I am the perfect target audience as I was at the time and still am a huge One Direction fan. The ad shows the band share a Pepsi with football player Drew Brees, branching together two very different demographics of people. I love the branching together of teenage girls and football fans into one commercial&#8211;it&#8217;s a rare occurrence. It makes me a one direction fan, want to drink a Pepsi with a Drew Brees fan\/ other football fans. Pepi has a habit of contracting celebrities for their commercials to show that celebrities drink our soda so you should too. I never want to drink Pepsi, but this ad makes me crave a cold Pepsi, so I guess Pepsi has accomplished their goal. Also, this ad has over 3 million views on YouTube, showing the power of including celebrities in ones advertisements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My favorite commercial is the 2012 One Direction commercial for Pepsi during the Super Bowl.
