N
ike’s ‘Dream Crazier’ advertisements had been aired at the Oscars 2019 and it literally took the people with a storm.
The powerful message, along with such inspirational athletes starring in this has created a mind-boggling combo and has resulted in a whopping number of view on YouTube in less than 10 hours.
The ad is featured by the most popular Serena Williams and shows off the best of moves of all other female athletes who have made us proud including Simone Biles, Chloe Kim, Ibtihaj Muhammad, Caster Semenya, Becky Hammon and more.
The ad is directed by Kim Gehrig, who has also made a successful ad campaign of Gillette before.
The bewildering response upon Nike’s “Show them what crazy can do” advertisement can be seen all over twitter where Serena Williams has posted the video from her official Twitter handle.

In addition to it’s out of the world direction and script, it depicts our society in a gentle way and at the same time, it delivers an incredibly powerful message related to Gender Equality.
These athletes have been shown in the advertisement as role models to the women in society who have talent but are oppressed by Gender Discrimination. These role models have shown the world how strong a woman can be and Nike has supported the vision. The ad says:
“If we want to play against men, we’re nuts. And if we dream of equal opportunity, we’re delusional. When we stand for something, we’re unhinged. When we’re too good, there’s something wrong with us. And if we get angry, we’re hysterical, irrational, or just being crazy. “
People on social media are going crazy after watching the ad, and it is definitely a constructive campaign from Nike, as always expected from a leading sports brand of the world.
