Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, 57, is appearing in the NFL’s new campaign ad for fashion forward female football fans. They include fitted T-shirts, blazers and even earrings. The Daily Mail reports that Rice is doing the campaign as a form of empowerment. “It’s your team–not your guy’s team,” she said. Serena Williams is also featured in the NFL campaign.

Former Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, is making her modelling debut this month, but it has nothing to do with the current presidential race.

Wearing a fitted football jersey and a big smile, the 57-year-old poses for a newly revamped line of NFL apparel for women called ‘It’s My Team’.

The campaign, which aims to be a message of empowerment in the hopes of enticing women to the sport, also features a handful of notably successful women including Melania Trump, Serena Williams and Dancing With The Stars‘ Peta Murgatroyd.
