NEW YORK - Fans who always have wanted to hang with Pitbull Productions exclusive Tiger Tyson now have the opportunity. Last week the company began distributing the star's image in a whole new medium: car fresheners.
The scented car freshener is the first ethnic porn-star car freshener ever made, according to Pitbull spokeswoman Patricia Reshen. The freshener, made to hang from a vehicle's rearview mirror, is non-nude but sexy, she said.
Reshen said the idea riffs on the legions of busty babe and hunky guy car fresheners offered at car washes and plays to Tyson's fan base of men and women.
"The ethnic fan base seems to be growing and growing," Reshen said. "Tiger has quite a few female fans."
According to Reshen, the freshener has "a nice, clean, fresh ‘ocean' smell [to compliment Tyson's image]. He's a clean-cut guy."
The Tiger Tyson car freshener will be distributed nationally in selected car washes. There's some good news for dedicated fans, though: Consumers who purchase DVDs from Pitbull's Web store, Thugmart, will receive one free with every order. Additional Tiger Tyson car fresheners are available for $3.95 each.
Reshen said Pitbull doesn't plan to stop there with Tyson logo items, either. A Tyson dildo already is on the market, and plans are in the works for a Tyson pump and cock ring.
