<br /> May. 03. <br /><br /><br />[size=18pt]Michael Jackson and Nicki Minaj Star in New Pepsi Ads[/size]<br /><br /><br />Pepsi has struck a deal with Michael Jackson’s estate to use him in a new global ad campaign, Live For Now.<br /> <br />AP reports that the rollout will vary by country, but will include a TV ad, special-edition cans featuring Jackson’s image, and chances to win leather jackets inspired by his style. Jackson first teamed up with Pepsi in 1983 and in 1984 was the famous incident where Jackson’s hair caught on fire while filming a Pepsi commercial at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Jackson suffered severe burns and Pepsi gave Jackson $1.5 million as a result.<br /> <br />Jackson’s campaign will first be seen in the United States and China within the next few weeks, which coincides with the 25th anniversary of his album Bad. The campaign will spread to two dozen countries by fall.<br /> <br />On Monday Pepsi is launching an ad on television featuring Nicki Minaj. The advertisement features a remixed version of her song “Moment 4 Life.” In her first official photo released for the campaign, we see this singer/rapper all dressed in pink (hair included) holding onto a can of Pepsi. The commercial is titled “[size=14pt]Now [/size] [size=14pt]in the Moment[/size]” and was filmed in Argentina earlier this year.<br /><br />original source: Michael Jackson and Nicki Minaj Star in New Pepsi Ads | The<br /><br />My add: Now in the moment?? sounds very familiar!! it looks like somebody is really watching...<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

    Maybe this whole Pepsi thing is a lead up to the BAM.  Whether Pepsi is aware of that or not, I'm not sure.

    <br />it can be very well true, Andrea :) it definitely looks like something is going to happen..That "now in the moment" saying is so obvious, Front mentioned "the momment of now", that was probably a hint for that campaign..

    I thought the same emulik, I actually said something quite similar about the mom(m)ent of now in the article that Souza posted, lol.  We (us hoaxers) are the only ones in the world who would make that connection.  People who are either 'deaders' or simply oblivious will be like, "Ya, awesome!" or "That makes me maaaad!"

    Lol,i was thinking the same thing.Front has some splaning to do.It would have been cooler to see Michael team up with Whitney.Nicki is just so evil.Oh well who am i too judge.

    This article calls it the "Live for now" campaign. No mention of Nicki Minaj.  I don't care for her. <br /><br />Pepsi Reuniting With Michael Jackson for New Campaign - Yahoo! Movies Canada

    You know you are over-hoaxed when the first thing you look for on a turtle's shell are the words, "I'm Alive".<br /><br /> :over-react-smiley:<br /><br /> :icon_lol: x 7 <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
