Attention booty shakers: American Apparel, widely known for their provocative advertising, is holding “The Search for the Best Bottom in the World”. (Warning: link contains beaucoup de bare derriere)

The contest asks young ladies to “send in a close-up photo of your backside wearing American Apparel panties, bodysuits, or briefs.” Nice marketing trick, American Apparel. And what do you get? ”Two winners – selected by American Apparel judges – will be eligible to be our next butt model. The top ten contestants, as voted on by the public, will receive a grab bag of American Apparel items valued at $300.”

What’s that? You are being compensated for having your rear end exposed and criticized by thousands of strangers with a “grab bag” of items valued at $300? Let’s hope this includes some kind of garment to cover your proud backside.

Guess what, American Apparel? We found the perfect judge for your contest. He likes big butts and he can not lie!

** Editor’s note: I don’t actually support submitting pictures of your rump on the internet, but I do support being proud of what your Mama gave ‘ya. Keep it classy, folks.
