"I've been using NJOY Kings instead of cigarettes these days and I'm sticking to it," said Mars. "I believe in the product and the company's mission."

"Bruno Mars is an exciting addition to NJOY and we are pleased to have him on board," said Craig Weiss, Chief Executive Officer of NJOY. "Adding Bruno to our team expands our reach, raising further awareness of the NJOY brand and our company mission to obsolete cigarettes." Weiss added, "Many of our investors use our product and recognize the potential NJOY has to challenge the status quo and change people's lives for the better."

With nearly 70% of America's 46 million smokers looking for alternatives to traditional cigarettes, the electronic cigarette category has grown exponentially. The NJOY King is the first e-cig with the look, feel and flavor of the real thing and has become the best selling e-cig in America. An award-winning master tobacco flavorist developed both NJOY King flavors--traditional tobacco and menthol--in the USA. NJOY also offers King customers the choice of two nicotine levels: Gold and Bold. NJOY fans say the King is the closest e-cig to the real thing. It has no ash or odor and comes in an easy-to-carry, flip-top case.

NJOY Kings MSRP is $7.99. NJOY Kings are available in over 60,000 retail stores nationwide, including 7-Eleven, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, Hess, Chevron, RaceTrac, and Circle K.
