Michael! Mariah! Britney! Pepsi's New Commercial Pays Homage To The Greats!

One our favorite parts of the X Factor last night had literally nothing to do with the show itself. It had to do with the airtime Pepsi bought to run their new commercial.

The cola’s new ad is a tribute to some of the greatest artists to ever endorse the drink. We’re talking Ray Charles, Mariah Carey, Kanye West, Michael Jackson and yes, Britney Spears. The first person to win The X Factor USA will join the ranks of these megastars as part of their prize includes a Pepsi commerical that will air during the Super Bowl.

Until we know who that is, let’s just enjoy what was. Check out the video (above) to relive some great musical moments!

BA, BA BA BA! BA BA BA BA! The joy of Pepsi … and Britney circa 1999.

P.S. – Where were the Spice Girls???? Generation Next?! C’MON!!! And remember the one with Pink and Beyonce! You guys left out some good ones!
