The Finest Female Fans of Professional Sports

Victoria “Posh” Beckham loves the LA Dodgers. How do I know? Because after throwing out the first pitch last year, she told reporters, “It’s a huge honour for me. I love the Dodgers.”

The NY Knicks are terrible, but at least, they have three adoring fans left: Beyonce Knowles, Tyra Banks and Def Jam mogul Russell Simmons’ wife Kimora Lee. Oh, Jay-Z was there too, but no one cares.

Desperate Housewives’ Eva Longoria is a die-hard San Antonio Spurs fan. Don’t believe me? Type in “Eva Longoria Spurs” into Google, and you’ll find that she attends every game possible.

No one adores Boston Red Sox mascot, Wally, more than Jennifer Garner. The picture speaks for itself.

When you start dressing your children in sports apparel, you’re an obsessed fan, like Kate Hudson who clearly loves the Golden State Warriors.

At the tail end of last season, almost everyone was a NY Giants fans, including Demi Moore and Cameron Diaz, who were spotted at multiple games. Who's that guy with them, though?

Sarah Jessica Parker played the quintessential New Yorker on Sex and the City, but dating the

A devoted fan and girlfriend, Jessica Simpson can often be found cheering on Tony Romo in a pink Dallas Cowboy's jersey, despite complaints from some that she is jinxing the football player.

The always attractive Anna Kournikova isn't just a tennis person; she can be seen in the stands at Miami Heat games alongside boyfriend Enrique Iglesias.

Jessica Alba shows her support for good friend Baron Davis by rooting on the Golden State Warriors and providing a little eye candy on the side.

A loyal New York Islanders fan, Christie Brinkley even dropped the ceremonial first puck at the kickoff of the team's 2007-2008 game.

Alyssa Milano is a dedicated fan of the Los Angeles Dodgers and that's not just because she sells MLB clothing on the side.

In this week’s excursion into the realm of professional sports, we turn our collective attention to the fandom surrounding some of the biggest teams in the MLB, NFL, NHL and NBA.

Unsurprisingly, many male celebrities attend sporting events (Hi, Spike Lee!), but who cares about them – they’re a known quantity.

Die-hard female celebrity fans, however, are a veritable rarity.

And so, OTR presents a list (in no particular order) of some of the finer ones you shouldn’t be surprised to see at the next big game:
