Julia Gnuse
Elaine Davidson is the world’s most pierced woman, and Julia Gnuse, also known as The Illustrated Lady, is the world’s most tattooed woman, with 96 percent of her body covered in tattoos. Gnuse, like other people covered in tattoos, didn’t do it for the sake of art; she did it for health reasons.
Julia suffers from a particular type of skin condition that prevents her from seeing direct sunlight. As a result of sunshine exposure, Gnuse developed blisters on her skin and began tattooing them in her 30s. She set the world record for tattoos while she was alive. In 2016, Gnuse died.
