Rapper-Inspired Easter Ads

Nova Starr Turns Up the Volume in MGA’s Shoppable Easter Campaign

Nova Starr is rewriting the Easter wish list in MGA Entertainment’s latest campaign, and it’s all rhythm, rhyme, and real talk. The pint-sized rap prodigy stars in 'MGA Presents: EGG$$$,' a high-energy music video that flips tradition on its head.

Created by Virtue Worldwide and directed by Daniel Iglesias Jr., the colorful, attitude-packed spot is equal parts rap anthem and shoppable toy guide. Nova Starr leads the charge with backup dancers, a pink sports car, and a fresh beat, spotlighting must-have items like 'L.O.L. Surprise!,' 'Moj Moj,' and 'Miniverse' -- all under $10.

Designed to resonate with the next generation of trendsetters, the campaign offers a bold, kid-first perspective that blends entertainment with effortless shopping. It’s MGA’s latest innovation in holiday gifting, empowering kids to voice what they really want.
