À propos de cet audio
Usain Bolt has just stepped onto a new kind of podium, serving as the face and voice of Jamaica’s latest global tourism push. According to the Jamaica Gleaner and Jamaica Tourist Board, Bolt was named Jamaica’s Global Tourism Ambassador, with the campaign officially launching August 6th to mark the country’s 63rd Independence Day. The centerpiece is a striking 30-second video where Bolt shares personal reflections on growing up in the hills of Trelawny, charting his path from humble beginnings to international stardom. His message: Jamaica is not simply a destination, but a feeling—one powered by energy, resilience, rhythm, and the indomitable spirit of its people. Bolt declares, “We are a small island, but we do big things here,” a line reverberating through social media and mainstream news, perfectly capturing the campaign’s goal to make Jamaica synonymous with adventure, inspiration, and connection.
The campaign is set for a major rollout, targeting key international markets, and will leverage Bolt’s immense global appeal through digital storytelling, social media activations, and guest appearances at headline tourism events. Jamaica’s Director of Tourism Donovan White and Minister Edmund Bartlett have emphasized this as more than a summer ad blitz. Bolt is positioned as a long-term strategic figure, intended to deepen emotional ties between global travelers and the Caribbean island while celebrating Jamaican culture, music, cuisine, and breathtaking landscapes. The buzz is palpable both offline and online—Bolt made a much-publicized virtual appearance at Jamaica’s Grand Gala, an Independence Day national celebration, as reported by Instagram and local media, where his celebrity drew wide engagement and praise.
In the world of business, Footboom reports that Bolt is still riding high as a restauranteur back home, actively mixing the branding savvy of a global athlete with sharp entrepreneurial instincts. While no new culinary ventures broke in the last few days, insiders suggest Bolt’s focus is on leveraging tourism synergies and celebrity for ongoing hospitality success.
Bolt’s social accounts, fan pages, and the Jamaica Tourist Board’s own digital presence have all echoed the campaign’s message, with the Independence Day video spot prompting thousands of likes, shares, and positive comments from fans and travelers eager for a taste of the champion’s home turf.
There have been no credible reports of controversial incidents or negative headlines involving Bolt in public or private life over the past week. No speculation or rumors of health, personal issues, or dramatic developments have appeared in major news outlets or social feeds. Instead, the recent headlines have all focused on Bolt’s ambassadorial role and the fresh wave of attention he is bringing to Brand Jamaica. The long-term significance is clear: Bolt’s presence and story are now poised to leave an even deeper cultural mark, not on the track but on Jamaica’s identity in the global travel marketplace.
