When Is Amazon Prime Day 2024?
One of the most-anticipated shopping events of the year, Amazon Prime Day 2024 is scheduled for Tuesday, July 16, and Wednesday, July 17. As with previous years, Amazon announced that Prime Day would take place across two days this summer, and promised that Amazon Prime members could score millions of deals during the shopping event.
This year, Amazon kicked off the Prime Day announcements with the help of rap superstar Megan Thee Stallion. The Grammy winner helped Amazon break the news by dropping her own new song and its accompanying music video, dubbed — what else — “It’s Prime Day.”
“With all these deals, I could be more than Megan Thee Stallion,” she says in the music video, which sees the artist transforming into everything from Megan Thee Stylist to Megan Thee Unboxer, with the help of products she ordered from her Prime account. Check out the video and listen to the new track below. (Bonus: You can already shop Megan Thee Stallion’s own Prime Day picks on Amazon.)
