Britney, Beyonce and Pink Will Rock You

[Brian]

ie. ruin a classic song.

We told you earlier in the week that Britney Spears, Pink, Beyonce and Enrique Iglesias got together in Rome recently to shoot a Gladiator style commercial for Pepsi. Enrique plays an evil emperor while the girls battle it out in the ring. What we didn't know is that the three divas recorded a version of Queen's "We Will Rock You" for the ad. The remaining members of Queen even backed up the ladies in the studio. The commercial will debut globally next month.

"I've never been in a commercial before so just that in itself was pretty exciting to me," said Pink. "I always thought I would never take a can and sip it and go 'aaah' but I'm doing it now so it's pretty funny."

A boyband in the UK already ruined it, couldn't get much worse

*sigh*

I was hoping they were going to "rock us" by announcing that triple-threat Playboy shoot

It was covered back in '90 or '91 for the movie Gladiator.....the Cuba Gooding Jr. boxing one. That one wasn't so bad.

So I heard this didn't even air in America during the superbowl. Did any of our international dudes see it?

[crappertay]

Nope. Didn't run. Won't do till it's been in the US a bit I would think.

E.g. They ran the Justin T. McDonalds advert only ONCE here (and that was weeks after the US hype about it) thank god!

Probably saving it for the oscars, Oscars usually get new big budget commercials too.

Aired today on british TV. It's poor. Really really poor.
