The Weeknd's custom vape plays his song when you smoke

by Jeremy Mersereau

If there’s one gadget everybody needs this holiday season, it’s a $400 Weeknd-branded vape that lights up and plays a MIDI version of “The Hills” every time you turn it on! Perfect for Grandma! “There you go bubbe, now you can get more lifted than….than…” *tries desperately to think of a reference she’ll actually get* “…Sputnik!”

Abel Tesfaye’s chosen to bestow his likeness and XO logo on a special edition of the PAX-2 vaporizer, and all it’ll run you is $419.99 CAD ($61 bucks more than a regular PAX 2, with no additional functionality, unless you count ‘branding yourself as a next-level Weeknd fan and serious surreptitious smoker’ as an additional feature, which many probably do). But hey… can you really blame them for wanting to sell a vape at that price point? Check out what number the price almost is. Do you see it? Need a hint? Add one cent and what do you get? Hmmm? Hint: it is the weed number.

The perfect gift for any e-cigarette/Xanax-fueled orgy enthusiast, you can order the Weeknd vape here. Next up in overpriced, musician-branded gadgets that only tech bros think are cool or would ever be caught dead using in public: an official 2 Chainz Segway, hopefully.
