I think Robert Pattinson made a reference to MLP During an interview once...I'm not sure if he actually watches the show or not though. So put him down under "Suspected Bronies" I suppose

Confirmed bronies:
Lady Gaga
Stephen Colbert
Notch

Did Stephen actually say he was a brony, or did he just make that one shout-out? You don't have to be part of something in order to make a shout-out to it (ex. I'd like to make a shout-out to all Neo Nazi's out there... Sorry about that, it was just to prove a point).

"All my Neo Nazis". It doesn't set it in stone, but for all intents and purposes, I'll let it slide.

I'm pretty sure in a similar thread to this one someone pointed out that Colbert also made a joke where he said he was hungry for some chicken and took out and pretended to eat a Scootaloo toy.

Also, Notch said that he liked the show, but did not become a brony.

How is GaGa a brony?

And also, what proof is there for this?

EDIT: Found the previous thread we had for celebrity bronies, check Hazzat's post (#7) for the Colbert Scootaloo shout out.

You have to be pretty knowledgeable about the fandom to know that joke.

How can Lady gaga be a "Brony" when SHE is a girl? She would be classified under "Pegasister."

Again, Lady gaga is a girl. Therefore she is a Pegasister, not a Brony.
(Not angry, just trying to let people who have never heard the word pegasister know it exists.)

I've heard of the term pegasister before, however many female fans (including one who I know IRL) have said that they prefer the term brony, and therefore it has basically come to be a unisex term. Pegasister never really got very popular.

Come on guys, fact check, at least a little.

1. Notch is not a brony.


2. The Stephen Colbert thing was a lie, it was from an old clip.
About 2:35 in this, the actual clip, he even refers to Scootaloo as Pinkie Pie.

3. Simon?? Watch the video where he played the copy of our world, I can show lots of evidence, but the best is that he didn't know what a cutie mark was. here. And in case anyone wonders if Lewis is a brony, he didn't know who luna was later in the vid, there's more, but just watch that series where they are ponies to see.

Lady Gaga, she's a fan of the old MLP, and made some necklace with Ponies on it, like an artist just using random objects and making art out of them. You really think she's seen the new show?
http://socialitelife...le-pony-03-2011

Chris Griffin? I googled, was there an episode where he was a brony? I'm curious now.

Seth Green? All people have is one picture taken, and some other thing where his wife was shown liking it. He did say he met with Hasbro to try to get permission for Apocalypse Pony toys. I guess he's as much of a brony as lady gaga.

Robert Patterson must have gotten on the list for this, really? He didn't say twilight sparkle, thats not really in depth knowledge or him saying he likes my little pony.

I'm surprised nobody posted this as if it was real



OMGZ YOU GUYZ OBAMA IS A BRONY! IT WAS REAL I SAW!

Someday we might get an actual celeb that is what we would call a real brony, I just haven't seen it yet.

ok so notch isn't a brony but wants to be a moved to potential
i consider a brony to be a fan of any mlp, unless everyone here says it should just be g4
and simon didn't know then, but that was a while ago, he probably wasn't even exposed to mlp before that. hannah could have converted him at any time as well. but it's obvious he likes cute things and ponies so...

and i honestly can't find anything to show that chris is a brony so please post a link Adwrynn

Ugh, I thought that was enough evidence, how about an email I got from a staffer there saying they are not?
Peva emailed me "Hannah is also a huge fan of the show, but i'm not sure how extensively she has watched it or how much of the community she has gotten into. Simon and Lewis have known about the show for a long time now (thanks to Hannah mostly).". So they've known about it, if either Simon or Lewis were made bronies in the last 4 months, one of them would have to say something to indicate they have seen some episodes.

1. Notch is not a brony.
https://twitter.com/...473744702447617

This I would dispute. Not long after that tweet he started dropping hints all over the place that he had been watching it. But he wisely decided that, given the reaction after his first supposed brony announcement, it would be best to keep it fairly secret.

Things I've learned.
1. Most people hide it, i dunno why, but they do.
2. Never , ever, ever, ever, ever... use the "P word". I've gotten a lot of heat from the female fanbase, most prefer "brony"
3. This show affects people. Be it good or bad. Most people are usually civil about it, but it's the strongly opinionated ones that stand out.
Notch eh, I did not know that.

Brony is a unisex term, so brony comes under both female and male.
