Pepsi is paying homage to the King of Pop one more time.
The brand is working with Michael Jackson's estate to create a limited-edition package featuring the singer, according to an executive close to the company. The package coincides with the 25th Anniversary of the Bad album, which was released on Aug. 31, 1987.
The package will be a 16 oz. can available in convenience stores and grocery stores around Memorial Day, according to Beverage Digest. The can, said to have a blue background with an image of Mr. Jackson dancing, is expected to cost 99 cents. Pepsi declined to comment.
Pepsi sponsored the 1988 Bad World Tour. The tour spanned 16 months, with 123 concerts in 15 countries attended by 4.4 million fans. It was the largest-grossing tour in history and the one with the largest audience.
The brand's relationship with Mr. Jackson dates to 1984 and the "New Generation" campaign. The singer's hair caught fire during a commercial shoot that was part of that campaign. Mr. Jackson appeared in a number of ads for the brand over the years, performing versions of "Billie Jean" and "Bad," among other songs.
Pepsi has a long association with music but has been emphasizing it in the past year. It poured $60 million into a sponsorship of X Factor, Simon Cowell's music competition, and featured the show's winner, Melanie Amaro, in a Super Bowl spot. The tagline for the ad, created by TBWA/Chiat/Day was "Where there's Pepsi, there's music."
Earlier this week, Pepsi confirmed to Ad Age its relationship with singer Nicki Minaj, who is said to be appearing in a new global campaign for the brand.

I don't drink Pepsi or Coke type drinks, but I'd buy one with MJ for a keepsake.

Sorry to go a little off topic but...

Listen at 22:40 for the little boy (who was the old man magically become young from playing Kick the Can)  say,  “…Last one in to the fort (forest?) is a rotton apple…Ally ally apple free…”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7kee6dxaFM&feature=player_embedded

It seems to be the same voice as MJ's song The Lost Children.  Listen at 3:29, “Last one in to the fort (forest?) is a rotton apple…”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UON2Jv4N_6A
If this is the same source, it would indicate that the 'Lost children' MJ is referring to, are old people who have not found their way back to becoming young again. Beautiful!!

“Look at all the lovely flowers…It’s getting dark, we better go home now,”  must be from another story. Does anyone know where it comes from? It seems like Hansel and Gretel but...

With regards to your post, let me say that soda is not typically the first consumable substance you think of when dropping pounds is topic of discussion. However, PepsiCo would want to change the game for Japanese consumers with its newest release, Pepsi Special. The business claims that this brand new fat-blocking Pepsi drink contains dextrin, a non-digestible starch found in some baked solutions that will apparently raise the consumer's metabolism and actually burn fat.
