. Frankie Boyle
Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle is a Celtic fan and, whilst he doesn't often discuss football, he has taken to social media on the odd occasion to make clear which of the Glasgow clubs he follows. On the current Covid-19 crisis and its impact on football - and in particular the title race between the Hoops and Rangers - he recently tweeted: "It's almost worth it to see Celtic handed a 9th title in a row in the bitterest possible circumstances." | Other 3rd Party Photo: Photo Third Party

. Kevin Bridges
Celtic-daft Kevin Bridges once said he was snubbed by singer Nicole Scherzinger after bumping into her at an event. “I told her that I’m a Celtic fan and we used to have a South Korean right-back called Cha Du-Ri. And we used to sing, ‘Dontcha wish your right-back was Cha Du-Ri?’ She never laughed." | JPIMedia Photo: Photo: Third Party

. Jim Kerr
Simple Minds frontman Jim Kerr is another huge Celtic fan. He once duped his grandkids into thinking he played for the Hoops. "They were a wee bit upset that the kids in the class were laughing when they were adamant that their grandad was a rock star who played for Celtic," he said in a recent interview. | JPIMedia Photo: Photo: JPI Media
