Nick Lachey Partners With Peanut Butter Left TWIX®

HACKETTSTOWN, N.J., March 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The rivalry between Left and Right TWIX® has taken a new (left) turn. Today, Mars Chocolate North America announced that multiplatinum artist and television personality Nick Lachey has signed on to be the spokesperson for Peanut Butter Left TWIX®, in an effort to give Left TWIX® an edge over its counterpart.  

Lachey, who is known for his rich vocal stylings, was a natural choice to represent the rich, creamy peanut butter and crunchy cookie smothered in chocolate that is Peanut Butter Left TWIX®. Lachey will be featured prominently in new print and digital video ads, where he clearly states his preference and passion for Peanut Butter Left TWIX®.

(In a completely unrelated story, Lachey has also signed on to be part of a new digital video ad and print campaign for Peanut Butter Right TWIX®, which boasts smooth, velvety peanut butter and crunchy cookie smothered in chocolate. But the people at Left TWIX® shrug it off, as Right TWIX® just always copies what the Left side is doing anyway.)

"Nick Lachey perfectly represents rich and creamy Peanut Butter Left TWIX®, with his rich array of talents and clear preference for Left TWIX®," said Kerry Cavanaugh, Brand Director. "Just as our new ads make it clear the 'difference' between Peanut Butter Left and Right TWIX®, the partnership with Nick further clears up any confusion and helps fans finally know which side to pick of Peanut Butter TWIX®."

Both the print and digital video ads were created by BBDO New York. View the videos on the TWIX® YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/twix, find more information at http://www.Facebook.com/twix.us and declare which side you support, using #LeftTWIX or #RightTWIX.
