NEW YORK, Feb.24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' has partnered with NBC's "The Voice" for season six of the Emmy award winning singing competition show as the official hair care sponsor of the show. The multiplatform partnership will include custom content featuring personal stories of past "Voice" artists to celebrate resilience together with CLEAR SCALP & HAIR'. Additionally, as part of the initiative, CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' will join NBC's "The Voice," as the official title sponsor of "The Voice Live Tour" to launch summer 2014 across the U.S. Viewers also will have the ability to directly engage with the tour and an artist from "The Voice" to participate via social media platforms.

The multiplatform partnership will bring to life America's inner and outer resilience, while engaging with the show's thousands of fans in real-time. Tonight's premiere will kick off the first piece of custom, co-branded content starring past artists of "The Voice" to spotlight how season 5 winner Tessanne Chin and fan favorites Will Champlin (season 5), Jacquie Lee (season 5) and Dia Frampton (season 1) build their inner strength and resilience to put on their best performance each time they take the stage. The partnership also extends online with an extensive digital and social media activation planned to engage fans across NBC.com as well as social media platforms including Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. The partnership also will feature exclusive digital content on the co-branded digital hub.
As the official title sponsor of the "Live Tour," CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' will bring the message of resilience across the U.S., and provide fans with exclusive behind-the-scenes access and content from the road.
"CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' is all about nourishing the scalp. For beautiful, resilient hair from the foundation. There's no better platform for our message than 'The Voice,' which is all about resilient artists attempting to break through in music," said Jennifer Healy, Senior Marketing Director for U.S. Haircare, Unilever. "With 'The Voice' having a massive footprint on TV and in social media, CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' will be able to interact more deeply with fans and attract new users all around our resilience, scalp, and beautiful hair story."
The relationship between CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' and "The Voice" is rooted in resilience. CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' promises resilient, beautiful hair with its range of haircare products that deeply nourish the scalp and give women 10x more resilient hair[1]. Resilient hair can bounce back from all of the challenges it undergoes on a daily basis and still emerge beautiful. Similarly, artists on "The Voice" demonstrate what it means to be resilient every time they take the stage by persevering through challenges big and small to put on their best performances for America.
"Together with CLEAR SCALP & HAIR', we are engaging fans of 'The Voice' across multiple platforms and implementing innovative ways to involve our audience regardless of the setting or screen. This partnership demonstrates how NBC and our clients can successfully develop multiple access points for consumers to interact with their favorite content and brands. It's a great example of why advertisers are choosing to do business across the NBCUniversal portfolio," said Dan Lovinger, Executive Vice President, Entertainment Advertising Sales Group, NBCUniversal.
Timed with the brand's debut as the official hair care sponsor of NBC's "The Voice" for season six, CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' launched its new advertising campaign today surrounding its message of resilience, featuring international supermodel and CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' global brand ambassador Miranda Kerr. The ad spot reveals how Kerr works on her core to make her stronger, similar to her beauty regimen where she uses CLEAR SCALP & HAIR' nourishing hair care products to achieve strong, resilient hair.
Blockbuster reality series "The Voice" invites the strongest vocalists across the country to compete in this unique competition series featuring celebrity musicians Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Shakira and Usher as the vocalists' coaches. The show's innovative format features four stages of competition: blind auditions, battle rounds, knockouts and live performances. "The Voice" is a presentation of Mark Burnett's One Three Inc. and Talpa Media USA Inc. in association with Warner Horizon Television, and was created by John de Mol, who executive produces along with Burnett, Audrey Morrissey, Stijn Bakkers and Lee Metzger. "The Voice" airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 8/7c on NBC.
"Every element of the partnership was carefully designed to deliver a compelling experience to reach passionate fans of this massively popular program across all touch points," said Christine Lamson, Managing Director of Strategy, Mindshare. "The magic of a partnership this size only happens when the brand agency, Mindshare Strategy & Investment, partner agencies and NBC are crafting the pieces together."
