‘And even more so when it’s for a good cause.

The original featured Crawford in a tank top and jean shorts – made from her own jeans she brought to the set that day – driving a Lamborghini and stopping at a rural gas station to buy a can of soda.
Two young boys in a nearby field can be seen watching on in awe and amazement as the beauty guzzles the can in one go.
‘It was one of those moments in my career that when I walked down the street, people were like, “Pepsi!” Or I’d be at a bar and people would send me over a Pepsi,’ Crawford said, laughing. ‘And it’s funny because during Halloween a lot of women will dress up as me in that commercial. It’s like an easy Halloween costume.’
In the 2018 ad she was with her son Presley Walker Gerber who was a teen at the time.
Crawford also appeared in an an ad for Diet Pepsi in 2002, where she drove to the same gas station, this time dressed in a tight white blouse and jean shorts, driving a white Jeep.
Crawford’s modeling talents have not only extended to her son – her daughter, Kaia Jordan Gerber, is also a top model.
