00:23Are you?
00:24The Bud Light Genie?
00:25Yeah.
00:25So we get wishes? It's my thing.
00:28Gimme.
00:2880s metal hair.
00:29Yes.
00:30And it appears that the Bud Light Genie can grant an unlimited number of wishes.
00:34Invisible?
00:34Predictable.
00:35Giant bicep.
00:36Big one.
00:37The spot also includes cameos from Post Malone and NFL legend Peyton Manning.
00:41I wish Peyton Manning was my best friend.
00:44How you doing?
00:45Hey.
00:46Oh, Post Malone.
00:48Hey.
00:49As well as UFC chief Dana White.

00:55He's going to need another bicep.
00:56House party.
00:57Definitely.
00:58Let's go.
00:58I wish I was T-Rex.

01:01Last year, the brand's Super Bowl spot, starring Miles and Kelly Teller, took a more sophisticated
01:05approach.
01:06This year, Bud Light wanted to lean into what made its previous Super Bowl ads classics of
01:10the genre.
01:11The VP of Marketing for Bud Light, Todd Allen, said in an interview,
01:14You know, we've been doing Super Bowl ads since 1983.
01:17Some of the most iconic ads have leaned into humor, so we're bringing that lightheartedness
01:21a bit back as well, more to the forefront.
01:23As for the celebrities featured in the spot, Allen said,
01:26We wanted to call on those longstanding friends of the brand to join us for the ride, and they're
01:30all aligned to the passion points and platforms that our fans know and love from Bud Light and
01:35expect from us.
