Beyoncé Knowles-Carter paid homage to a legendary Eighties advert as she flashed her underwear in a Levi’s commercial.

The singer, 43, stripped off in the 30-second advert, entitled Chapter 1: Launderette, which was a modern replica of Nick Kamen’s 1985 Levis 501 advert.

Beyonce’s version saw her head inside a laundry mat while carrying a bucket of diamonds and clad in a $98 pair of Levi’s Premium 501 90S Women’s Jeans.

Twin girls could be seen sitting in the laundrette as the singer howcased her 5ft6in figure in the snug boy-shorts and $29.50 Levi’s Essential Sporty T-shirt.

The 32-time Grammy winner then grabbed her empty bucket and headed to the chairs where she took a seat to patiently wait for her ‘laundry’ to finish.

Beyoncé Knowles-Carter’s song Levii’s Jeans came full circle as she starred in her first commercial for the 171-year-old denim brand set to the Cowboy Carter track

The advert, which was directed by Roger Lyons, led to a huge boost in sales for Levi and came forth in a countdown of the 100 greatest ads of all time.

It caught the eye of many – including Madonna – who reached out to Kamen, leading to their collaboration, when she sent him a song she had written with Stephen Bray.

They then joined forces on the track and he became her protégé.

Kamen died in May 2021 at his £1 million flat in Notting Hill at the age of 59 after secretly battling bone marrow cancer for four years.

Melina Matsoukas directed the spot for Beyoncé’s Reimagine campaign, which was a direct remake of the company’s 1985 ad in which a male model throws rocks into a laundry machine in order to ‘stonewash’ his Levi’s

Knowles-Carter said in the press release: ‘My song Levii’s Jeans celebrates what I believe is the ultimate Americana uniform — something we all wear with pride. I am honored to work with Levi’s to create quintessential American iconography’

The Texan singer added: ‘Denim on denim has often been seen through a male lens, so this reimagining campaign, which celebrates the iconic female perspective, is important to me. I look forward to exploring innovative ways for our visions to align in empowering women and honoring their strength’
