18 famous athletes (and coaches!) who have starred in music videos, from LeBron James to Serena Williams

  • Soccer manager José Mourinho recently starred in British rapper Stormzy's new music video.
  • The 59-year-old Portuguese coach isn't the first sports star to make a cameo in a music video, however.

The former Chelsea FC and Manchester United manager José Mourinho made headlines last week when he appeared in the music video for British rapper Stormzy's new track, "Mel Made Me Do It."

Mourinho, who is now the manager of Italian side AS Roma, popped up in the video just as Stormzy rapped the line: "I prefer not to speak like I'm José."

While manager of Chelsea in 2014, Mourinho said in a post-match interview after his side had lost to Aston Villa: "I prefer not to speak. If I speak I'm in big trouble."

As well as Mourinho, Stormzy also called on the Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt and the former England and Arsenal striker Ian Wright to make cameos in the video – which has already been viewed more than 3 million times on YouTube.

Mourinho, Bolt, and Wright, however aren't the first famous sports figures to appear in a music video.

Here are 15 others who have done it before.
