Ad of the Day: Pepsi

It's been a big year for Beyoncé. She sang (sort of) at President Obama's second inauguration, performed a colossal Super Bowl halftime show, starred in a 90-minute HBO "documentary" chronicling her fabulous existence, and is currently gearing up to release her fifth studio album. And it's only April.

Now, as the pop superstar continues on her path to total world domination by 2014, Pepsi is releasing a new spot from 180 LA commemorating Queen Bey's decade as the brand's fiercest spokeswoman.

In the minute-long video, featuring a preview of Beyoncé's upcoming single, titled "Grown Woman" (always subtle, that one), the singer goes into a dance studio to practice her moves. Upon popping open a cold can of Pepsi (and flashing some sick nail art in the process), Bey looks up to find a reflection of herself from her "Bootylicious" Destiny's Child days staring back—wearing a stretchy, one-shouldered, berry-colored ensemble that most Dancing With the Stars contestants would deem too tacky.

Other past Beyoncés begin appearing in the mirrors: short-shorted "Crazy in Love" Beyoncé, alter ego Sasha Fierce from the "Single Ladies" video, and a slew of others. Present-era Bey matches their boob shakes and hip thrusts move for move, proving that even at the practically geriatric age of 31, she's still got it.

The presence of multiple Beyoncés proves to be too much for this mortal world, and the mirrors shatter under the weight of the magnificence within. Having successfully vanquished her rivals through dance—for the only force strong enough to threaten Beyoncé is Beyoncé herself—Queen Bey takes a sip of her life-giving (non-diet!) Pepsi.

"Embrace your past, but live for now," she advises, and struts off to continue taking over the universe.
