MUSIC legend Seal has been transformed into an actual seal using CGI for a bizarre Super Bowl advert. The Super Bowl always throws up some incredible star-studded ad campaigns, but this unusual Mountain Dew commercial might be the pick of the bunch for Sunday's big game. London-born singer songwriter Seal, 61, has been enlisted by Mountain Dew alongside popstar Becky G to put together an advert that is sure to live long in the memory of anyone who watches it.

In the ad, Seal changes the lyrics to his hit song "Kiss From a Rose" to "Kiss From a Lime" in what has been dubbed as the "Official Song of Mountain Dew Baja Blast". The unbelievable commercial then sees Seal perform a small snippet of the tune while looking like an actual seal on a rock in the ocean. As if things couldn't get much weirder, the whole ordeal is watched by Becky G in a speedboat. While Seal ends his performance surrounded by orca whales leaping out of the sea and to the backdrop of an erupting volcano - yep, you read that right.

Speaking on being a part of the unusual campaign, Seal said it was "an honour" while speaking to Entertainment Tonight. And the four-time Grammy winner isn't worried about embarrassing himself in front of the 100 MILLION people expected to tune in to the Super Bowl on Sunday. Instead he's hoping it's his kids that will get the brunt of the teasing. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS.

He said: "I think it's going to be a great opportunity for me to make fun of myself and also for my kids to laugh. "Either they [my kids] will get a kick out of it or they will be eternally embarrassed at school - either one I'm okay with.". Seal shares four children with ex-wife Heidi Klum. Unbelievably the whole advert has been directed by Hollywood director Taika Waititi. The Jojo Rabbit and Thor: Ragnarok director was enlisted by Mountain Dew to lead the commercial, but only agreed to the ad after finding out Seal would be a part of the campaign.
