Asian Megastar Rain and top pop singer Christina Aguilera sings together and appears jointly in commercial. The two sings interlude song "Da Da Da" and appear together in Pepsi's CF which was aired on the 12th in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan with a football flim as background. Rain was selected by Pepsi to be their model in the Chinese speaking region last December. The commercial is generally as such: A football match is about to start in a football stadium filled with audiences. Suddenly, a voice sings "Da Da Da", so all audiences turn their attention to the large screen. Suddenly, Christina, followed by Rain, jumps out, and the two started singing "Da Da Da". The most interesting part of this commercial is that sitting among the audiences are French national footballer, Henri, Brazil national footballer, Ronaldinho, and other world-famous football stars. After "Da Da Da", Rain hands Christina a Pepsi. Christina opens the can, and the commercial ends. Although the two sing and appear in the commercial together, the recording and filming actually took place individually. On the 13th, Rain's agency, JYPE expressed that Rain and Christina had planned to meet and record the song together, followed by filming of the commercial. However, due to schedule constraints, the plan did not come through. Christina concluded her filming as early as February, while Rain finished his portion of filming and recording in Seoul last month. It is said that Christina saw the end product and was very satisfied. The commercial song "Da Da Da" which the Pepsi commercial was based on was written by female composer, Linda Perry. She also wrote one of Christina's hit song, "Beautiful". At the same time, Rain will kick off his 11 countries "Rain World Tour" Concert in Seoul on the 14th this December. The production house for Rain's concert tour, Star Emplaning announced that part of the concert proceeds will be donated to charity purposes, such as campaigns against illiteracy.
