Back to her roots! Cindy Crawford, 51, recreates THAT sexy Pepsi Super Bowl commercial 26 years later - but this time she features alongside her 18-year-old model son, Presley
- Cindy made her first appearance in a Pepsi ad during the 1992 Super Bowl
- The original featured Cindy wearing a tank top and jean shorts, driving a Lamborghini and then stopping at a gas station for a can of soda
- Supermodel Cindy also appeared in an ad for Diet Pepsi in 2002
- This new remake, part of the Pepsi Generation campaign, aims to honor the brand's 120-year history in pop culture by also featuring Michael Jackson
- It will be shown on February 4 during this year's Super Bowl in Minneapolis, Cindy's hometown
Pepsi hasn't had a brilliant track record when it comes to its recent commercials, sparking outrage the world over with a highly controversial ad spot starring Kendall Jenner in April 2017.
So it makes sense that the soda company should want to return back to its roots for its latest attempt by seeking inspiration from one of its most popular ever ads starring none other than supermodel Cindy Crawford.
Harking back to the brand's iconic 1992 Super Bowl ad featuring the 90s superstar, this year's commercial will see 51-year-old Cindy reprise her previous role.

Timeless: The original Pepsi commercial featured Crawford in a tank top and jean shorts, driving a Lamborghini and stopping at a gas station for a can of soda
Family affair: Cindy's 18-year-old model son, Presley Gerber will appear in the 2018 remake - although it is not known what role he is taking
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.'
However, this time there will be a couple of stark contrasts between the two ads - her 18-year-old son, Presley Walker Gerber has also been cast and deceased King of Pop, Michael Jackson will also be featured.
Crawford recently filmed the commercial, which will debut at Super Bowl 52 on February 4, and the 90s icon said she didn't hesitate to recreate the ad 26 years later, especially since she was able to work with her son.
'Just as a mother, we drove to work together that day and we shared the same trailer. And when he was doing his thing, I was just a proud mom watching from the sidelines, trying not to annoy him,' she said in a phone interview Wednesday.
The new Super Bowl ad, dubbed 'This Is The Pepsi,' is part of the company's 'Pepsi Generation' campaign honoring the brand's 120-year history in pop culture.
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 plans to attend the Super Bowl in Minneapolis, where her father lives.

Family business: Cindy's daughter, Kaia Jordan Gerber, 16, is also following in her mother's footsteps, appearing on the February cover of Vogue Paris
'I think probably that will be the highlight for me is just getting to see my dad,' she said.
'I took him to a Super Bowl before I had kids and it's not like he ever wanted to go to an awards show or something like that, but if I can take him to the Super Bowl, that's a pretty cool thing for me to be able to do with my dad.'
Crawford's modeling talents have not only extended to her son - her 16-year-old daughter, Kaia Jordan Gerber, graces the February cover of Vogue Paris.
And Cindy is more the willing to help her children navigate the world of modelling, not that she thinks they need her help.
'She's more ready for it. She's just so much more sophisticated and worldly than I was at that age,' she said of her daughter's blossoming career.
However, she is there to offer her son and daughter advice.
'It kind of happened for both of them and they listen to my advice when it comes to this. The one thing they can't say is, "Mom, you don't get it."'
