Supermodel Naomi Campell is a black magic woman in the new [SoBe Life Water commercial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-leaf-marthas-little-helper).

After the success of the [Superbowl 2008 ad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffee-mate-big-game), in which she danced alongside lizards to Michael Jackson's Thriller, Naomi is dancing to a different tune in the follow up.

Set on an exotic beach, Naomi dons a custom silver swimsuit and [Christian Louboutin shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/serpenti-line) while she dances to the rhythm of *Black Magic Woman* being played by a bunch of funky lizards. One of the lucky lizards even gets to plant a wet one on Naomi's delicious lips.

After watching the commercial above, make sure to catch the first ad below:
