Unusual ‘Beauty and the Beast’ phone case goes viral
Disney-loving members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are buzzing over a phone case made by an Australian company that features the characters from “Beauty and the Beast” in front of the Mormon temple, which the Hong Kong designer thought was a castle.
The Salt Lake Tribune reports Katie Hoyos, a mother of four boys, is a megafan of the 1991 animated classic and a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She posted a photo of the case on Facebook. The post has since been shared more than 5,000 times on the social media site and made the rounds on Reddit.
Hoyos says she’s a bit baffled by the attention and says she never intended for her or the image to go viral.
Pinky Beauty Australia, which manufactured the case, says it has sold out since Hoyos’ post.
