Which model appeared in the famous 1992 Pepsi commercial wearing a white crop top and denim shorts?

The story behind the answer

Cindy Crawford appeared in Pepsi’s famous 1992 commercial wearing a white crop top and denim shorts.

The advertisement showed Crawford arriving at a rural roadside from a red Lamborghini and buying a Pepsi from a vending machine. Its simple visual style, memorable styling, and star presence made it one of the most recognizable celebrity commercials of the 1990s.

The campaign is sometimes confused with later Pepsi advertisements or with Crawford’s many fashion and beauty campaigns. The original commercial is specifically associated with the 1992 Super Bowl broadcast and helped connect a high-fashion model with mainstream popular culture.

Crawford had already become a leading editorial and runway model by this point. Her broad commercial appeal helped define the era’s shift from models known mainly within fashion to models recognized by a global mass audience.
