Jamie Foxx Stars in New BetMGM TV Campaign for 2024 Football Season

Published

on

 

BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, is premiering a new football season television commercial series featuring Jamie Foxx. Throughout the entertaining campaign, Foxx displays his comedic range with several character impersonations showcasing BetMGM’s brand DNA: born in Las Vegas, rooted in hospitality and entertainment, and focused on treating its customers right. Filmed in Los Angeles and directed by Brian Billow, the new spots will air nationwide in prime time and continue to run on multiple platforms throughout the upcoming season.

“I always love creating fun content with my BetMGM family when football season comes around. We had a blast filming these spots and showing the swagger of BetMGM,” Jamie Foxx said.

The spots highlight the premier experience that BetMGM provides to its customers. The first spot in the series, titled “Anthem”, stars Foxx portraying a variety of characters as they go through mixed emotions on game day. Through fans’ highs and lows, Foxx demonstrates how BetMGM treats customers with hotel suites and other real-world benefits redeemable through the sports betting operator’s rewards program and exclusive connection to MGM Resorts International’s destinations and Marriott Bonvoy.

A second spot features Foxx as a sportscaster explaining BetMGM’s new “Second Chance” promotion which allows anyone who places a straight bet on a player to score the first touchdown of the game to automatically win back their wager in cash if that player scores on the second touchdown of the game. A cast of characters – all played by Foxx – excitedly question the possibilities of the new offer which is exclusively available at BetMGM for the professional football season (Second Chance paid via withdrawable unrestricted funds).

In the series’ third spot, Foxx highlights how BetMGM makes bettors feel welcome with a special offer allowing new BetMGM customers to earn up to $1500 in bonus bets if their first bet loses (offer not available in NV, PR and ON; bonus bets are non-withdrawable and expire in seven days).

“Jamie Foxx is a rare talent who can captivate an audience in any forum. This campaign, in partnership with Highdive, taps into his confidence and range, and will both entertain and inform viewers about BetMGM’s exciting new features for football season,” Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer at BetMGM, said.

“We’re thrilled to unveil our latest campaign with BetMGM featuring the incredibly talented Jamie Foxx. Our aim was to showcase how BetMGM ‘treats you right,’ and Jamie’s performance brilliantly captures the campaign’s core message,” Mark Gross, Co-Founder and Co-Chief Creative Officer of Highdive, said.

Public Health Advocacy Institute (PHAI) and Congressional Leaders Unveil the SAFE Bet Act to Address Sports Betting Risks

Published

on

 

Public Health Advocacy Institute (PHAI) at the Northeastern University School of Law has supported Congressman Paul D. Tonko (NY-20) and Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) last week in introducing the SAFE Bet Act, which addresses the risks associated with legalized gambling.

The SAFE Bet Act is the first federal legislative initiative to address the vast public health implications of mobile sports betting since sports betting was legalized in 2018. When the SAFE Bet Act is enacted, federal standards will be set to create a safer and less addictive betting environment. While still allowing the freedom for those who wish to participate, these standards will include addressing advertising, affordability, and artificial intelligence issues.

PHAI’s President and Northeastern University Distinguished Professor of Law, Richard Daynard, said: “PHAI’s mission is to serve the greater good by seeking big ideas to advance public health and justice. That is why we’re fully dedicated to playing a leading role in work to bring about a comprehensive public health response to the looming crisis presented by the out-of-control gambling industry.”

“The gambling industry is following a playbook developed by the tobacco industry and this is a direct threat to public health. At PHAI, we will work tirelessly to address this threat and protect public health. Supporting the SAFE Bet Act is part of this effort,” Daynard added.

PHAI Executive Director Mark Gottlieb said: “It is my desire to play an important role in national and international efforts to develop and implement a public health approach to regulating the gambling industry and online gambling. At PHAI, we utilize a wide range of resources—including litigation and advocacy—to protect public health. It has become apparent that the gambling industry and its partners act with conscious and reckless disregard for public safety. Collaborating with Congressman Tonko and Senator Blumenthal to create the SAFE Bet Act is one part of how PHAI will bring a public health response to the gambling industry.”

“As the Director of Gambling Policy with the Public Health Advocacy Institute it is my role to develop comprehensive public health strategies and advocacy efforts to address the looming crisis being caused by the unprecedented expansion of the gambling industry and online gambling. The ‘responsible gaming’ model of industry self-regulation is unethical and an abject failure. At PHAI, we will help lead a growing movement to expose the failures of the gambling industry’s responsible gaming model. In doing so, we will develop and help implement a series of comprehensive public health reforms designed to regulate the gambling industry, prevent harm, and protect individuals and families. It is a privilege to support Congressman Tonko and Senator Blumenthal as we work to advance the SAFE Bet Act,” said Dr. Harry Levant, PHAI Director of Gambling Policy.

“Since their inception, sports and sporting events have been a chance for family, friends, and strangers to gather together in celebration of beloved teams and athletes in a great American pastime. But now, every single moment of every sporting event across the globe has become a betting opportunity. That resulted in a frightening rise in gambling disorder, which has in turn enacted a horrific toll on individuals, many of whom have lost their home, job, marriage, and their lives. We have a duty to protect people and their families from suffering the tremendous harm related to gambling addiction. Our SAFE Bet Act gets the job done and gives sports back to the American people,” Congressman Tonko said.

At the press conference, Senator Blumenthal said: “Right now, states have legalized gambling, but they failed to protect citizens against those excesses, abuses, and exploitations. State regulation is faint-hearted and half-baked. That’s why we need a national standard–not to ban gambling–but simply to take back control over an industry that is out of bounds.”
