Talk About a Big Mouth: Texas Woman Sets World Record for Widest Tongue

Meet the one woman who can indeed say the cat did NOT have her tongue. How could it when you hold the world record for the widest tongue?

A Taste of the Spotlight

This Texas woman has locked her name in the books with her massive mouth muscle (quite the tongue twister). Brittany Lacayo has officially been recognized by Guinness World Records for having the widest tongue for any female.

Guinness, in a recent X post, shared details on the record-holder.

After hearing about the previous record-holder for widest tongue on any female, Emily Shlenker, who's tongue measured a pathetic 2.89 inches, Lacayo decided to throw her tongue in the ring.

To make things even better, the average length of an adult woman's tongue is about 3.11 inches... the measured WIDTH of Lacayo's tongue.
