Woman with world's biggest mouth hits back at cruel 'frog girl' remarks
A woman with a record-breaking mouth has spoken out about how people often mock her looks - but why she won't stop sharing her talent.
Samantha Ramsdell won an official title for natural talent with the Guinness World of Records in July 2021.
She's also amassed thousands of followers thanks to her unique mouth, which measures 6.52cm when open. Unfortunately, not all of the attention is positive.
The content creator and comedian, from Maine US, say she's faced bullying for years, starting from when she was at school.
"Every day, I was called 'big mouth bass' or 'frog girl' and told I look like a Pit Bull," said Samantha, now 33.

Sadly, the barrage of cruel comments has not stopped. "Now, people tell me I'm ugly and disgusting every day, as well as asking: 'Is that a filter?', which definitely isn't the best thing for my mental health.

"But I've learned to love my differences, what makes me unique, and use it to my advantage."
The creator continues to share her talent with fans. Samantha started posting videos of her talent on social media in 2020, and she claims she now makes an estimated £11,000 per video.

Talking of her work, Samantha said: "I always wanted to get into comedy and now it's my full-time job and I get to tour around the US doing my live comedy show – I don't just fit things in my mouth for an hour, though.
"Hopefully, I can make people laugh, feel better about their own insecurities, and realise that it's empowering to love all your features and let them shine.
"Life's too short to try and fit in and be someone you're not. I feel like we should be celebrated for our uniqueness.
"It feels amazing to be celebrated for my differences.
