“I’m a Pepper, He’s a Pepper, She’s a Pepper, We’re a Pepper, Wouldn’t you like to be a Pepper, too?” Well, it turns out that big time rapping legend Dr. Dre wants in. He will be starring in the new Dr. Pepper Trust Me, I’m a Doctor campaign.
What’s in it for Dre? The rapper will be promoting his much anticipated third album Detox and his Beats by Dre headphones. The commercial will debut today and this is what we will hear from Dre:
“Scientific tests prove when you drink Dr. Pepper slow, the 23 flavors taste even better. For me, slow always produces a hit. Slower is better – trust me, I’m a doctor.”
No exact release date is being revealed on the Detox album but it is expected to hit store shelves later this year.
Did you watch the MTV awards last night? Dr. Dre’s close friend Eminem made his first appearance in recent years and it didn’t go over well. Check out the video here of Eminem leaving the awards show after he and Bruno got into an altercation.
Here’s a little fun fact for you: Dr. Pepper has been around since December 1, 1885.
