Bumble Confirms Ad Featuring Serena Williams May Air Through SuperBowl

Bumble verified that a brand new advertisement featuring its newest celebrity spouse Serena Williams will debut during very first half of the SuperBowl.

Per AdWeek, Bumble teased a fresh promotion with all the golf star, admitting which would coordinate with all the SuperBowl, although it wasn’t obvious when they were likely to air an offer while in the game, one of several most-watched yearly events inside U.S. (and something of the very high priced advertisement purchases). Bumble has now affirmed their own basic SuperBowl advertisement will function Serena Williams in addition to their brand new promotion “golf ball is actually Her legal.”

Bumble, a female-friendly dating software, is actually serious about their female-empowerment goal. Over the past few years, the brand has actually debuted choices that appeal particularly to females, including partnering with Moxy Hotels available BumbleSpot – proven areas where Bumble users can satisfy for dates, job marketing, or prospective new friendships – in an attempt to produce safe hookup rooms for ladies.

The advertising with Williams will function her surge to celebrity, “not just as a specialist playing tennis star but as operator, character product, girlfriend and mommy,” based on AdWeek. The spot is made by a mostly feminine staff and guided by A.V. Rockwell, an award-winning screenwriter and director whose work deals with issues on race and oppression.

The message for the offer is promote ladies to control their stories, some thing Bumble has-been excited about from first of the matchmaking app, offering females the energy to really make the very first action.

In an intro video clip for all the SuperBowl advertisement, that’ll air March 3^rd, Bumble provided a glimpse of what to expect.

“We’re located in a global and culture where individuals are just starting to see in different ways and needs to understand that the audience is in the same way powerful and just as smart and just as savvy and just because businesslike as any male in this world,” Williams claims while watching digital camera, which in turn pans to the lady offering a baseball in a vacant judge. “and then it’s time to arrive and tell our story how it needs to be advised.”

AdWeek noticed that the female-forward Bumble offer strategy is actually rare for a SuperBowl, in fact it is this type of a male-dominated room, and much more extremely unlikely that a mainly feminine team would make these types of a SuperBowl advertisement.

“There are a lot women who tend to be willing and excited [to be engaged for the ultra Bowl], and every lady involved [in Bumble’s place] had plenty love,” Bumble chief brand name officer Alexandra Williamson told AdWeek.

She proceeded to say: “People will see an alternative side to Serena when this ad goes live, and I would attribute that to an all-female team doing it.”
