Watch Janelle Monae channel Madonna in Super Bowl Pepsi ad
BY MELISSA RUGGIERI
If you don’t love Janelle Monae already – and really, how can you not? – you will find new reasons to admire Atlanta’s Queen of Wondaland in a new Pepsi ad for Super Bowl Sunday.
The 39-second spot finds Monae in her usual uniform of black tux boogieing through The Contours’ “Do You Love Me” before slipping through a door and re-appearing in prime ‘80s Madonna gear for some giddy dance moves to “Express Yourself.”
Monae's commercial joins previously released music-themed Super Bowl ads, including the adorable sheep singing Queen and some wicked David Lee Roth yelps.
