New page - Diet coke commercial
The Diet Coke ad where they're rollerskating by the beach.
The song is "Starry Eyed Surprise" by Paul Oakenfold and Shifty.
The principal actress is Nicole Vicius.
More Information - Read my article for details about the commercial and the song.
Below I made a comment about IMDb for commercials. As far as I know, no such thing exists. Read more here.
This blog entry is for discussion about the Diet Coke commercial.

Looks like the Diet Coke commercial was filmed on a beach in California. I can tell you it was not filmed in The city of Long Beach a common spot where coke films commercials per the public records . I agree with the IMDb for commercials.

Yeah, I contacted Coke and got back a form letter saying that the actress did not give consent to have her name released, so they could not answer my question... I know at least 1 other person who got the same response from Coke.

heres some info bout the "sparkle" diet coke commercial:
the blonde girls top is from La Rok and it the pink sequin halter. its pretty expensive though cuz its made of 100% cashmere (paris hilton has the same one).
the song is "starry eyed surprise" by paul oakenfold, but they olny play the very beginning and the main verse on the commercial.
pretty sure the girl is nicole vicious...people are starting to say she'll be the new diet coke girl...??
the commercial can be seen at dietcoke.com, but its not very good sound though.

Thanks to those who have posted with comments and information.
As a reminder, I have information about the song and the commercial at http://www.mredkj.com/other/dietcoke.html
I can't confirm that the blonde actress is Nicole Vicious, because there's a lack of information about her on the net. However, here's the IMDb entry for Nicole Vicius.
Here's a blog that speculates she is the diet coke girl.

The commercial was filmed at Zuma Beach in Malibu; I've eaten at that FOOD stand a hundred times.

This song was used a couple years ago on VH-1 Classics for one of their own ad montages.
The music of the song is also sampled from the great Harry Nillsson's tune "Everybody's Talkin'" from Midnoght Cowboy, written by Fred Neil.

The commercial was shot at Zuma Beach in Malibu, there are a lot of rocks and cliffs just a few yards away from the food stand. The girl's nick name is Jilles in ModelMayhem.com She tends to be very discrete.

the girl Jilles are ModelMayhem.com looks alittle old to be the girl we are talking about, even though Jilles has a clip of the commercial in question up for her pictures. i really hope Jilles isnt her, with lots of makeup, that would just ruin a fantasy of mine.

The Sparkle girl is Nicole Vicius. She did the virgin phone commercial, she is the voice on Cartoon Network, and she is in the Gus Van Sant movie "Last Days". She is adorable, sweet, and keeps to herself.

Not sure where you can buy the top.
Do a google search for La Rok pink sequined halter and you'll find a bunch of pages that seem they might sell it, but I couldn't find any places actually selling it.
As I was searching around, I found an old comment at thatpepsigirl blog that mentioned how it's cashmere and that Paris Hilton has the same top.

Her name IS Nicole Vicius, she's also in the Gus Van Zant film "Last Days". It's about the last days of Kurt Cobain, and Michael Pitt and Asia Argento are also in the film.

That diet coke girls name is Nicole I can confirm that. However, her last name is not vicius, unless from the time that I knew her she got married. Nonetheless a very nice person and will try to get back in touch with her again.

which is streamed so I can't save it.
I'm just trying to test my hypothesis that the girl, the blades, the disco ball would make her awesome for the role of Marvel's Dazzler.
Any help is better than no help!

She looks cute in the commercial, but after seeing more pics her face looks a little fucked up. And upon closer investigation her knees are too pointy for my liking.

Glad to know I'm not the only one haunted and intrigued by that wonderful Diet Coke Sparkle commercial! I think it's one of the most visually captivating commercials ever. The blonde is absolutely gorgeous and I love the music! Too bad the Coke people didn't even bother to respond to my requests for the name of the song and artist. Thanks for the blog.

As of right now, it's still up at dietcoke.com as a streaming video. You can also stream it directly at akamai.com as an anonymous poster mentioned earlier.
I don't know where you can download and save it. A while ago I wrote to dietcoke.com support, and they said, "Our ads are specifically set up to prevent streaming, direct links and/or downloading."

I'm so glad to know there are others who love this commercial too. Mostly i ignore commercials, but this one I actually love watching. This sounds corny, but i don't know how else to put it - the ad just makes me feel happy. Like these people are as happy as humans can be just skating and being together (who cares about the coke!)

"Who made the commercial?"
I'm pretty sure the agency responsible for the Rollergirl ad is Foote Cone & Belding. There was a press release from May 05, 2004 at coca-cola.com that said "Advertising for Diet Coke is handled by Foote Cone & Belding/New York"
That particular press release didn't mention the "Roller Girl" ad, so you can refer to this stashmedia.tv page, in which it credits Foote Cone & Belding as the agency and Paul Hunter as the director.

Well - I'm happy to have found out the name of the song, also. Anonymous, I too get goosebumps whenever I see that commercial. I'm a 56-year-old woman. My fascination is with the whole scenario - the music really moves me; the skaters remind me of my children, when they were a little younger; my unrealized dream of moving the California. The whole thing has an ethereal quality, for me.
