YouTube sensations Veejay Floresca, Martin Bautista, Lex Librea and Aleq Africa are out in a new video, but this time, it’s a TV commercial for fastfood chain KFC.
The four friends who garnered YouTube fame via their "We Love Maria Venus Raj video" are now the stars of KFC’s newest TV commercial. Fashion designer Martin Bautista posted a link to the video on his Twitter account and says that the commercial will be aired on September 17, Friday.
According to Bautista, they were approached by the advertising agency and were asked if they wanted to do the project. "I didn’t expect that this whole thing would reach to this point!" Bautista told SPOT.ph. "I feel lucky and blessed...Not everyone is given an opportunity like this. We’re not even celebrities."
Baustista shared that the ad agency came up with a set that looked exactly like the original video. "Complete with the bed, wall and the wardrobe. I got goosebumps when we walked into the set. It was surreal!"
