13 years ago today, Pepsi’s Super Bowl commercial starring Beyoncé, BritneySpears, Pink & Enrique Iglesias was premiered. #PepsiGladiators
Damn these were simpler times
so lemme break this down
-lord caesar iglesias, who does not sing in this musical commercial, has captured britney spears, pink, and beyonce to battle it out gladiator style
-our trio decides instead of fighting, they will instead rock so hard that the audience forgets about their battle to the death
-their musical prowess is so damn powerful they rock the foundation of the earth and overthrow caesar iglesias along with his stash of ancient roman pepsi
-beyonce, britney spears, and pink drink pepsi while the audience cheers
-enrique iglesias is eaten by a lionBritney, Beyonce, and Pink are the only girls from that era that kept their careers. This wasn’t a commercial, this was an omen.

I reblog this every time I see it, because it’s one of life’s hardest lessons.
My favorite aesthetic. I hope it never ends.
I was looking at this again and thinking about how much I love that while each of these images evokes royalty, each is a very different type. The each give me a different impression:
Beyoncé
– The Empress – At the height of her power, her throne is unassailable, though many try. Strength in every step, her court always in attendance. You will never see the strike coming.
Rihanna – The Child Queen – She crowns herself, trembling but determined, still mourning the things she has lost but refusing to be cowed. No one will claim her suffering but herself.
Nicki – The Anointed Queen – She rules by divine right, lit with a power that is as much spiritual as earthly. Her subjects are her children and she will raise them up, inspiring them with their own worth.
Janelle – The Warrior Queen – She leads a band of poet-warriors, a queendom both young and aggressive, but full of hope for a future that she will fight for, unafraid.
Beyoncé – The Empress: Capricorn, Virgo, Leo
Rihanna – The Child Queen: Scorpio, Pisces, Taurus
Nicki – The Anointed Queen: Cancer, Sagittarius, Libra
Janelle – The Warrior Queen: Gemini, Aquarius, Aries
The Anointed Queen for me. 😌
Child Queen.
