AT&T is sharing a little love as we close out a trying 2020 and look forward to the New Year with hope.
The new creative features people from all walks of life coming together singing the 1969 hit “Put a Little Love in Your Heart,” including a few notable vocal cameos from AT&T’s well-loved Lily character, and none-other than LeBron James.
The heartfelt track serves as a much-needed anthem for unity and compassion as we all continue to be socially distant.
Titled “A Little Love,” the spot was created with creative agency partner BBDO LA and directed by The Corner Shop’s Peter Thwaites.

Johnnie Walker wraps up the year with an inspiring campaign that is a direct and bold response to those who would question the strength of women. Created by AlmapBBDO in São Paulo, Brazil, this anthem film--“Forte São Elas” (“Strong are the Women”) starring actress Alice Braga--references one of the most iconic productions in the brand’s history worldwide:”The Man Who Walked Around The World.”
Produced by Surreal Hotel Arts, directed by Lu Villaça, and featuring an original soundtrack by Cabaret Studio, “Forte São Elas” shows Braga walking as she describes how strength plays an essential role in the daily life of every woman. Whether facing stereotypes or countless other barriers, women are the masters of their own choices and stay true to their journeys.
“The campaign recognizes the emotional strength and resilience of every woman who faces and overcomes obstacles every day, and boldly challenges outdated stereotypes. And when they say that whisky is too strong for women, we will tell them: it’s the women who are strong,” said Andrea Rubim, head of marketing for Johnnie Walker.
