PepsiCo Inc. is going on a reunion tour with The King of Pop.
The Purchase, N.Y.-based company says it struck a deal with Michael Jackson’s estate to use the late pop star’s image for its new global ad campaign. The rollout will vary by country, but will include a TV ad, special-edition cans bearing Jackson’s image and chances to win leather jackets inspired by the singer’s style.
The promotion is part of a broader marketing blitz by Pepsi, which is looking to take business back from The Coca-Cola Co.

I visited a regional school science fare the other day where a student was displaying the results of what various drinks do to teeth sitting in individual containers for a couple of weeks, each container covering a tooth with a different drink. Pepsi turned the tooth totally black.
Whoops. That should have read “science fair.”
Yes... when a middle-aged man sleeps with young boys some may tend to get that idea.
I won’t buy pepsi products. Period. And it has nothing to do with Michael Jackson...
You can't have it both ways.
............must................resist...............cheese...........
Pepsi backs Obama and every other Leftist cause. It ought to be boycotted...and besides, it’s awful.
Jackson admitted sleeping with boys.
Again reading the posts here, many of you have been brainwashed by the same media that states George Zimmerman is a murderer & Sarah Palin is a nut that even some conservatives took the line, hook and sinker. The media has viciously maligned Michael. Michael never laid a hand on any child nor would he harm them. What the media told us is that ONLY BOYS were sleeping with him. WRONG! There were also girls and Michael would sleep on the floor. The first settlement was due to Sony and the insurance as Michael was out of the country. The second accusation Michael fought it and was vindicated.

Now as for Pepsi, hmmm Michael hated Pepsi and loved Coke =)
I never liked Pepsi. This just proves that I have good taste.

I’d think anyone in that situation ought to be expected to be pelted with question marks.
Michael did some of his best work for Pepsi. I especially enjoyed the video where his hair caught on fire.
A year or so ago I read that Coke was the number one selling soft drink in the world. Number 2? Diet Coke, with Pepsi coming in third.
