Hollywood Director Spike Lee Reveals Why He Supports Arsenal

Spike Lee is a Gooner, and it’s down to one man…

Hollywood director Spike Lee has revealed that he is an Arsenal fan while speaking to Labour MP and self-proclaimed Spurs fan David Lammy, as per Joe.co.uk.

Lee joins a number of well-established list of famous entertainers who’ve picked Arsenal as their favourite football team after Jay-Z claimed that he was also a Gooner.

The rapper once toyed with the idea of purchasing shares in the club and while that notion has passed, he recently did a commercial deal with his club through his streaming service TIDAL.

A deal worth £1m-per year was announced in June which will see our players create playlists for the streaming service as well as other promotional campaigns.

Just like Jay-Z, it was Gunners icon Thierry Henry who drew them to the club, the Frenchman was the definition of elegance.

Why does Spike Lee support @Arsenal? Well, @ThierryHenry of course!

“I’m going to the game tomorrow!” Lee said to David Lammy when he brought up the topic of Arsenal.

A weirdly bemused Lammy asked how the Malcom X director came to support the Gunners and he simply replied: “Thierry Henry, Thierry Henry. You can’t blame for me that, though.”

We’re still the biggest club in London. Lammy would do well to remember that.
