Jane Lynch working with LG to raise awareness about risky mobile phone behavior

LG Mobile Phones has announced that award-winning actress Jane Lynch is bringing her iconic humor and unique talent to the LG Text Ed program, a comprehensive educational campaign for parents that addresses teen mobile phone misuse, and provides parents with valuable resources so they can teach responsible phone use to their children. Lynch – the newest member of the LG Text Ed council – is featured in a series of comedic vignettes which can be viewed on www.LGTextEd.com. Lynch, a new mom herself, masterfully employs her artistic abilities and the result is a video series that is both humorous and thought-provoking.

Bringing her trademark intensity and flair to the LG Text Ed campaign, Lynch is working with LG to raise awareness about risky mobile phone behavior. As the star of the videos, Lynch tackles issues such as sexting, texting while driving, mobile bullying, and other questionable teen behaviors. At the end of each video, Lynch directs parents to LGTextEd.com where they can find professional advice and guidance to help promote safe and responsible usage among their text- and tech-savvy families. As one of the leading manufacturers of texting devices and a popular brand among teens, LG hopes the videos – and Lynch's use of humor to address the issues – will inspire parents to face the facts about their teen's sometimes risky and unacceptable mobile phone habits.

Lynch explains that her role in the campaign hits close to home. "Since becoming involved with LG on this campaign, I have realized the quick pace of parenthood," said Lynch. "So, LG brought me on board to shed some light on the issue of mobile misuse among teens. Together, we've created a series of videos that are entertaining yet speak seriously to parents about this growing issue."
