When it comes to celebrities who rock heat on a daily basis, it isn't too tough to put together an A-list of who's who in the sneaker game. We dug a little bit deeper and found a few actors, athletes, and musicians (we'll get to the hip-hop game later) that are down with kicks and worth a follow on your favorite social media venue. Check out our gallery of 15 Unexpected Celebrity Sneakerheads To Follow On Twitter.

Terrence J

Followers: 933,026

Besides replacing The Predator A.J. on BET's 106 & Park Terrence stepped the style game up too constantly rotating some ill sneakers on the show. God bless Rocsi for giving us a real reason to catch up with the show. 

Lily Allen  

Followers: 3,304,425

Lily Allen took a little hiatus around the time of her journey into motherhood but we haven't forget the girl who was rocking Air Max 1s and Jordans nightly in Europe. 

Victor Cruz 

Followers: 102,206 

One of the key reasons your fantasy squad earned you cash, oh yeah — and helped the Giants make another crazy run to the Super Bowl thanks to his "get off me" 80-yard receptions and salsa celebrations. Besides crushin' it on the field, Cruz has been spotted sitting courtside in heat and showing off his latest and greatest pickups on Twitter. 

Jerry Ferrara  

Followers: 112,262

Turtle lives it like he spits it (nah we don't mean the mile-high hand job from Meadow Soprano). Be honest, a few of you didn't know that much about chasing limited releases until his Entourage character was out there in the battlefield going after a rare pair of AF1s. In real life Jerry has a pretty legit collection of Dunks, AF1s, and Jordans.

Rudy Gay 

Followers: 389,349 

Rudy came from UCONN, one of the trillest college sneaker squads in the nation, so you knew he was destined for greatness. This past summer he gave the world a look at his collection thanks to social media and even hooked up a few fans. Gilbert Arenas, where you at? (No, seriously, where are you?)

Brian Wilson 

Followers: 452,871

If you didn't see Brian Wilson rocking the Nike Air Mags in the San Francisco Giants dugout last fall you need to keep up with our Spotted section on the reg. Dude's style is pretty bizarre on a near Dennis Rodman-tip but you can't front on the kicks. #FEARTHEBEARD

Lance Gross 

Followers: 140,825 

Lance Gross is a sneaker dude for sure, the actor best known for his roles in Tyler Perry productions keeps it low key — 'nuff said. Truth is our man Lance doesn't just mess with Js but he goes all out on the premium edition joints. 

Jeremy Guthrie 

Followers: 29,395

You may not be familiar with this name (although he has pitched for Team USA in 2009 World Baseball Classic and was the Opening Day starter for the Baltimore Orioles). Who cares about that? Jeremy Guthrie's real claim to fame is the fact that the right-hander slangs kicks into his LITERAL sneaker vault which includes his pair of custom Jordan I spikes.

Mayer Hawthorne 

Followers: 52,964

His Cali style is on point and if you're a fan you know he has been rocking red suits on stage long before Mr. West's 2009 VMA appearance. Instead of the all-red LVs though, he prefers Nike Dunks like the DJ AM editions while he kills the crowd. 

Nate Robinson 

Followers: 511,674

Nate has been impressing heads for a while with his exclsuives in Slam Dunk Contests and on the court — lately he has been showing his game off the court thanks to his Twitter/Instagram. A long time Barkley guy, he seems to have made the switch to Jordans in Golden State. Can't argue with that.

Chumlee  

Followers: 112,107

Yeah, "Pawn Stars" isn't necessarily in a sneakerheads' TV rotation, but if you know anything about our dude Austin "Chumlee" Russell, then you know he has some fire in his closet — he was the one who got called on when a budding entrepreneur tried to sell a pair of Air Mags on the show. His personal stash would confuse the Old Man, but we know heat when we see it. 

Eddy Curry 

Followers: 7,574

Eddy Curry's talent may be MIA on the court the last few seasons, but at least he is reppin' it with the basketball sneakers during his downtime. Just over the past month we have seen him don some official Bron's as well as some Yeezys shopping in San Fran with the little homie Nate Robinson. 

Marcus Gilchrist 

Followers: 3,396

His name may not ring out like Revis' when it comes to defensive backs in the AFC but young'n is killin' it with his sneakers as of late. If you have been on Nike Talk you have seen dude featured recently and going through his Twitpics we understand. 

Pete Wentz 

Followers: 2,420,790

Built for the rock star life, former Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz usually keeps it clean in some COMME des GARÇONS collabs or the extreme hightop Supras. If there's ever a Clandestine Industries collab, you'll probably see it on Pete's timeline first.

Ty Lawson 

Followers: 81,336 

Ty Lawson was always getting outshined by 'Melo on the court but if you paid attention you caught some crazy Nike iDs that Ty put together. (And now with Melo gone, dude the second-leading scorer on a 14-7 squad.) Check through Lawson's timeline and you'll see the guard keeps things stacked off the floor as well.
