Michelob Ultra Maluma Spot Timed For Album Launch, 'Tonight Show' Appearance


Michelob Ultra has extended its advertising deal with Latin music star Maluma to a new TV ad timed to coincide with his latest album release. 

The spot, made in both English (below) and Spanish, is part of the brand’s push to reach U.S. Hispanic consumers and other new audience segments. 

Featuring a song from the album, “Nuestro Ritmo (Our Rhythm),” the ad will debut on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” on May 14 — when Maluma will also appear on the show to promote the album. 

The spot was shot in Maluma’s hometown of Medellin, Colombia. 

In line with the low-calorie beer’s “Live Fit, Live Fun” brand message, it shows the performer drinking an Ultra with friends amid his active work and social life, including dancing.
