15 Celebrities Who Are Huge Bandwagon Sports Fans

Bandwagon Sports Fans — There are sports fans and then there are bandwagon sports fans. The latter are the worst kind of fan on the planet. In fact, I can’t think of anything I hate more. What makes me even angrier is watching celebrities claim to be fans of a certain team one day and sitting courtside cheering on a different team the next. Here’s a look at 15 celebrities who are huge bandwagon sports fans.

15. Snoop Dogg

Snoop Dogg — Like most rappers, Snoop Dogg has a closet full of sports clothes. Regardless, a sign of a bandwagon fan is someone who is willing to step out in gear that represents different teams. Take your pick of any big city team and I guarantee Snoop Dogg has been photographed wearing at least one form of memorabilia.

John Cusack — Actor John Cusack has stated that he’s a fan of both the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox. Even though someone would suggest this doesn’t exactly qualify as a bandwagon fan, I believe it does because the teams are cross-town rivals. It would be like rooting for the New York Mets and New York Yankees. It just doesn’t work.

LeBron James — LeBron James has been seen wearing a Yankees cap at Cleveland Indians games. He also became a fan of the Miami Marlins when the team signed Jose Reyes. On top of that, he likes the Dallas Cowboys. I suppose that doesn’t necessarily make him a bandwagon fan, but both the Yankees and the Cowboys is ridiculous.

Eminem — Rapper Eminem has never been shy about his support for the city of Detroit. That includes Detroit’s sports teams. However, how can one root for the Detroit Lions and the Cowboys? It just doesn’t make any sense.

11. David Beckham

David Beckham — Some would give David Beckham a pass because he moved to Los Angeles to play for the Galaxy, which gives him a right to root for L.A. teams, especially since he’s from England. I also give him respect for taking an interest in U.S. sports. With that being said, Beckham appears to show his face at Lakers and Kings games only when it’s convenient (they’re winning).

Will Ferrell — Will Ferrell is a die-hard USC Trojan fan so I won’t take that away from him. However, the comedic actor has been seen wearing Kansas City Royals and Los Angeles Dodgers gear. He also is supposedly a fan of the Green Bay Packers and roots for the Chicago Cubs.

9. Jessica Alba

Jessica Alba — Actress Jessica Alba basically cheers for any team located in California. More specifically, basketball teams located in California. The only issue with this is the basketball teams are intense rivals, which makes it peculiar to root for all of them.

John Cena — John Cena is a born Celtics fan from Massachusetts. Yet, he has been seen wearing a Lakers jersey courtside at the Staples Center. It’s like Gyllenhaal’s Yankees-Red Sox predicament all over again.

6. Drake

Drake — Some might just consider Drake to be the ultimate bandwagon fan. He’s been known to support the Heat, Toronto Raptors, and Clippers. He also cheers for the Kansas Wildcats and UConn Huskies. In baseball, he roots for the Toronto Blue Jays and Houston Astros. On top of everything else, he’s a Texas A&M fan. Drake is all over the place, but typically only shows himself when a team he roots for his winning.

Ric Flair — Ric Flair made the huge mistake of giving the San Francisco 49ers a postseason pep talk despite being a long-time fan of the Carolina Panthers. He managed to not only anger the Panthers fan base, but also wide receiver Steve Smith in the process.

Lil Wayne — Rapper Lil Wayne rocks Heat, Chicago Bulls, OKC Thunder, and Lakers gear. He also supports the Dodgers and the San Francisco Giants. The only team I know for sure he is a legitimate supporter of is the Packers, which he has been since he was a kid.

Kim Kardashian — I apologize for even mentioning the socialite on this list but it couldn’t be helped. Kim Kardashian was a fan of whichever team her boyfriend played for. That means she has rooted for the Dallas Cowboys, Detroit Lions, and the Brooklyn Nets. She also sports Dodgers clothing every now and then. Not to mention, she hangs out at Lakers and Clippers games.

Rihanna — Rihanna is a fan of numerous NBA teams, which includes the conflicting Lakers and Clippers. She also sports the Heat whenever the opportunity presents itself. As far as female fans are concerned, she takes the cake when it comes to bandwagon fans.

Justin Bieber — Justin Bieber is hands down the biggest celebrity bandwagon sports fan there is. He’s been seen wearing a L.A. Kings hat and a Chicago Blackhawks Hat, as well as, an Orlando Magic hat and Miami Heat hat. We can chalk this up as he just likes the way the gear looks, but he’s also been seen courtside cheering on these different teams. Not to mention, his hat collection consists of the most popular teams in sports.
