Uber Eats: Rides

Lil Nas X and Elton John make an appearance in Rides, a commercial that is part of Uber's "Make History, Not Dinner" marketing campaign. This campaign was connected to Uber's commitment to diversity and equality initiatives. In addition to Rides, the "Make History, Not Dinner" campaign also included other commercial clips with themes ranging from Mayonnaise vs. Ketchup to Legendary Looks.

As expected from a commercial, Rides presents a humorous situation featuring the two stars discussing their dinner plans-followed by an even more humorous twist once Uber delivers their orders. Part of the comedy comes from Elton John speaking in British English, which Lil Nas X struggles to understand.

I think both stars do a great job playing exaggerated versions of themselves, delivering their roles in a humorous and delightful way.
