With up to half of all new smoking light-ups attributable to young people witnessing celebrity smoking, (Lancet 2003 http://image.thelancet.com/extras/03art1353web.pdf) the Celebrity Smokers’ award is designed to draw attention to the negative impact smoking celebrities have on young people – while offering a viable solution for the “winner.”

Each month The Stop Smoking For Good Company extends a public challenge to each Award “winner” to stop smoking for good, offering them help, including a complete smoking cessation program “How to Stop Smoking For Good in 5 Days” on digital downloads, paperback and audio CDs, to aid in the process.

Voting is open to the public (one vote per month – no registration required) at the company blog. Voters are presented with a choice of 10 of today’s most “in-the-spotlight” celebrity smokers – with the option to nominate a celebrity smoker of their choice.

The Stop Smoking For Good Company promotes global smoking cessation through online choices and awareness programs such as the Celebrity Smokers’ Award. Their website offers popular stop smoking programs, products assistance – with an extensive listing of free cessation help.
