As a part of the campaign, Hannah Jeter was also signed up for DirecTV ads. With the grace of a seasoned jockey, the model effortlessly upstaged the talking steeds that were in the ads alongside her. 

This gig came about when Hannah landed a lucrative six-figure deal, replacing Rob Lowe. Though the ad itself was a bit quirky – with the tagline “Don’t take it from me, take it from my horse’s mouth.” The campaign was a wide success and created a lot of excitement around the derby.
