Squad goals! Nothing like Olivia Pope and Cookie breaking out the dance moves with Mary J. Blige. Kerry Washington and Taraji P. Henson joined the singer for an unexpected (and absolutely amazing!) Apple Music commercial, which premiered during the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday, Sept. 20.
In the clip, the ladies show that Apple Music’s playlists can now replace old-school mixtapes. “So, it knows your mood, it knows your taste,” the Scandal star says. “It’s like you have a boyfriend making you a mixtape in your laptop!”
And with that, the gal pals kicked up their heels and rocked out to Diddy’s “It’s All About The Benjamins” and Phil Collins‘ “In the Air Tonight.”
The new TV collaboration was directed by Selma’s Ava DuVernay. On Sunday night, DuVernay revealed that there’s even more to come.
“Yep, first of three,” she tweeted. “@AppleMusic rolls them out throughout the week. Loved playing w/ Queens Kerry, Taraji + Mary xo.”
