Ringo Starr Couldn't Be More Chill in His First Campaign for Skechers

Posted in: Uncategorized

“Rock out in comfort” is a headline that will horrify rock ‘n’ roll purists—but Ringo Starr doesn’t care. The Beatles drummer is relaxation personified in his first campaign for Skechers, as the brand continues its association with aging legends following the Pete Rose ad on the Super Bowl.

Check out the commercial and print work below.

“I love to be relaxed,” Ringo says in a statement. “I don’t know why people think because you’re a well-known pop star that we relax differently. We don’t—we hang out at home, we have dinner, go to the movies. I like to actually sit on a beach in the sun and listen to the waves. But you can’t do that every day, can you?”

Ringo released his 18th solo album, Postcards from Paradise, on March 31 and will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist this Saturday.

Ringo Starr Wishes He Was a Powerpuff Girl. No, Really, He Does

Posted in: Uncategorized

The Powerpuff Girls have been rebooted for a onetime special with a new animation style, and the first look anybody has gotten of the new design is this short where Ringo Starr dons a dress and sings, "I wish I was a Powerpuff Girl."

The song, written by director Dave Smith, is a delightful little ditty about shooting stars out of your eyes and wearing dresses while saving the world. Ringo's animated alter ego starts out on the drums, then dons a yellow dress and adorable pink hair ribbon to join the girls as they fly through the sky and bring peace and love to the city of Townsville. The whole thing is as trippy as Yellow Submarine and as cuddly as a puppy.

Ringo will also appear in the special, Dance Pantsed, airing Jan. 20, as Townsville's flamboyant mathematician, Fibonacci Sequens. Smart move, Cartoon Network. It's always a good idea to leverage your Starr power.
