Jennifer Gosnell — June 23, 2012 — Pop Culture
The heartfelt and awesome London 2012 Olympic Procter and Gamble commercial gives a look into the lives of not only the athletes competing in the upcoming Olympic games, but the parenting it took to get them there. Behind every great athlete is someone who helped them get there, and this commercial is a shout-out to all the amazing mothers who woke their kids up early, drove them to practice and supported them along the way.
The touching commercial is part of the rev-up to the London Olympic Games that start on July 27th and feature an array of summer sporting activities. In the commercial a runner, volleyball player, swimmer and gymnast from all over the world and coming from many different cultures are featured with their moms getting the help they needed to get them to the Olympics as world-class athletes.
