Congratulations to the Townsville store team – pictured below – who won the competition!

Things kicked off with a press launch in Soho, followed by a stunt in Times Square.

Solange launched the press conference on top of a bed with some models in Yes Yes Yes PJs. Lots of papparazzi showed up and editors were in attendance, as well as our friends from MTV News and MTV Buzzworthy. Activity was kept digital with Solange tweeting to her 80,000 fans on Twitter during the event.

After the press launch, activity moved uptown where the Naked Cowboy put on some PJs and performed around Times Square with Yes Yes Yes models as they handed out condoms and posters for the campaign.

There was also lots going on for the launch event at The Body Shop store in Ermou, Athens – including live music and live online pledging.

Artists, C:REAL, Dimos Anastasiadis, MATISSE, Christos Hatzinasios, Myron Stratis, GAD, AMMOS, and NEKYIA were all there to support the cause. People passing by had the opportunity to hang out with their favourite artists in a unique photo call on a cool red lips shaped sofa.

MTV VJs Alex and Nafsika were on the front line promoting the cause, while beat boxers Word of Mouth presented the message in their own unique way… Radio producer Maria Papidaki from BEST RADIO 92.6 was also there, on the decks, giving the event a real party atmosphere.

Artists were invited to write their own safe sex message in speech bubbles for others to see, and further spread the word. Overall it was a great success!

Check out photos from the event below…
