Since 2012, the space below the number has been occupied by UNICEF, and later by UNHCR since the summer of 2022. Far from generating revenue, these partnerships actually saw the club pay €400,000 per season to the UN agency. However, with the UNHCR contract expiring this summer, the club has decided to monetise this asset for the first time.

Despite flight to fame, celeb talent isn't as sure a bet as CMOs think

Nearly two-thirds (63%) of Super Bowl ads featured one or more celebrity talents this year, according to data from TV measurement company iSpot. Back in 2011, only around a quarter of ads included an A-lister, but a reliance on Hollywood names has been typical of Big Game ads since the start of this decade. It's part of a broader pattern. The "built-in affinity" a top name can bring means it's "an easy place to go," said Mike Hayward, chief creative officer at agency Copacino Fujikado.

Celebrity has long been a staple of B2C advertising, but in B2B, it's historically been treated as nothing more than a huge flex. Too often, an A-list name signals budget more than insight. When it's misaligned, the backlash can outweigh the buzz. Look no further than the ire Salesforce received in 2023 for paying Matthew McConaughey millions while simultaneously laying off thousands of employees.

With a self aware wink, the commercial suggests that while the internet has been busy theorizing, Jenner has been doing something more strategic and likely Kris Jenner approved, betting on it.
