REFLECTING ON 2022

By: Aqualillies Posted On: December 29, 2022

We hit the water at top speed this year, and we are so grateful for incredible performance opportunities around the world! From on-camera features to a myriad of live shows, dive into some of our favorite moments from 2022 below.

LIZZO
Lizzo’s music video for her No. 1 Billboard hit “About Damn Time” features our ‘Lillies surrounding her in a multicolored kaleidoscopic circle, while she stands on a custom-built lucite platform playing the flute!  It was an honor to work with this driven and visionary star.

THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT ON HBO MAX
Our ‘Lillies made a cameo in the mind of Cassie (played by Kaley Cuoco) during a fever dream sequence in HBO Max’s multiple time Emmy-nominated series, The Flight Attendant. Check us out in “Drowning Women”, Episode Five of Season Two.

CALVIN KLEIN CAMPAIGN WITH SOLANGE KNOWLES
Calvin Klein’s Spring 2022 campaign “All Together” features Solange Knowles alongside our ‘Lillies. We were thrilled to be a part of this diverse and inclusive campaign, which highlights community – and had cameos from some of entertainment’s most exciting performers.

MUSIC VIDEO WITH J BALVIN
We transformed into siren mermaids around J Balvin in the Murda Beatz music video “NO MÁS.”  Shot in Miami, the ‘Lillies worked in both the ocean and the pool to help create these sleek final shots, along with the amazing hair-and-makeup and CGI teams.

HULU ORIGINAL FILM “SEX APPEAL”
We took a playfully creative turn in this climactic water sequence for the comedic and charming Hulu original film Sex Appeal.  We also worked with the lead actors Jake Short and Mika Abdalla to perfect their water performance skills!

NETFLIX OPEN HOUSE EVENT
A fabulous open house? Of course they invited us to celebrate with a splash! Our ‘Lillies performed a sparkling sequined show at a private home in Beverly Hills with the cast of the hit Netflix show, Selling Sunset.

PARIS HILTON’S LAS VEGAS BACHELORETTE
We celebrated with Paris Hilton with a surprise performance for her epic bachelorette party in Las Vegas! Held in her private pool suite at Resorts World Las Vegas, our performance was featured in her new Peacock original show that follows her wedding journey, Paris In Love.

LOS ANGELES SUMMER WATERSHOW
We were so excited to be back in LA this year for our annual Summer Watershow in celebration of silver screen star Esther Williams. This year’s show took place at the historic Hotel Figueroa in Los Angeles, and we had a full house! Join us again next year for this summertime celebration, which takes place every year on August 8th (Esther Williams’ birthday!).

MIAMI BEACH ART BASEL
We returned to Art Basel Miami Beach / Miami Art Week for the fifth year! This year we made a splash at a private residence soirée celebrating art + design.

NIKE SWIM SUMMER LAUNCH
Nike launched their Summer 2022 Swim campaign with a performance in LA, with our ‘Lillies donning the collection’s swimsuits in an amazing infinity pool!

GFORE
In bright red, we jumped into this dynamic campaign for apparel company G/FORE, captured by celebrated fine art photographer Tony Kelly.

SPRANDI
Our trio of ‘Lillies worked their legs for the Sprandi 2022 campaign, featuring Finn Wolfhard from Stranger Things and Kyle MacLachlan from Twin Peaks.

We don’t always need water to create a party vibe! One of our favorite moments this past year was a bathing beauty-themed dance performance for + POOL at Manhatta in NYC. Our ‘Lillies brought poolside glamour everywhere this year, including many parties without pools.

Our male performers were all over the place this year, from making a splash at the Soho House in Los Angeles to merman events in San Diego. A highlight moment this year: performing at a Pride event in one of our favorite locations, Palm Springs!
