Countess Luann de Lesseps may have once preached “Money Can’t By You Class”, but she’s singing a different tune for the first-ever Uber Eats holiday campaign. Sparks flew when we were paired with the RHONY star and Special Group to re-envision this, once club banger, as a jazzed-up cabaret number. The lyrical spin is full of tips for how to be the consummate party guest. Custom cover, celebrity record, final mix and sound design by team Heavy Duty.
