NEW YORK, Aug. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Malibu is bringing a little bit of sunshine to the world this summer through a partnership with Platinum Selling American DJ and producer Dillon Francis and over 30 Malibu Ambassadors from seven different countries for the launch of #TheCoconutChallenge. Media personalities and creators such as comedian Hannah Stocking, singer and radio presenter Fleur East, and creative director Ashley Banjo will kick off #TheCoconutChallenge by performing The Coconut Nut Malibu Remix dance moves, created by renowned choreographer Matt Steffanina.
"#TheCoconutChallenge represents summer fun and the spirit of being together," said Johan Radojewski, Vice President of Global Marketing for Malibu at The Absolut Company. "The partnership of our ambassadors from across the globe and the talents of Dillon Francis gives us the opportunity to share a little bit of sunshine."
