Clothing Store Ditches Three-Way Mirror; Installs Butt Cam

SCOTTSDALE, AZ (POP America)  --  There's finally good news for men who get tired of being asked by their girlfriends or wives, "Honey, do these jeans make my butt look too big?"

You can now send them to Hub Clothing in Scottsdale, Arizona.  The upscale store has rolled out the revolutionary Butt Cam.  Gone are the days of stepping up to a 3-way mirror and nearly breaking your neck trying to see your lovely derrier.  With this device, all questions are answered in one camera shot.

The Butt Cam is set up outside Hub's dressing rooms and allows everyone around a free close-up of a customer's ass when they go to use it.  The setup also gives employees the freedom to display views of their more confident shoppers on flat screen TV's behind the cash register for the whole store to see. 

The device has been a big hit with shoppers.  Hub employees say the Butt Cam is just as popular with men as it is with women.  No word from the store yet if the Butt Cam has helped boost sales of its jeans.  A pair of jeans at Hub sells for between $135 and $900.

Come To Church, Win A Free iPhone

CORAL SPRINGS, FL (POP America)  --  In yet another sign that our culture has gone iCrazy, churches are now hopping on the iBandwagon. 

Church By The Glades in Coral Springs, Florida has launched a series of iThemed services designed to get people in the door.  Pastor David Hughes came up with the iDea, which runs over the next few weekends. 

First-time visitors to the Baptist church will be eligible to win a $15 iTunes gift card simply by filling out a "connection card."  One lucky visitor today even took home a brand new iPhone.

Hughes admits that his gadget gimmick is a way to bribe people to attend church.  He says he can't tell people about the message of Jesus Christ without getting them in the door first.

It's not the first time Hughes has used gimmicks to boost attendance.  In January, the church bought a billboard on the highway with the head-turning message..."The Bare Naked Truth on Sex." 

In the past 8 years, the church has grown from 500 members to more than 2500 members.
