Truly Hard Seltzer is rolling out its “No One is Just One Flavor” campaign with global pop star Dua Lipa. Created by Goodby Silverstein & Partners, the campaign celebrates the unique flavors of Truly and the unique sides to each one of us,
Directed by David LaChapelle via production house Superprime, this commercial starring Dua Lipa is set to debut on Saturday Night Live on May 22. Set to her platinum hit “Physical,” the spot shows Dua Lipa as more than a pop star. She’s bilingual, a dog mom, and a yoga enthusiast, for example.
“In this rather polarized day and age, Truly has opted to openly celebrate the many sides of all of us. It’s a big, open-armed gesture of acceptance that is really needed right now,” said Jeff Goodby, co-chairman and partner of Goodby Silverstein & Partners.
The brand’s partnership with Dua Lipa stretches far beyond her appearance in the TV spot. She’ll be featured in social, digital, and out-of-home, as well as point-of-sale, where Truly drinkers will have a chance to win more than $1 million in concert prizes, including VIP experiences to meet the pop star and attend a performance this fall. The campaign will also include “Truly Inspired,” a 2021 summer content and livestream concert series produced by Live Nation featuring artists hand-picked by Dua Lipa.

The Ad Council, partnering with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF) and AdoptUSKids, launched a public service campaign, created pro bono by Edelman, which aims to inspire prospective parents to consider adopting a teen from foster care.
This centerpiece PSA titled “The Rewards”--directed by The Hudson Dusters (Michael Kuhn and Niles Roth) via Greenpoint Pictures--spotlights real adoptive families who have personally experienced the mutual benefits of adoption. This longer form PSA (and cutdown versions) begins with a touching display of openness and vulnerability as adoptive parents reflect on their adoption journeys and their initial questions and hesitations about adopting a teen. Then, in a deeply emotional turn, the adoptive parents witness their children recounting the profound rewards of adoption in their lives. The teens speak of the love they share with their parents and how the decision to become a family is reciprocal. The campaign directs viewers to the AdoptUSKids website to learn more about adopting a teen from foster care.
