Amateur chef Roger Federer and Mikaela Shiffrin at the Barilla party

The advertising deal between Roger Federer and Barilla has been running for two years. According to Handelszeitung the pasta love affair is expected to earn the tennis superstar a whopping four million francs - per year. In return, a new commercial can be found from time to time. The latest prank takes the viewer to a villa at a chic party. The party is obviously lacking salt in the soup. Luckily, star chef Davide Oldani is in the kitchen and Roger Federer is on the guest list. A pack of Barilla No. 5 and a few moves later, the kitchen party is perfect. Ski star Mikaela Shiffrin, who is prominently announced, only appears in a supporting role. But this is probably the role one usually plays anyway, alongside advertising heavyweight Roger Federer.

The Amsterdam agency 72andSunny is responsible for the creation of the new spot. In addition to the one and two-minute versions, a behind-the-scenes video allows a look behind the scenes of the shoot. Buon appetito!
