I wonder did PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi approve of this ad and didn’t realize how polarizing that ad turned out to be.
I think that's highly likely.
This would have been a very expensive ad to produce. I'm sure Kendall Jenner got a lot of money for her role in it.
One thing though: the videography in the ad is absolutely beautiful. I wonder who produced it, and what kind of equipment they used.
