24. Tim Cook, Auburn Tigers

Though he may not be the most public celebrity that we’re going to see, there’s a good chance that no person that will appear on this list has the influence over everyday lives throughout the world like Tim Cook does. Cook is, of course, the CEO of Apple, which makes him a pretty big deal. Now, you might be thinking that a person in that position couldn’t possibly care about college football.

Well, you’d be wrong if you’re thinking that way. If you go to Cook’s Twitter profile, the first thing that you see listed after “Apple CEO” is “Auburn” followed by a football emoji. The man oversees a billion-dollar company on a daily basis, but the second thing that he shows off to his 11 million followers on Twitter is that he loves the Auburn Tigers.

There’s a good chance that, despite how much influence Cook has on the lives of so many people as the CEO of Apple, most fans wouldn’t be able to recognize the man if he walked into a room wearing a suit or Auburn sweatshirt. But that doesn’t make him any less of a celebrity considering just how important he is in the modern, technologically driven world.

Of course, Cook has a few too many responsibilities to be out on the sidelines watching Auburn play all that often. That shouldn’t be held against him too hard, though. He’s kind of a big deal and, well, even for big fans, sometimes there are bigger things to deal with besides football.
