Gary Busey to Lend Voice to TomTom Portable Navigation Devices

Always Entertaining, Sometimes Irreverent, Busey Gets Drivers Where They Need to Go With Hip and Humorous Dialog

CONCORD, Mass., April 3 -- Gary Busey knows just where you're headed - and he'll tell you how to get there, too.

The latest celebrity voice available for TomTom portable navigation devices belongs to none other than the iconic Hollywood star Gary Busey. Gary adds his voice to the growing number of celebrity and character voices available for use on devices made by TomTom, the world's largest portable navigation solutions provider.

Navigate your way around town with Gary giving you turn-by-turn advice along with a few choice "Buseyisms" - the kinds of sayings that have turned him into an icon of cool across America and around the world.

Gary's driving advice ranges from the philosophical ("Make a U-Turn. Both the right and left side of your brain will be in action") to the outrageous ("Left turn ahead. Watch out for the animals in your area. If you create a roadkill, you are required to stop, pick it up, and eat it").

Like ringtones for mobile phones, voices like Gary Busey's and other top celebrities allow drivers to personalize their driving experience, turning a regular car trip into an enjoyable event.
