July 25, 2024 (NEW YORK) – e.l.f. has tapped 3x Gold Medalist and Gymnast Gabby Douglas in her first sportscaster role to report on the growing trend around hot girl walks sweeping the nation. Gabby Douglas along with her broadcasting sidekick and actor Patrick Warburton provide viewers with outlandish play-by-play commentary, of the plausible threats and obstacles that walkers face, on E.L.F.SN, short for eyes.lips.face. Sports Network.

As the first official beauty partner of Hot Girl Walk, e.l.f. leans into a cultural moment, as the world tunes into summer games, to bring attention to a sport that deserves a spotlight — walking. The Hot Girl Walk Championship highlights the individuality of three different walkers and their varying levels of preparation to handle unforeseen obstacles on the track & field. Ultimately, the winner that emerges was seen earlier locking makeup with e.l.f.'s Power Grip Dewy Setting Spray, securing a flawless look until the finish line and even dodging a rogue leaf blower on the faux field.

Mia Lind, creator and founder of Hot Girl Walk, appears in a cameo role as a judge. Mastering the "walk" has gone from TikTok trend to must-do IRL activity for everyday athleisure enthusiasts. e.l.f. will sponsor a live Hot Girl Walk event in Miami next month to coincide with the campaign and release a custom Snapchat lens to tie in e.l.f.'s Snap Sports Network partnership. Additionally, hot walkers can snag the Hot Girl Walk e.l.f.ssentials Bundle, with everything needed to slay your way to 10k steps, including Power Grip Dewy Setting Spray on elfcosmetics.com starting today.

"The genesis of the Hot Girl Walk Championship is two-fold: first, there was an insight that our community and even our e.l.f. employees are gripped by group walks and second, our community is raving about the incredible makeup-gripping and staying power of Power Grip Dewy Setting Spray," said Laurie Lam, Chief Brand Officer of e.l.f. Beauty.

The parody, conceived and produced with e.l.f. creative partner Movers+Shakers, further boosts e.l.f.'s position as an entertainment brand. The bench of talent includes actors Elizabeth Yu, Nina Wisner, and Kevin Grullon and reality-show competitor, Christian Birkenberger.

"e.l.f. is an entertainment powerhouse! It is fearless campaigns like this that give the e.l.f. community everything they're asking for: humor, that insider wink, and a celebration of both the products and the pastimes the community loves," said Geoffrey Goldberg, CCO and Co-Founder, Movers+Shakers.
