance for Super Bowl LII.
Mark Hoppus
The rockstar, known for creating Blink-182, has no ties to the Philadelphia area, but that hasn't stopped him from cheering on the Birds. So how did he become an Eagles fan? According to NJ.com, Hoppus started rooting for the Eagles to bother his friend, a Cowboys fan, and he has stuck with them ever since.
Martin Truex Jr.
Growing up near the Jersey Shore, the NASCAR big shot had access to watch Eagles games. He was in Minnesota to watch his favorite football team win their first Super Bowl title.
Meek Mill
Of course the North Philly rapper loves him some Eagles. His song "Dreams and Nightmares" became the team's rally song in 2017 during their playoff run, using it as their entrance song for Super Bowl LII.
Michael Blackson
Blackson is probably most known for his hilarious scene in the film Next Friday. It's unclear how the Ghana comedian become an Eagles fan, but he was at Super Bowl LII.
Mike Trout
Arguably the best player in baseball, Trout has always been a huge fan of Philly Sports. The Millville, New Jersey native has had season tickets for quite a while, and when seats were made available on the field on the Linc, he grabbed those immediately and has had plenty of interactions with Eagles players. Trout also has a gameday tradition of tweeting #FlyEaglesFly before every single game.
Miles Teller
Teller has plenty of experience in Hollywood over the past few years, including playing Mr. Fantastic in Fantastic Four. The Downington native is a big Birds fan, and since he has some extra spending money now he's not shy about flying all over the country to watch his football team.
Morris Chestnut
In an article published on the Eagles team website, Chestnut said that his Philadelphia sports fandom began when he watched the 76ers and Lakers in the NBA Finals.
"In the 1982-83 season, the year that the Philadelphia 76ers played the Lakers in the NBA Finals, I said to my father, "Listen, Dad, if the 76ers win, I'm not taking out the trash for a week," and he was like, "Ok, son, whatever."
And the 76ers won, so then I kind of started watching – at that time I also played Little League baseball and my team just happened to be the Phillies – so I started watching the Phillies for a bit. But my main sport has always been football, so when it came to football season I started rooting for the Eagles and I just never stopped. That was back in the early 80s."
He also attended Super Bowl LII.
Nikki & Brie Bella
The wrestling superstars got their love of the Eagles handed down to them, as their grandfather was a full-blooded Italian who grew up on South Street. During football season they are always seen sporting their custom Eagles jerseys rooting for the Birds.
Pink
The Doylestown native couldn't contain her excitement when she found out she would be singing the National Anthem at Super Bowl LII, especially once she found out her hometown team was playing in the game.
Princess Diana
The late princess got her love of the Eagles thanks to Princess of Monaco Grace Kelly. Kelly, who was originally from Philadelphia, died in a tragic car accident. Princess Diana attended the funeral to represent Britain, and that was where she ran into Jack Edelstein, the statistician for the Eagles who was a family friend on Princess Kelly. Diana saw Jack wearing the Eagles logo, and she fell in love with it and thought it was "graceful" Jack eventually gifted her that now-famous Eagles jacket, and the rest is history.
Questlove
Questlove is an avid Philadelphia sports fans since he grew up in the city. He and his band, "The Roots", played at halftime of the 2017 NFC Championship Game.
Rashawn Ross
Ross is famous for being the trumpeter for the Dave Matthews Band when they tour. It's unclear how he became an Eagles fan, but anyone wearing a Brian Dawkins jersey is good in our books.
Rob McElhenney
The It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia mastermind has always been a huge Eagles fan. He constantly references the team in his show, and was in attendance for Super Bowl LII. Soon after that game, he created two episodes based solely on the team's Super Bowl victory.
Ryan Phillippe
Phillippe rose to fame in the 1990s by starring in films like I Know What You Did Last Summer and Cruel Intentions. Being out in Hollywood though didn't change his roots, as he is still a huge fan of all Philly sports teams. The New Castle, Delaware native came back to Philly to make sure he got a chance to hold the Lombardi Trophy after the team won it in 2017.
Michael Buffer
Known for his famous trademarked line "LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE" before big boxing matches, Buffer is one of the biggest Eagles fans on social media. He was born in South Philadelphia and constantly talks about his childhood heroes that wore green and white jerseys at Franklin Field and has a signed photo of Chuck Bednarik's famous hit on Frank Gifford. He admitted crying tears of joy when the Birds won Super Bowl LII.
Samoa Joe
The WWE champion apparently is a big Randall Cunningham fan, even though he has no known connections to the area.
Sylvester Stallone
Rocky found a soft spot for Philadelphia's football team after spending many years in the city filming his hit movie franchise. Seen above, he helped open up Lincoln Financial Field it's first regular-season game in Week 1 of 2003.
Taylor Swift
The pop superstar grew up in Reading, Pennsylvania, so naturally, she grew up rooting for the closest sports teams. She has rocked an Eagles jersey at a few of her Philadelphia concerts.
Tina Fey
The Queen of Saturday Night Live helped inspire a few skits that involved the Eagles. Her most famous ones were the trash-talking ones with her Boston frienemy Amy Poehler. Obviously, growing up in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania was one of the biggest reasons that she was able to fall in love with the Eagles.
Will Smith
The "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" helped give the Eagles a little more recognition back in the 1990s, as he talked about his favorite football team multiple times on his hit show.
