Pepsi has launched the brand’s first TV ad for its global campaign, “Live for Now.” The ad, “Now in the Moment,” inspires Pepsi fans to live each moment to the fullest through a breadth of global, pop-culture platforms.
“Now in the Moment,” launched 5/7 with primetime airings on ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, and The CW. The spot features a cameo appearance from pop artist Nicki Minaj and features a new remix of her hit single “Moment 4 Life.” The spot captures all the excitement in a single moment frozen in time which is brought to life by the simultaneous crack of Pepsi cans.

These partnerships will include retail promotions, special edition Pepsi cans, and epic live events.
