- Pepsi has pulled its controversial new ad featuring Kendall Jenner as a protest peacemaker after social media opened up a can of backlash aimed at the soda giant. In a statement to The Associated Press Wednesday, the company said: "Pepsi was trying to project a global message of unity, peace and understanding. Clearly we missed the mark, and we apologize." The company also apologized to Jenner, saying: "We also apologize for putting Kendall Jenner in this position." #InsideEdition
Why should kendall regret the commercial? She got paid for a commercial, this is her job. Theres nothing wrong about it.
Asf69 Because this commercial makes her look shallow & stupid while trying so hard to look like a normal person, perhaps?
Barb Redgreen how?
can someone please explain me why is the commercial bad?? i dont understand
Pablo Erhard Pepsi put itself on the pedestal as the entity who brings peace to the world with a can, and a stupid model who abandons her job and miraculously wears brandnew clothes within seconds
Its called marketing. Pepsi tried to pander and exploit popular social problems. This commercial tried to pander to the angry trump protesters, trumps muslim ban, and the division between protesters and cops pandering to the blue lives matter group.
BLM thinks this was taking their BLM protest but i didnt really see any pandering to black people aside from some black people dancing.
Pablo Erhard because giving Pepsi to a cop solves a blm protest is stupid lmao
its not a black lives matter protest. it was a anti trump protest in the commercial but blm is anti cops so a protestor trying to make peace with a cop is anti blm. the whole commercial has nothing to do with black lives matter.
Pablo Erhard I was hoping you could tell me 😯
Once again..Has a Coke and a Smile ☺
Jose Garza 😂😂😂
I could of handed that cop a soda for millions of dollars!!!
Tired of ALL the Kardashians/Jenners!
Music Is Life shut up. The video was mainly about the Pepsi controversy. Shut up!
why???
This has to be a new record. A company saying that they stand behind their ad and then apologizing and removing the ad in less than 24 hours.
It just looks like a bunch of hippies and one of them gave a cop a Pepsi
And protesting
Martin Luther Kings daughters tweet is actually legendary omg
I honestly don't understand the msg of the commercial. Why would a celebrity strutting out in full glamour give a pepsi to a cop in the middle of a protest?
where is she now when we need her??
Can someone tell me why this is bad? Im confused.
Coca-Cola should have done this commercial
This commercial has no sense
honestly....its a commercial. People need to stop getting all worked up about nothing
Shane 00651 plus it's about soda not racial discrimination of people 😂😂😂people getting butt hurt from it baby's crying all online
Shane 00651 agreed
k3 dogg00651 If the police had killed your mother and you had been protesting against police brutality, and then Pepsi comes out and tries to turn the situation into a profit or tries to look cool by portraying the situation with little respect, how would it make you feel?
Only bacon can do that
Now, Season 3 of The Boys potraying A-Train as her, giving the soda to the cop
Why is Kendall getting all the hate? She wasn't the one who invented the commercial, she just starred in it.
When the hell did everyone get so freaking sensitive! Like seriously, it's just a commercial, yeah they could've done a better job, but it's still a commercial!
Jeez people were already mad enough at a restraunt when they say they have Pepsi and not coke and now what's gonna happen
bahahahahaha
sincerely Coke
I didn’t even notice she was ending a protest lol
1:17 I was going to write that...
This is 3 years ago but last time I saw was 3 days ago...?
Bet inside edition won't respond
Should have given the cop a coke...
this is why aliens don't come here and say hello
Yeah cover you're face, that will stop them from taking pictures. it's not like we don't know what you look like. I'll never understand
What really bothers me is that she has nowhere close to the gluteus fortitude to be able to stop a confrontation. I mean is she facing the cops or the crowd?
How about she go hand out water, blankets and checks for the folks in Texas. Texas lives matter...too!
I don't understand this commercial...
The world is in shambles.
"Pepsi was trying to SELL SELL SELL"
i don't see anything wrong with this commercial. people need to lighten up
I wouldn't pull out if I was with Kendall...
What about the Coke commercials with the polar bears? Do they think they can solve such a complex issue such as Global Warming by simply placating all the bears as their natural habitat melts all around them? How insensitive...
Personally, it seems like a decent commercial and I don't like Pepsi and not sure why Kendall Jenner would be someone who Pepsi would hire.
coke was way better anyways
I didn't even know that Kendall Jenner was in the damn thing.
That's rude... they try to do one good thing and everyone is rude
Shout out to martin luther king daughter 😂
Well someone needs to be offended...
Why is this such a big deal?
I'm so confused
I would give out Big baller brand shirts and stop fights -LaVar Ball
lmao i saw that tweet plus wtf its just a damn commerical
I thought this was an SNl skit, you telling me this was real 😳
DAMN
HEY HEY GUYS I HAVE A PEPSI SO CHILL xD!
it's always SOMETHING geez ppl calm down.
y is this bad wtf
This is refreshing to watch after Coca Cola's "be less white" training video.
Pepsi probably laughed at everyone being so mad. They only apologized over nothing so there reputation doesn't go down
Damn, she looked good in dem jeans
pepsi know wtf they were doing
What's so bad off it I really don't get it
I bet if that was a black girl instead of a white one everyone would have shrugged it off as a
passible commercial so much for people getting the meaning 😬😬😬
omg its just an ad
I've got a case of Pepsi at home. Imagine what I could do with that? I'm gonna send it to Syria to end the war and misery that goes on there! Yay!
ppls thought process is so used to seeing media blast racism all over TV that it's becoming the norm for us to pull something negative out of a positive view. This commercial to me is saying " we all need to come together " but obviously if you feel Ill will then your head is f'Ed up from this cold world
Mrs. Adriann just hope the day comes back around to were we find humor rather then waste time and complain
I actually like the music they played for the commercial
Wait, what year did Martin Luther King die again?
Well why don't I go to North Korea and give Kim Jong un a Pepsi that should end the conflicts with us because apparently that's Pepsi's logic
This commercial isn’t even bad
*super ultra mega colossal giant behemoth large gargantuan facepalm*
bernice went off
Why was this so bad?
Don't pull that trigger on her now. It's 'YOU' who voted FIRST.
I don't think the add was bad
Is not her fault !!BUT!!Pepsi the next time find sombody else to do your "amazing" ideas!!!
why the duck should Pepsi apologize or kaylee jenner regret anything?
The reason why I only drink Cola! 😝
Just kidding.
Stop taking everything so seriously. Realy, I mean it.
I applaud those who were offended by this commercial. God bless them all. No doubt God is on their side.
What was even more sickening was the fact that this aired on the 49th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King's murder.
HAHA i can bet that most of the controversy came from pewdiepies video!
The protest in the commercial could have been about anything....why the assumption it was about BLM???
I wish people could stop being so sensitive! It was a cool commercial.
Wow
This is why coke is better.
Hahaha. The Left.
i really dont understand why people would be upset about this commercial....i dont see nothing wrong with it.
they probably took it offensive because KYLIE JENNER was in this commercial.
uncle drew is better
oh my god, im officially signing out. Im 33 years old and can only say shts going backwards at a rapid rate... everybody just needs to get over themselves...faaarrrrrc
pepsi knew exactly what they were doing. it's called "there's no such thing as bad publicity"
Need a case of pepsi. I'm black. Thanks kim k crew for helping me feel more safe. Maybe this may help Muslims as well in America?
damn tht day, when the head of windsor security forces (all seeing eye :)) set the twins up...
Who wants to argue with me😂😊
Taylor Thomas I'll argue with you over nothing. You're wrong!
Otpez I'm just bored💀
In the commercal
*gives riot police or cop pepsi everything is good yay*
In real life
*Gose up to riot police or cop gives pepsi*
*gets pepper sprayed and gets shot and arrested*
Omg I'm sooo done with the Kardashian\Jenners! Go away! Your 15 minutes of fame is over! Lord, they make me sick to my stomach sometimes.
everyone takes everything so far big f****** deal. #LovePepsi
like like Pepsi more..the kkk needs to endorse them.
There’s nothing wrong with the commercial
I feel like the mass of Americans didn't like Kendall last name"k"..she is a beautiful model but it's she a "k".. and it's not fair to her. And that's why the ad busted
I dont like the kardasians but i think the pepsi was supposed to be symbolic, not literal
did they take the dead babies out of there ingredient
Hi
i swear everyone gets triggered about literally everything.
yeah can't take Kendall Jenner serious when she's the opposite of the struggle .
she was right to cover her face in shame lol all this girl knows is privilege.
dis tasteful afuc
Come on.....seriously. Its a commercial n i seen no where , kendall commenting or belittling BLM..Comes a time u stop being a victim ...sorry, but
Burnaboyy912 Wow cause you sound like a real grown up. How ironic.
Lol Pepsi thinks black lives matter is a serious issue
