'Ted Lasso' Season 2: Celebrities Respond to Their Shoutouts on Apple TV+ Series
Reba McEntire
I believe you’re holding a ticket for… @TedLasso pic.twitter.com/y31TxgtYUS

Roy Kent mentioned Reba McEntire in a previous episode as that was his alias to pick up tickets. This led to McEntire making her own graphic indicating she wants to be part of the series.
Drew Barrymore
Drew Barrymore was very excited when she heard her name in Ted Lasso. AFC Richmond was talking about rom-coms, and Barrymore was mentioned among top actors in romantic comedies.
Lin-Manuel Miranda
Football is LIIIIIIIIIIIIFE ❤️❤️❤️-LMM https://t.co/riUY1hVu0a

Ted and Coach Beard pulled off a subtle joke about Hamilton in the Season 2 premiere. This led to Hamilton creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda showing love to the series by saying "Football is life."
Pearl Jam
@TedLasso getting into the spirit tonight! Amazing episode written by @brettgoldstein. #30yearsofTen @jasonsudeikis @AFCRichmond @SpursOfficial pic.twitter.com/ABRBINGTGH

Pearl Jam is a big fan of Ted Lasso and loves the episode where the band is mentioned. Brett Goldstein earned a ton of love for Pearl Jam for writing the episode.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney

Because Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney own a Welsh football club, Ted Lasso had no choice but to shout them out. AFC Richmond doesn't believe Reynolds and McElhenney own a team, which led to the duo writing a letter to Apple TV+
Brene Brown
Yes, I lost my mind.

Yes, I have a new book coming out this year.
No, it’s not titled “Enter the Arena but Bring a Knife.”#believe #worththewait pic.twitter.com/HsCSoAu2rc
Brene Brown tried to be cool about her shootout, but her swag says otherwise. Ted Lasso star Brendan Hunt wrote: "They say that when it comes to being a football supporter, you don't choose your club; your club chooses you."
Diane Sawyer
Dear @TedLasso - I’m in. Your move. pic.twitter.com/durjeZkeIj

Could we see Diane Sawyer and Ted Lasso be the next power couple? Sawyer is clearly in, and Lasso tweeted: "Oh my…you've got me more on my heels than Lady Gaga at the Met Gala. Any chance you like biscuits?"
