Is The Sight Of A Justin Timberlake Ball Shot Going To Make America Embrace Legal Downloading?
Pepsi is sure hoping so, based on the Pepsi/Amazon MP3 ad above, which shows Justin Timberlake being driven out of his restaurant and through the streets of New York and its suburbs… thanks to the power of Pepsi’s points program that will allow people who drink lots of carbonated sugar water to get “free” MP3s by Justin and other music stars. There’s also an odd Andy Samberg cameo, the ball shot (it involves a mailbox), and a big honking ad for Justin’s restaurant, because, you know, that’s the only place where he hangs out when he’s in town. Ugh, this isn’t even as good as yesterday’s ultra-dopey Haddaway-themed ad, which is why I’m wondering just how much time will elapse between the Super Bowl’s final second and Pepsi kicking its ad agency to the curb.
