A first: Drag Queens in a Super Bowl commercial

The most watched sports event in the United States will take place upcoming Sunday: The Super Bowl. Every year, the American football final attracts over 100 million viewers. Unsurprisingly, broadcasting an ad during the commercial breaks is highly sought after and this year will feature the very first Super Bowl ad starring drag queens!

Kim Chi (RuPaul season 8) and Miz Cracker (season 10) will star in the commercial. The two hilarious drag queens are to appear in an ad for the company Sabra Hummus. While the full clip is still some days away, you can already watch the entertaining teaser below:

Many estimate that there is a considerable group among Super Bowl viewers that may have never been in contact with drag (or LGBT+ people in general). Because of this, the commercial including the two Drag Race stars can be considered as more significant than one might initially think.

Like every year, much anticipation is also being built up for the infamous Super Bowl Halftime Show during the sports event. Pop icons Jennifer Lopez and Shakira will take the stage, following the footsteps of Madonna, Lady Gaga, Beyoncé and Katy Perry.
