Tara Berry of Topeka, Kan., recently broke a Guinness World Record by getting 18 tattoos of Madonna on her body. This surpassed the previous record holder who had 15 tattoos of Eminem. Berry first got a Madonna tattoo in 2016 as part of an attempt to appear in a music video but was unable to make it in time.
After discovering the previous record holder, Berry decided to go for the world record title. She worked with her tattoo artist to create a design that spanned Madonna’s entire career and included iconic images like the famous kiss she shared with Britney Spears at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. Berry is often asked to take pictures of her tattoos and happily obliges.
In total, Berry estimates that she spent over $9,800 on the tattoos. Determined to achieve her goal, she borrowed money and worked out payment deals whenever necessary. She is proud of her accomplishment and thrilled to hold the Guinness World Record title for the most tattoos of a single musician on her body.
