Barcelona superstar and FIFA World Player of the Year Lionel Messi along with his Barcelona team-mate Thierry Henry, Chelsea duo Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard, and Liverpool talisman Fernando Torres all teamed up with Pepsi MAX to show their true colours as part of the new bodypaint campaign.

Jeroen, a good friend of ours, gave us this new TV commercial, which was filmed in Africa. It highlights the talents of the ‘MAX football stars’.

Earlier this year, Pepsi MAX launched the track, ‘Oh Africa’, which was recorded by Akon, Keri Hilson, the Soweto Gospel Choir and 16 aspiring musicians from around the world. The track will be the anthem for the new football TV commercial.

Pictures of the players can be viewed after the jump.
