These People Are Famous Thanks to Their Extraordinary Looks

Julia Gnuse

Elaine Davidson is the most pierced woman in the world, and Julia Gnuse, also rightfully known as The Illustrated Lady, is the most tattooed woman in the world, with 96 percent of her body covered with ink. However, like most people covered with tattoos, Gnuse didn’t do it for the sake of art, but rather for her health.

Julia was diagnosed with a certain type of skin condition that prevents her from seeing direct sunlight. Gnuse had blisters covering her skin as a result of sunlight exposure, and in her 30’s, she started to cover them with tattoos. At one point, she held the Guinness Record for her tattoos. Gnuse passed away in 2016.
