WATCH: Celebrity Fans React To Eagles Super Bowl Win

PHILADELPHIA, PA — The Eagles were not alone on their historic journey to their first-ever Super Bowl championship, a journey which ended in dramatic fashion on Sunday night with a 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots.

Numerous celebrities with ties to the Philadelphia area have been waiting for an Eagles Super Bowl win their entire lives. And when they finally got it, their reactions told the whole story.

The fact that the Eagles were underdogs throughout the entire playoffs - including 4.5 underdogs to the Patriots Sunday - only made the victory sweeter.

"Eagles stunning win shows why you should treat pundits in sports, politics, economics and much else with the proverbial grain of salt," Steve Forbes, publishing executive and CEO of Forbes, tweeted.

Bradley Cooper, who grew up in the area, is shown in box seating with Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie. After the Eagles scored a touchdown, Cooper pumped his fists and pointed enthusiastically onto the field.

Major League Baseball player Mike Trout, a south Jersey native and longtime Eagle fan (and hunting buddy of Carson Wentz) was in the stands, holding his hands in the air and high-fiving everyone in the seats around him.

Outside the stadium, reporters caught up with 76ers All-Star Joel Embiid, who was fired up. "We're next," he said, pointing into the camera and leaning in. "Trust the process!"

Philly-native Will Smith, meanwhile, posted a video of him dancing joyously to the theme music of "Rocky" after the game. Before the game, he made a short video that showed him laying out his outfit, complete with an Eagles keychain and a Nick Foles jersey.

Sylvester Stallone posted a picture on Instagram which showed him standing by a railing overlooking the roaring stadium, his arms held high in the air like Rocky, sporting a Stallone Eagles jersey.

Former Vice President Joe Biden attended the game along with his wife, Jill Biden. A video posted to Twitter by Jill Biden showed the family leaping up and down and celebrating as the game ended.

"So many hard-working people have been down and out, so many working class people, and this just gives them reason to hope and dream," Joe Biden told reporters in a postgame interview on the field. Biden, a Scranton, Pennsylvania native, represented Eagles territory as a U.S. Senator from Delaware for years.

CNN anchor and Philly native Jake Tapper was also at the game, and tweeted a photo of himself holding an index finger in the air as celebrations roared on the field behind him.

"The Eagles HAVE LANDED," astronaut Buzz Aldrin tweeted.

But the best reaction may have been all-time NBA great Kobe Bryant's. Bryant, of course, won five NBA championships with the Los Angeles Lakers and was widely regarded as one of the most dominant players of his era. But before he played for the Lakers, he went to Lower Merion High School, and grew up rooting for Philadelphia sports franchises.

In the video below, Bryant is standing front of his TV screen holding his infant daughter, watching the game's final seconds tick away.

"Oh no, oh no, no, no, no, oh, thank God, oh we won, we won (expletive) the Super Bowl!"
