Major League Baseball is making its was back to the public and 39-year old singer, Kelly Rowland, is helping us celebrate in a fun way.
Rowland posted a video this week of herself singing “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” for a new Bud Light campaign.
Rowland showed off her beautiful vocals in her version of the song alongside her husband, Tim Weatherspoon.
“Take me out to the ball game, take me out to the couch,” she sang. “Chill with my hubby and just kick back, then watch them playbacks with Charles and Shaq,” she continued, shouting out sports icons Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’Neal. “Cause it’s root, toot, toot for the home team — or away, because we don’t really care! ‘Cause the sports are finally back, ’cause there’s Bud Light there,” she ended.
The #TakeMeOut challenge has quickly gained traction as many sports fans eagerly wait for Americas pastime to make its return. Fans post videos of themselves doing their own version of the song.
“Sports are back, and we’re excited to formally welcome fans back from a long hiatus. Bud Light is always aiming to connect to authentic fan celebration moments and while these moments will look a little different, it’s our job to ensure that fans can be fans — even at home,” said Andy Goeler, Bud Light’s Vice President of Marketing, in a press release.
