Frank Ocean is one of the many new faces starring in Calvin Klein’s #mycalvins fall campaign.
Kate Moss, Bella Hadid, Margot Robbie, Cameron Dallas and Zoe Kravitz are also featured in the new celebrity-filled ads.
Ocean’s commercial shows the singer in a room musing about music and how he uses fantasy to alter the past while a television lights up the walls. A Marilyn Monroe look-alike also makes an appearance.
“If you start to have it and keep it up for four or five weeks then you stop, you feel like you’re missing something in your day,” Ocean says in the ad. “That’s what music is to me. It feels like a necessary act.”
“It takes a mind to worry; a conscious to feel ashamed. But there’s no place to hide out here; these skies are filled with planes,” Ocean continues.
Ocean revealed on his website that his sophomore album “Boys Don’t Cry” will be released in July.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting Ocean’s next album since his debut release “Channel Orange” in 2012. After the release of “Channel Orange,” Ocean revealed the album was about a man who was his first love.
