Eagles fans delighted to learn Anne Hathaway is a fellow Philadelphia supporter after Super Bowl appearance

The Philadelphia Eagles have a surprising A-list fan - and it's actress Anne Hathaway. On Sunday, the Les Misérables star attended the Super Bowl in New Orleans as the Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs. During the game, she cheered on the Eagles from the stands as she wore a white button-down tank top with a bright green sweater draped around her shoulders. Cameras even caught her dancing and cheering as the Eagles continued to score throughout the night - and it's no coincidence that both of her parents went to school in Philadelphia.

On X, many fans delighted in the fact that Hathaway, who is from New Jersey, seemed to be cheering on the winning Eagles. 'Notice how Anne Hathaway on the Eagles side? That’s my Princess of Genovia,' one person wrote, in a hilarious nod to her hit movie, Princess Diaries. Another typed, 'The most important takeaway from this game is that Anne Hathaway is an Eagles fan.'. 'Anne Hathaway being an Eagles fan just made today so much better, what a queen,' someone else agreed.

'Bradley Cooper and Anne Hathaway won tonight,' a second X user joked, giving a nod to the actor's love for the Philadelphia team.

One user quipped, 'Congratulations to Anne Hathaway’s favorite team!'. 'The Eagles did this for Anne Hathaway. I would give her the game ball if it was me,' another joked. The Eagles beat the Chiefs 40-22, a rematch from the 2023 Super Bowl, where the Chiefs took home the Lombardi Trophy. The Philadelphia football team blocked the Chiefs' ability to make history Sunday with a 'threepeat' - winning three Super Bowls in a row.

However, although Hathaway may have been rooting for the Eagles tonight, she once expressed her love for The New York Giants. She spoke about her support during an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in 2015, when Fallon pointedly asked her how the team was doing. That year, they came in 3rd in the AFC East.

'You know what this season reminds me of?' she continued. 'It reminds me of the 2007 season when we started 0 and 2 and ended up with a ring.'. She joked that it was all up to Eli Manning, who played for the team for 16 seasons. 'Take it home, buddy,' she joked.
