Calvin Klein climbed to the top of YouTube’s January ad leaderboard with its “Our Family. #MYCALVINS” spot featuring Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner, Khloe Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian playing a game of “I never.”
The spot won the brand 15.4 million views, making it the most-watched ad on YouTube last month. Following Calvin Klein were ads from Nintendo and Special K breakfast cereal brand.
GEICO had two ads in the top 10, earning the insurance brand 8.5 million views total for the month.
Three of the top 10 ads were Super Bowl spots — Budweiser’s “Stand by You,” Michelob ULTRA’s ad featuring Chris Pratt, and Amazon’s “Alexa Loses Her Voice.” YouTube says it was the first time Michelob ULTRA has ranked on its monthly top 10 list of most-watched ads.
“The Wet Test,” What’s Up Mom’s branded spot with Pampers, squeezed in at No. 10 with 1.6 million views. While the spot ranked last, it was the third appearance on the ad leaderboard in the past five months for What’s Up Moms, a popular YouTube channel among parents.
