Alabama 10-year-old featured in Nike commercial to star in feature film
Birmingham, Ala (WIAT) — You may have seen Aria May in a catchy Nike Ad with WNBA star A'ja Wilson that debuted in May of this year. The 10-year-old from Alabaster can be seen teaching the three-time WNBA MVP from the Las Vegas Aces how to do a hand clap to the tune of Miss Mary Mack — but with catchier lyrics about Wilson's bona fides as a WNBA all-star and her Signature Nike A'One Basketball Shoes. As for how they landed on that hand clap, Aria May said, 'We were doing hand claps seeing which one would be best for me, so I could like make it better. So, we did the hand claps, and I found the one that's best for me. Miss Mary Mack.' May, who is entering the fifth grade this year, is the same age the commercial's director was when she first came on the national stage. That director, Malia Obama, was 10 years old when her family moved into the White House following the election of President Barack Obama. Aria's mother, Tineshia May, said it was already a big deal that Aria booked Nike, but they were both surprised when they arrived at the commercial shoot and saw Malia Obama and A'ja Wilson. She explained that the production was kept secretive. 'I look over to my right and I said, oh — that looks like Malia Obama, and I was like, that can't be, you know, just sitting there,' Tineshia May said. 'And then, when she came in, she said, 'I'm looking for Ms. Aria May. She came in and grabbed her, and said, 'I loved your audition, I loved the call back.' She was like, 'I chose you'. I was like, 'oh wow.'' Aria May, who has been doing commercials for about five years, said this one is her favorite so far. Birmingham man claims city forced him to sell home 20 years ago that's still standing 'At first, I was thinking, 'This is a commercial. We're going to get it done and then we can just chill out,'' Aria May said. 'But then, a surprise. We have Malia Obama coming in, then we have A'ja Wilson. I was like, 'What, what?' I was really surprised, but I was very comfortable.' Aria May said she wasn't nervous meeting Malia Obama, who she called Mo. 'She was very, very nice. She was really good at giving instructions, she was very precise, and overall, she was just very sweet,' she said. This 10-year-old actor can make that observation based on her own experience, which includes several commercials and feature length films. Some of these films include 'Reparashun' and 'Just in Time for the Holidays.' Aria May will also be featured in 'Paw Paw and Dayja,' a Gregory Alan Williams film coming out later this year.

Lil Wayne's Unreleased ‘Tha Carter VI' Song With U2's Bono Soundtracks NBA Finals Promo
ESPN is giving Lil Wayne fans a sneak peek at his The Carter VI album mere hours before it arrives. Unreleased track 'The Days' featuring Bono has been used in a promo ad for game one of the NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday (June 5). More from Billboard Monkees' Micky Dolenz Reveals He Lost Out on 'Happy Days' Fonzie Role to Henry Winkler: 'I Almost Got It' Tiësto & Sexyy Red Get Slinky on New Collab 'OMG!': Stream It Now Lorde Says This NSFW 'Virgin' Song 'Destroys' Her: 'I Can't Even Really Listen to It' 'I pledge allegiance to what I believe in/ Live to fight another day,' he raps. 'I ain't getting younger, but I'm getting better/ No time to waste that's another man's treasure/ They say every dog has hit day.' The U2 frontman then takes the baton to handle chorus duties. 'These are the days,' Bono sings. Without a single ahead of the album, 'The Days' snippet is the first taste fans got of C6, and the partnership makes sense with Lil Wayne being an avid hoops fan. 'Basketball's been in my blood since day one, so to team up with ESPN less than 24 hours before the drop of Tha Carter VI for the NBA Finals is an incredible honor,' Wayne said in a statement. 'My music and the NBA are vibin' on the same frequency because it's perfect timing for fans to hear Tha Carter VI on the game's grandest stage.' ESPN has been using numerous Wayne tracks to soundtrack NBA Playoffs ads this season, including 'I Am Not a Human Being,' 'Uproar' and the 'Glory (Remix).' 'Lil Wayne brings the energy, edge and emotion that define the NBA Finals,' Curtis Friends, vice president of sports marketing at ESPN, said in a statement. 'Integrating his music into our NBA Playoffs coverage has been a strategic brand flex — amplifying our storytelling and connecting with fans as we showcase today's rising stars on the league's biggest stage.' Game one of the NBA Finals tips off at 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC inside OKC's Paycom Center as the Pacers and Thunder gear up for a hard-fought series. After the contest, look for Weezy's Tha Carter VI to hit streaming services at midnight ET on Friday (June 6). Get a taste of 'The Days' with the NBA Finals teaser below.
