Which Celebrities Will Appear At WrestleMania 40?

WrestleMania has always been a huge attraction for celebrities. This year looks no different if betting sites are anything to go by.

WrestleMania 40 will take place on April 6 and 7 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. Several stars have been rumored to attend the spectacle.

In the event's 40-year history, boxing legend Muhammad Ali and singing sensation Cyndi Lauper have appeared, and it can be a nice side show, away from the main ring action, to see which stars have turned up.

One star who has already confirmed his attendance is rapper Lil' Wayne. He revealed on an episode of WWE Raw on April 1 that he will be at WrestleMania 40, and Grammy-nominated rapper Meek Mill is also expected to be there.

WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H invited Mill to the star-studded event late last month and urged the "All Eyes On You" hitmaker to keep his schedule open for WrestleMania 40.

It now looks like a done deal after Mill shared an Instagram ad that ended with the words, "Meek Mill #WrestleMania."

He wrote in the caption: "@tripleh ain’t this what they been waiting for PHILLY WE JUST GETTING STARTED (sic)."

With Wayne and Meek pretty much confirmed, who else could rock up at WrestleMania 40?

McGregor Odds-On For WrestleMania Appearance

Conor McGregor is the -138 favorite on WWE betting sites to make an appearance at this weekend's spectacle.

He has long been linked to a transition from UFC to WWE, but he has not been that complimentary about wrestling over the years, and in June 2023, he said he wasn't interested in working with WWE.

However, the UFC and WWE now operate under the same TKO Group parent company, which has fueled speculation McGregor might make the move.

Just three weeks ago, he was asked on the YouTube channel Adam's Apple about whether he would consider joining the WWE, and he replied: "You never know, let's see."

If that is in the pipeline, then McGregor may want to get a closer look at some of his potential future opponents this weekend.

Drew Due At WrestleMania

Drew Barrymore is just +100 on specials sites to appear at WrestleMania after she had several WWE stars on her talk show recently.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson—who will join forces with his cousin Roman Reigns to take on Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins in a tag match on Night 1—and John Cena have appeared on "The Drew Barrymore Show" of late.

While Cena won't be in the ring, Logan Paul will take on Randy Orton and Kevin Owens for the United States Championship, and his brother Jake Paul is just +150 to be cheering on his sibling in the marquee match in Philadelphia.

What's more, it is +400 that Post Malone, who recently curated the soundtrack for the video game WWE 2K24, will make a WrestleMania 40 appearance.

Travis Kelce And Taylor Swift To Attend?

One of the most talked-about celebrity romances of late has been NFL star Travis Kelce's and pop megastar Taylor Swift's hookup.

It's now thought the showbiz power couple could take their relationship to the next level by gracing WrestleMania 40 with their presence.

Swift is a +300 shot for an appearance, but her significant other, Travis, is just +200 on betting apps.

It wouldn't be a huge surprise if the Kansas City Chiefs star turned up without Swift on his arm because he could attend alongside his brother, former NFL player Jason Kelce, who is just +125 for an appearance.

Jason is no stranger to Philadelphia after starring for the Philadelphia Eagles for his entire 13-year career until his retirement earlier this year.

Elsewhere, The Rock's "Jumanji" co-star Kevin Hart is +600 to appear at WrestleMania 40, while fellow actor Bradley Cooper - who is a Philadelphia native - is +800.

Hollywood legend Sylvester Stallone (+700) is also no stranger to Philadelphia, after using the Philadelphia Museum of Art's steps in the "Rocky" film franchise, earning them the nickname the Rocky Steps.

Triple H has previously invited NBA star Joel Embiid, who plays for the Philadelphia 76ers, to WrestleMania 40.

Embiid (+1000) admitted in October that he wasn't sure he could make it, but he may have cleared his schedule by now.

Whichever stars head to Philly, the ring action looks set to be well worth the trip.
