He\u2019s bored. No. Steady. Always watching. I can do that. How hard can it be?&#8221; before seemingly answering a call from Jennifer. <\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s heard saying on the phone: \u201cWhat\u2019s going on baby? I had this crazy dream, you\u2019re going to laugh. I had come up with like some beats. And then you were like, \u2018Maybe you should put that on the record.\u2019 I even had a persona like JLo or like BLo. That\u2019s the bad version obviously.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ben then attempts to become a pop star with the help of influence Charli D\u2019Amelio, who tries to show him how to dance, but becomes concerned about him when he asks her: &#8220;Who is TikTok?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nAfter the failed dance session, the actor then gives himself a motivational talk saying: &#8220;They tell you you\u2019re no good. You\u2019re a goofy, middle-aged, clumsy white guy with no rhythm and you can\u2019t sing on key. You\u2019re not coordinated. That means I can&#8217;t be a pop star? Underestimate Boston? At your peril.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe advert finishes with Ben chomping on a doughnut and making a reference to his wife&#8217;s new album &#8211; &#8216;This Is Me \u2026Now&#8217; &#8211; as he declares: &#8220;This is me now&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe commercial finishes with a &#8220;To Be Continued&#8221; sign sparking suggestions a second part could air during the upcoming Super Bowl.<\/p>\n<p>\nBen previously debuted his Dunkin&#8217; partnership during the big game last year. He was seen working in a branch of the doughnut at the drive-thru window when his wife pulls up and scolds him, saying: &#8220;What are you doing?
