California-based footwear brand Skechers has teamed up with 2016 Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor for a new multi-platform marketing campaign to launch the Skechers Originals retro sneaker collection. Trainor’s partnership with the brand will continue through 2017

A TV commercial for the men’s and women’s line of sneakers will hit the airwaves next week and features the lead single “NO” from her highly-anticipated sophomore album , Thank You, which will be available worldwide on May 13, 2016. An extended version of the commercial will also debut on YouTube to reveal a more in-depth story. The overall campaign also includes print ads, online and in-store images. “I can’t wait to travel the world and see my face in Skechers stores – it still blows my mind! It’s an honor and dream to work with a big brand like Skechers,” said Trainor, who received the Grammy for Best New Artist and is best known for her hit single “All About That Bass”

“Meghan is an inspirational artist with many impressive accomplishments at only age 22, so we’re thrilled to be working with her on this global campaign for Skechers Originals,” said Skechers president Michael Greenberg. “With the media attention after her well-deserved win at the Grammy Awards and her new album, Meghan’s impact as an influencer continues to grow.
