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.

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."

"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.
"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.
She said: "When I can afford it I want to enlarge my breasts from a C-cup to a DD, change the shape of my nose and I want to make my ears pointed like an elf. It's good to be different."
