Ronda Rousey in new Pantene marketing campaign

December 7, 2016 by Jason Cruz 1 Comment

Ronda Rousey will be a part of a new marketing campaign with Procter & Gamble’s Pantene brand.  The campaign is a play on Pantene’s “Don’t Hate Me Because I’m Beautiful” campaign in the 1980s.

In the television ad, Rousey states, “Don’t Hate Me Because I’m Strong.”

Partnering w/ @Pantene to show how beautiful strong women can be. Don’t hate me BC I’m strong. #StrongIsBeautiful https://t.co/vgE4uRenCq pic.twitter.com/rs1EHwYXBA

Rousey will appear across TV, digital and print advertising as well as PR and social media platforms.

Payout Perspective:

The launch of the campaign comes just weeks before Rousey returns to the octagon on December 30th.  It’s another major mainstream marketing campaign for Rousey.  This spot seems to be perfect for Rousey since the take on the campaign is a turn on the old perceptions of women and a look at the more active emerging role of women.

@Josh_HokitUFC You’re gonna cry you were cancelled by the left for “free speech”. And then you’ll post 200 times a day on Twitter until fox and friends invites you on to “tell your story”. And after that you’ll run for congress and your campaign will be centered on white grievance.

This is

Real question. Was this announced or is there an intern somewhere that is taking note of ever fighter’s follow and unfollow?

Ian Garry unfollowed PFL fighter Alexei Pergande after a clip resurfaced of him taking down Garry in sparring:

"Ian Garry is lying about me... I'm not sure why he made up a lie [about me filming him without permission]."
