The Best Star-Studded Super Bowl 2021 Commercials: Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, Michael B. Jordan and More - Us Weekly

Don’t look away! As always, celebrities provided plenty of entertainment for the breaks in Super Bowl LV, where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took on the Kansas City Chiefs at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, on Sunday, February 7.

This year, stars including Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, Michael B. Jordan, Mike Myers and Dana Carvey, Dolly Parton, John Travolta, Amy Schumer and Serena Williams filmed eye-catching commercials to keep the party going whenever the action stops on the field.

The cost for a 30-second spot to air during the 2021 NFL championship game was reportedly $5.5 million, approximately the same amount as last year when the Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers 31-20 with nearly 100 people watching.

However, this year, several brands opted not to air ads amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Budweiser, whose commercials have become a Super Bowl staple over the years thanks to the iconic Clydesdales, announced that it would donate its airtime to public service announcements about vaccine education and awareness. (The beer company did, however, digitally release an ad titled “Bigger Picture” to celebrate first responders.) Pepsi, which sponsors the halftime show, also decided not to air commercials promoting its sodas, though its snack foods were featured during the game.

Advertising, of course, was not the only source of entertainment during Super Bowl LV. Before kickoff, H.E.R. performed “America the Beautiful,” and Eric Church and Jazmine Sullivan sang “The Star-Spangled Banner.” In addition, Amanda Gorman, who received international acclaim for speaking at President Joe Biden’s inauguration in January, recited an original poem.

The halftime show, meanwhile, was headlined by The Weeknd. The “Blinding Lights” singer confirmed during a press conference ahead of the game that he would have “no special guests” during his performance. He also revealed that he contributed $7 million of his own money to make the production extra memorable. Much of his set took place in the stands rather than on the field per usual.

“Due to the COVID and for the safety of the players and the workers, we kind of built the stage within the stadium,” The Weeknd (real name Abel Tesfaye) teased. “We’re also using the field as well, but we wanted to kind of do something that we’ve never done before.”
