Flo Milli starred in a Beats by Dre commercial in November in support of their Flex That holiday campaign, but she found herself a trending Twitter topic on Monday (January 4) when fans made the ad go viral.
Many were stunned to see Milli dancing to her 2020 Snoop Dogg-interpolating “May I” single in front of a confederate statue in Alabama, while others couldn’t grasp how the headphone giant green-lit the commercial in the first place.
As public relations director Ahmad Davis wrote tweeted, “I just want to know how many people sat at a table and decided that Flo Milli x Beats By Dre commercial was a good idea.”
Another user added, “Listen I love Flo Milli, but they set her up with this one. Why tf would she randomly break out dancing in front of a confederate statue and what does ‘flex that clap back’ mean?”
