Many will remember that Motley Crue made a Super Bowl appearance last year when they showed up in a commercial for KIA.
Now, it looks like Australian rockers AC/DC may be following in the Crue’s footsteps, as several sources have speculated that the band will make a car commercial cameo of their own during this year’s game.
Automobile Mag reports that Hyundai has already leaked three of the five ads that they have purchased for the coveted Sunday night spot; the company’s CEO has hinted that a “legendary alternative rock band” with make an appearance in one of the remaining two ads, and that their music will be featured.
While Automobile Mag predicts that the band in question is The Flaming Lips, Bravewords thinks that it could be AC/DC; a choice that would most likely resonate better with the viewing audience.
And having spent nearly $9.5 million for just their airtime fees, Hyundai definitely want to bring as much bang for their buck as possible and that’s one thing that AC/DC’s known best for.
Whichever band Hyundai has chosen, you can find us on Sunday night, nachos in hand and eyes glued to the TV to find out!
