Pop Star Sports Adverts

Nike: Music Runs Ellie Depicts the Athletic Side of the Singer

One of Nike's latest advertising campaigns enlists the help of a pop star in the Nike: Music Runs Ellie commercial. Considering the success that the Ellie Goulding (the U.K. singer) has experienced, it's no surprise that she's being featured in the clip.

The new Nike: Music Runs Ellie is an advert that features the pop singer discussing her love for running. The audience follows Ellie in various cities she runs in as she tours around the world. Of course, a whole lot of Nike gear is shown in the process to display what the company has got in their arsenal.

Nike normally enlists athletes to show off their more technical gear, so it's a little surprising to see Ellie Goulding in the clip, but I'm sure her fans avidly support the new advert.
