Let's play a game: when we ask you to picture a football fan, what's the first image that comes to your mind? If you pictured a sweaty, hairy man with a beer-belly in an oversized jersey, with a drink in hand while shouting at the television screen for every missed opportunity, we won't blame you. That's how a typical football fan would look like, honestly.
But relax, not all football fans are that scary-looking. Some of the world's most popular - and of course, hottest - celebrities are avid fans of the beautiful game too.
With Paraguay's most famous fan Larissa Riquelme in mind, I list down 15 of the hottest and most popular football fans in the world. They sure put beautiful in the 'beautiful game'.
She's a fan of: Arsenal
Seriously, there's no hotter Arsenal fan than former S Club 7 hottie Rachel Stevens, who also happens to be one of Britain's most desirable women.
CAROLINE WOZNIACKIShe's a fan of: Liverpool
The women's world number one tennis player Caroline Wozniacki is a huge, huge Liverpool fan. And her favourite Liverpool player? Who else but captain amazing Steven Gerrard.
CAT DEELEYShe's a fan of: West Bromwich Albion
Who knew 'So You Think You Can Dance' hottie Cat Deeley is a football fan? The 34-year-old is a fan of Premier League side West Brom, despite her mom, dad and brothers being huge Wolverhampton fans. She's quite a rebel, we see.
SHANIA TWAINShe's a fan of: Newcastle United
Shania Twain is a songstress all the way from Canada, and she loves English Premier League side Newcastle United. Talk about long distance relationships.
NADINE COYLEShe's a fan of: Celtic
The pretty Nadine Coyle, one fourth of all-girl band Girls Aloud, is a world traveller: born in Ireland, joined an English band and a die-hard supporter of Scottish side Celtic.
KATE WINSLETShe's a fan of: Reading
Yup, the award-winning, 'Titanic' star Kate Winslet is actually quite an avid Reading fan, considering that she was born in Reading. Ironically, they sank like the Titanic back to the Championship after only a season in the Premier League.
LAURA ESPOSTOShe's a fan of: AC Milan
The super sexy Laura Esposto is an Italian model and TV personality, and she's a die-hard AC Milan fan. She's such a big fan; she's been presenting Rossoneri's home matches since 2005.
CHERYL COLEShe's a fan of: Newcastle United
You might think that because her on-off-and-on again husband Ashley Cole plays for Chelsea, Cheryl Cole is a keen supporter of the London club, but no: the Girls Aloud front woman supports Newcastle United. Wonder if the Coles trash talk at home.
CAMERON DIAZShe's a fan of: Brentford
We know she surfs, and is quite a sports fan, but Hollywood A-Lister Cameron Diaz actually follows English second division club Brentford FC because she's a fan of Dan Tara, former chairman of the club who now owns her favourite restaurant in Los Angeles.
KEIRA KNIGHTLEYShe's a fan of: West Ham United
English beauty Keira Knightley is actually quite the diehard fan of West Ham United. In fact, when the Hammers were promoted to the Premier League in 2005, the 26-year-old actress, who was based in LA then, would catch the team in action from a local pub in Santa Monica - at 6am! Talk about dedication.
ADRIANA LIMAShe's a fan of: Inter Milan
She might have married a pro basketball player, but Victoria's Secret Angel Adriana Lima is also a big fan of Italian giants Inter Milan. It's not every day you see a football-loving Angel.
LARISSA RIQUELMEShe's a fan of: Paraguay national team
Lingerie model Larissa Riquelme, if you do not know this by now, is the world's most famous football fan, no thanks to her infamous nude exploits after the 2010 World Cup. She's known as 'The World Cup's Girlfriend' for a reason.
SHAKIRAShe's a fan of: Barcelona or Real Madrid, we have no idea
Yup, hips don't lie: Colombian pop star Shakira is a crazy football fan. Although her boyfriend, World Cup hero Gerard Pique, plays for Spanish giants Barcelona, she lists Barca's arch rivals Real Madrid as her favourite football club. That's a conflict of interest right there.
CATHERINE ZETA-JONESShe's a fan of: Swansea City
One of the most beautiful women in the world, Catherine Zeta-Jones, could arguably be Swansea City's most beautiful supporter ever. She was raised in Swansea, Wales, so we're pretty sure that's the reason why she supports the team in the first place.
EVA LONGORIAShe's a fan of: Chivas USA
The petite but oh-so-hot Eva Longoria is a fan of Major League Soccer side Chivas USA, although we suspect she also likes LA Galaxy because her bestie David Beckham plays for them.
