Massive stars.

2nd Answer:

Yes, massive stars, but ones with another star like a red giant orbiting each other.

The to-be supernova 'sucks' material from the other star near it until its mass is large enough to make the star collapse and burst.

Generally O & maybe B stars will explode as a supernova. It all depends on the mass of the star.
