The Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the NFL’s most storied franchises, and several celebrities aren’t afraid to show their love for the team.

Steelers Nation is one of the most devoted fanbases in all of sports, as the team even typically has a solid showing from its fanbase on road games. Most good teams can fill up their home stadium, but when a team has its fans traveling with them on the road to make their presence felt, that’s what shows how devoted they are.

That devoted fanbase includes people from all over the country, and some who don’t even live in the United States. Not only does it contain so many people, but some of those people are also well-known celebrities who come to the games often.

The following celebrities are a few of the many people who bleed black and gold, and while these are the five listed, there are plenty of other celebrities who are Steelers fans as well.

Bret Michaels, Musician

Bret Michaels may be a famous musician, but Steelers fans know him as one of them. Michaels is best known as the frontman for the rock band Poison, but he has also recorded solo albums as well and appeared on Celebrity Apprentice.

Michaels was born in Butler, Pennsylvania, which is just north of Pittsburgh so it is no surprise that he is a Steelers fan. In fact, not only is he a fan but according to NFL Draft prospect, Matt Corral, via the Rich Eisen Show, Michaels is pushing for the Steelers to select him as their next franchise quarterback.

While Michaels may not have any influence, the rock singer supporting Matt Corral as the team’s next quarterback shows that he is invested in the team.

Next time you’re at Heinz Field, take a look around, and you might see Bret Michaels waving his terrible towel just like you, while wearing his Steelers’ cowboy hat, or a Steelers bandana.
