Pornhub Invades Rio with “Ooohlympics” Health Initiative to Help Combat Spread of Zika Virus Ahead of 2016 Summer Olympics
Adult Site to Exclusively Offer Free Membership to HD On-Demand Streaming Platform, Pornhub Premium, in Rio de Janeiro Through the Duration of the Summer Games
New York, NY (August 3, 2016) – Today, Pornhub, the premier online destination for adult entertainment, announced the launch of Ooohlympics, a health initiative designed to help keep those visiting Rio for the 2016 Summer Olympics safe from the Zika virus. As part of the initiative, Pornhub will provide free membership to its high-definition, on-demand streaming platform, Pornhub Premium, exclusively to residents of the State of Rio de Janeiro, Olympic athletes and visitors included.
To jumpstart the campaign, Team Pornhub will be in Rio on August 5th and 6th, handing out Zika protection kits consisting of a Pornhub Premium gift card, a canister of bug spray, a tissue box and bottle of lube; all the essentials to ensure protection. With many apprehensive to travel to Rio and attend the games due to fear of the virus, Pornhub is stepping up to decrease the chances of this disease spreading.
“As fear over the potential spreading of the Zika virus continues to grip the country of Brazil, here at Pornhub we wanted to ensure the protection of today’s top athletes, those traveling to Rio and the city’s current residents by offering free membership to Pornhub Premium. By providing an alternative to sexual intercourse, we are making an effort to combat this disease head on,” said Corey Price, Vice President, Pornhub. “Get ready to put your best O-faces on, for the Olympics of course.”
To provide users with information on the Zika virus, the official landing page for the initiative will include a detailed section with facts on the disease, in addition to instructions on how those in Rio can go about accessing their free Premium memberships. At this time, many Olympic star athletes are considering not attending the games because of this threat, and some of them have even frozen their eggs and sperm as a warranty of health for their future families as the virus can cause birth defects such as Microcephaly.
Pornhub’s Oohlympics initiative will also aim to encourage healthy competition among users in Rio. When users sign up for their free membership, they will be asked to identify which country they will be rooting for during the Olympic Games. Based on their input, Pornhub will update a live ranking of the nations with the most sign-ups. After closing ceremonies on August 21st, the three nations with the most memberships will receive gold, silver and bronze medals in recognition of their outstanding accomplishments. Don’t be afraid to come second.
