New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams are no different, and both will be cheered on by some of the biggest stars on the planet in Atlanta.

Here's our guide to some of the famous faces you could be seeing at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Super Bowl 53.

Mark Wahlberg (Patriots)

There's nobody more Boston than actor Mark Wahlberg. He even starred in the film Patriots Day about the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013.

The 47-year-old was at the Super Bowl in 2017 to witness New England's dramatic comeback against Atlanta.

Snoop Dogg (Rams)

Music icon Snoop Dogg performed during the Rams' play-off clash against the Atlanta Falcons last season at the LA Coliseum.

While he wasn't a lucky charm on that occasion as the Falcons ran out comfortable winners, Snoop Dogg plans on being in Atlanta and is even promoting his own pre-game party.

Matt Damon (Patriots)

Born across the river from Boston in Cambridge, the 48-year-old actor is one of Tom Brady's biggest fans.

When asked his Super Bowl prediction last year against the Philadelphia Eagles, he said: “It’s going to be the Patriots and the team that loses.”

Unfortunately for Damon, he was wrong.

Red Hot Chili Peppers (Rams)

The California band wore Rams shirts when they welcomed the team back to Los Angeles with a concert ahead of their home opener against Seattle in 2016.
Band member Flea once said: “Since I was a little boy, I’ve taken joy in the beauty of the Rams. When I moved to Los Angeles in 1972, I was getting uprooted from my home and I thought, ‘Well, where I’m going they’ve got the Rams. It’s going to be all right.’”

Elton John (Patriots)

Since performing a gig at Gillette Stadium to herald the start of the 2004 NFL season, the British musician has quite a close relationship with Patriots owner Robert Kraft.

He even performed at a private Kraft party a couple of years ago.

James Corden (Rams)

Nobody actually knows whether the British comedian is actually a Rams fan, but he did perform as one of their cheerleaders.

During a segment for his hit US talk programme The Late Late Show, Corden strutted his stuff in a skimpy outfit in the California sun.

Jon Bon Jovi (Patriots)

The 56-year-old music icon witnessed New England's comeback against Jacksonville to win the AFC Championship Game last year in Foxboro.

Coach Bill Belichick rarely looks delighted, but he was pretty happy to see Jon Bon Jovi on the field after the game.
