Beyoncé’s Verizon ad served as an excellent springboard for the rollout of her new album, “Act II,” which she plans to release in March of 2024. It was also a big hit among critics, who’ve placed it among the best Super Bowl commercials of 2024. Unsurprisingly, Beyoncé’s commercial got high marks from several mainstream publications — including NPR and CBS News, who cited COM STAR’s report that it was the buzziest Instagram post from Super Bowl Sunday. However, that’s just the start, as the commercial garnered commentary from just about every corner of the digital world. Proof of her impact!
Of course, Beyoncé’s Super Bowl ad also connected with her fans on X, formerly known as Twitter, who were totally into her carefree vibe. “BEYONCÉ ATE THIS COMMERCIAL TF UP & SAID ‘DROP THE NEW MUSIC’ GET UPPPPPP,” raved one fan. “Beyoncé’s commercial was better than the entire super bowl, I’m Sorry, but this is ART. Nobody can do what Beyoncé’s does. She broke the internet once again,” wrote another. A third fan gushed, “Beyoncé was paid 30m for her commercial, & it’s already been named thee GREATEST commercial of all time! & has already made HISTORY on the charts whew. An artist that’s nearly 30 years in the industry. She is unmatched.”
