Skittles, America's favorite colorful candy, just announced that musician Steven Tyler will star in their Super Bowl 50 television advertisement on Sunday, February 7. Skittles rainbow colors come in a variety of flavors that includes Original, Desserts, Wild Berry, Sour and Tropical.

Steven Tyler is well known to rock and roll fans as the lead singer of Aerosmith, a renowned songwriter and a judge of American Idol. His hit singles include "Dream On" and "Walk This Way." Tyler has been named in Rolling Stone Magazine as one of the "100 Greatest Singers."

This is the first time Skittles has ever featured a celebrity in a TV commercial, and the brand's second Super Bowl ad. The first one debuted during the 2015 game.

As a show of appreciation, the brand created a custom, one-of-a-kind Skittles covered microphone for Steven Tyler, so he can rock on with The Rainbow leading up to the Super Bowl and beyond.
