Tom Brady’s celebrity fan club just got a little bigger. Comedian Leslie Jones announced her love of the Patriots quarterback Sunday night on Twitter, posting a clip from the New England hero’s recent Foot Locker commercial.

In the ad, released earlier this month for the shoe company’s “Week of Greatness,” Brady launches into a faux rant that alludes to Deflategate.

The Ghostbusters actress and SNL cast member followed up her first tweet with some more praise for Brady, calling him a “hottie” and saying he throws the ball “all sexy like.”

On Sunday, the Patriots beat the New York Jets on 22 to 17.
