The Politics of Soccer Celebrity
Messi, Ronaldo, and the Politics of Celebrity Elections: Voting For the Best Soccer Player in the World Christopher J. Anderson London School of Economics and Political Science Luc Arrondel Paris School of Economics André Blais University of Montréal Jean-François Daoust McGill University Jean-François Laslier Paris School of Economics Karine Van der Straeten Toulouse School of Economics Abstract It is widely assumed that celebrities are imbued with political capital and the power to move opinion. To understand the sources of that capital in the specific domain of sports celebrity, we investigate the popularity of global soccer superstars. Specifically, we examine players’ success in the Ballon d’Or – the most high profile contest to select the world’s best player. Based on historical election results as well as an original survey of soccer fans, we find that certain kinds of players are significantly more likely to win the Ballon d’Or. Moreover, we detect an increasing concentration of votes on these kinds of players over time, suggesting a clear and growing hierarchy in the competition for soccer celebrity. Further analyses of support for the world’s two best players in 2016 (Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo) show that, if properly adapted, political science concepts like partisanship have conceptual and empirical leverage in ostensibly non-political contests.

Those present thrust them- selves in the middle of the action: the drenched players, the German President and the Chancellor. But what’s truly unique about this image, which captures this moment forever, is not apparent upon first glance. Someone is sitting alone on the bench, untying his shoes: Toni Kroos. It’s an image that appears to be in character for Kroos’ unique brand of modesty, which for the longest time gave him the reputation of someone who failed to stand out enough. Today, he plays for the world’s biggest club and has won almost all there is to win. He is the most successful German footballer of all time and, if you go by Instagram and his 23 million followers, he has more fans than all other Germans. -
