It
is more like basket mouth …lol. Meet Ataye Eligidagne, the lady with
the largest lip disc in the world. The 20-year-old Ethiopian dons the
largest lip disc in the world with a whopping 59.5 cm in
circumference and 19.5 cm in diameter. That means it’s over twice the
size of the average disc. She beats the current lip disc on the Guinness
Book of World Records which is just 15cm in diameter.
According
to Ethiopian tradition, the lip disc has major significance. It is
meant to attract husband for the bride and also attract dowry for the
bride’s family. Oh, and the dowry depends on the size of the disc worn
by the bride.
If this tradition is practiced in Nigeria, I know so many of us will never get a suitor….lol.
