Chanel Tapper from Houston has been officially certified by Guinness as having the world's longest tongue.

Chanel, 21, who has a whopping 9.7cm tongue, shot to fame at the age of 13, when she was spotted sticking out her long tongue in a YouTube video.


In September, Guinness invited Tapper to Los Angeles, where they measured her tongue and she closely beat two other female contenders to the record.

Tapper said she loves her record-breaking tongue.

"I have always been silly and goofy. I love sticking my tongue out at people," the Sun quoted her as saying.

"I started doing that back in school. I've never had a problem with having a long tongue, it's just fun," she added.
