Here come the boys: One Direction prove that they have made it in the US by starring in the latest Pepsi ad

Just two years ago they were like every other teenage boy in Britain but after skyrocketing to global superstardom in the US, the One Direction boys have landed a coveted role in the new Pepsi commercial.
The ad, which has featured the likes of David Beckham, Elton John and Britney Spears in the past, is known for starring only the most high profile of celebrities, proving that the boys have truly made it across the Atlantic.
Teaser clips have already been released but now the full advert, featuring the boyband and NFL star Drew Brees, has been posted online.

Most successful: One Direction try to prove they are more accomplished than the NFL star by showing a magazine with them on the cover

The ad, which plays on the band's phenomenal success and popularity with teen girls, shows the boys fighting over a can of Pepsi with the New Orleans Saints quarterback.
With Harry Styles clearly leading the boys, the band argue that they should have the can of fizzy drink because of their worldwide success and Platinum status while Drew argues that he should have it since he won the Superbowl.
The band argue back and forth with the NFL star over who is the most successful and deserving of the drink, before getting in a crowd of girls to support them.

The sportsman, who looks completely out of place next to the teenage boys, can be heard singing the hit song completely out of tune.
