Unhealthy Junk Food Chains Owned by Celebs!

Celebs know that their names are worth millions, so some stars launch personal brands whilst others buy into fast food chains. 

Here are 9 celebrities who invested in fast food chains to keep the pay-checks flowing.

1. Rick Ross Loves His Wings!

Devoted Chicken Wing fan, Rick Ross, not only mentions it in one of his songs, but also bought Wingstop locations in Memphis and Miami. He wanted to enjoy his favorite wings in his favorite city!

2. Kim’s King Isn’t Kanye

Kanye West bought his wife, Kim Kardashian, 10 European Burger King branches as a wedding present! He thought it would be a great venture for Kim once she’s done with reality TV.

3. Magic Johnson Created Jobs

In Ladera, California, he set up Starbucks stores and a TGI Fridays, creating jobs for people in the area. The basketball legend also installed tables outside the stores for the chess lovers of the neighborhood. Is he revolutionizing business? Nope, he’s “magicizing” it!

4. Shaq Loves His Pretzels

O’Neal’s frame might suggest he eats lots of protein, but the basketball superstar has a weakness for pretzels. Why else would he splurge on 17 Auntie Anne’s chains?

5. Peyton Owns 21 Fast Food Chains!

Manning is either a savvy businessman or just loves his 'za! With 21 Papa John’s franchises in Denver, it’s no wonder “Papa” Paul Schnatter is considering naming a pizza after the Super Bowl star.

6. Venus Williams’ Healthy Habit

It’s not surprising that the uber-fit World tennis champion Venus Williams is the owner of two franchises of Jamba Juice in the Washington D.C. area and plans to open more in the next five years.

7. Kanye West’s Food Fail

Kanye may have gifted Kim the greatest fast food bouquet in history, but his own dip into the fast food deep-fryer was short-lived. He planned to set up 10 Fatburger chains. Only two came to fruition and both shut down within a few years.

8. NeNe’s Investment

NeNe owns a Famous Famiglia Pizzeria franchise in the Sacramento Airport. It’s a rather simple joint that serves basic pizzas and pastas. It’s hard to believe such plain fare suits flamboyant Leakes’ palate.

9. Drew Brees’ Favorite Food

Drew decided to open up a Jimmy John’s in New Orleans and says the purchase was driven by his nostalgia for the chain, and the desire to be part of New Orleans’ vibrant culinary culture.
