Naturally Melanie is beyond excited, so it's no big surprise that she and Pepsi have just released a teaser video, giving fans a behind the scenes look at the epic commercial.
In the YouTube visuals, Melanie is dressed in a medieval costume for what appears to be a palace-themed advertisement. Joining Melanie in the commercial is none other than Sir Elton John. Random ... but awesome!
"She's got the personality [fitting] of a great live artist," Elton says of his co-star. "She oozes personality ... you can see it just by talking to her. She's cheeky ... she's fun."
Being the savvy lady that she is, Melanie planned on taking full advantage of her time with musical icon John. "I will ask for some tips as to how in the world he sold that many albums," Melanie spills in the video.
"Not every day people are able to do the things that I'm doing now," a reflective Mel says. "So I feel really fortunate and blessed to follow in the footsteps of big stars. The Super Bowl is viewed everywhere. To have that is really, really big. Somebody pinch me!"
UPDATE (Feb. 3): Melanie's full Pepsi commercial has hit the web! Watch her sing Aretha Franklin's 'Respect' in front of the ruthless "King" Elton below!
