What page? They make pretty basic cameos. Once the ad is near release time, they'll probably put up some information about Queen.

I'm glad they're not mentioned at all. I just hope we can forget soon about this absurd mistake of Brian and Roger.
Although I must say, I worship the EMPEROR!!!

"Absurd mistake"?
Yes, how dare they work and meet with those women.
A little over the top, folks.

Typical marketing people I'm afraid. All they are interested in is writing about young, sexy females that are going to sell Pepsi to young males. Unfortunately it's a fact of life, even Enrique Iglesias has been sidelined (although other than appearing in the ad he does nothing so it's more understandable). Are Pepsi wrong to not mention Brian and Roger? In my opinion yes, but it's all down to branding and Pepsi sees itself as young and sexy, which unfortunately Brian and Roger aren't, lol. I hate marketing, I did some work in this line of things as part of my degree and during my time at a local radio station. It's just frustrating, but then the way the music industry markets itself is also very puzzling!
