That's one swell pout! Woman desperate to look like Jessica Rabbit gets world's biggest lips after 100 injections (and she's not stopping there)



A woman desperate to look like Jessica Rabbit has won the dubious honour of being in possession of the world's biggest lips after having 100 silicone injections.

Kristina Rei, 22, was convinced her thin lips made her ugly so she opted to have them enlarged in the style of her favourite cartoon character, at a cost of more than £4,000.

Now the nail technician admits she has an addiction, but still plans to have her so-called trout pout made even more outrageous.



Each injection costs roughly £40 and is 'extremely painful' but Kristina, from St Petersburg, Russia, insists nothing will stop her.

She said: 'I think I look fantastic and it makes me happy. Sometimes strangers shout names at me in the street - like big lips - but I don't care.



'I want to go more extreme. I want to look like a cartoon character. I am addicted to it. I love it.'



Kristina said she always believed her lips were too small and used to compare them to those around her.

She said: 'My older sister Ira had beautiful, full lips and I loved Jessica Rabbit's huge lips. She was my idea of the perfect woman.

'From the age of four I thought my lips seemed thinner than everyone else's and I decided when I was quite young to get them enhanced.



'In Russia, you see adverts for silicone and Botox on TV all the time.'



At school Kristina was bullied because of her looks. She said: 'My classmates called me "ugly". They didn't tease me because of my lips specifically - but I believed big, full lips would make me beautiful.'

Deluded? The 22-year-old says a fixation with Jessica Rabbit led her to enlarge her lips to cartoonish proportions

At the age of 17, Kristina went to a local beauty parlour for her first lip injection.

She said: 'The first one was extremely painful but I loved the result. I knew it was going to take a lot more injections before I had the sort of lips I wanted.

'After that I started having them regularly - the beauticians never seem to be surprised when I turn up for more injections.'



Kristina, who is single, recently reduced the frequency of the injections to once every few months.

Determined: Despite verbal abuse for her 'trout pout' Kristina has vowed to have her lips made even bigger



She said: 'My big lips have helped boost my confidence. Even my parents are happy for me. They really don't care about my appearance. Some of my friends have told me I shouldn't go any bigger but I'm not satisfied yet.'



Despite constant staring from strangers, Kristina, who has never had a boyfriend, loves her bizarre appearance.

Unattainable: Kristina claims her enhanced lips make her look more like her idol Jessica Rabbit

She said: 'I know some people think I look ridiculous but I don't care.



'Sometimes I like the attention I get like when people try to film me on their mobile phones. Some of the abuse has been hurtful - I've been told I look like a man but those people are idiots.'



Kristina insists she can eat, speak and kiss just the same as before and hasn't suffered any painful after-effects.



She said: 'Each injection hurts as much as the last. Fortunately I've never suffered with an infection or painful lips afterwards.'



She said: 'Other than the way I look my lips haven't had a big impact on my life so I'm definitely not going to stop now.



'I have no health concerns about what I'm doing. Nothing has gone wrong so far. I haven't decided how big yet but they are definitely too small at the moment.'

She is so happy with the modification that she is planning to go further and have surgery in the future.
