Meet Ataye Eligidagne the lady with the world’s largest lip disc

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.
