'My Strange Addiction' Profiles Sheyla Hershey, Woman With 38KKK Breasts (VIDEO)


First Posted: 02/17/2012 5:48 pm Updated: 02/17/2012 6:01 pm

Sunday night's installment of TLC's "My Strange Addiction" profiles Sheyla Hershey, a woman with size 38KKK breasts. After 22 breast enhancement surgeries over the course of 13 years, she's steadily increased her size from a B-cup to a K. She now has 85 fluid ounces of saline in each breast, and they've gotten so big that they preclude her from jogging, hugging her daughter, tying her own shoes and finding clothes that fit.

But Hershey doesn't seem concerned about her gigantic bust, no matter what problems they may cause. "I love them like they are my kids ... They are the most good thing in my life," she explains. "The women [are] always jealous because their husbands can't keep their eyes off my breasts."

Hershey has been making all sorts of bodacious headlines in recent months. She had to travel to Brazil for her most recent surgery because of a Texas law that limits the amount of silicone that can be injected into breast implants. On Super Bowl Sunday, she was in a car accident, and claimed that her breasts saved her life by acting as airbags when the car's real airbags failed to deploy.

Check out Hershey's story on "My Strange Addiction," which airs Sunday night at 10 p.m. EST on TLC.

Ok WHY does she "drop food on her shest"....what does that have to do with having big boobs? You cant get your fork to your mouth? I'm confused. Also this woman has some of the worst broken english..which of itself is fine but she says it so defiantly....thats what makes it laughable.

Just couldn't watch it due to laughing out loud. As to "husbands can't keep their eyes off them?" The reason for that is the men are wondering if a snorkel would do or if they'd need scuba to maintain air flow if they ever fell into the chasm.

Yes, I am jealous of your huge saline bags which preclude you from hugging your actual child but for which you feel a motherly sense of love. Wow! Why do doctors participate in her illness?

It's really sad that she loves her breasts more than her daughter and they are a higher priority to her. I feel bad for the girl.

I feel sorry for her child. She compares the love she has for her children as the same as she has for her breasts???? She doesn't mind dying for her breasts??? She could barely carry her little girl. I didn't see that she worked so I put half the blame on her husband for being willing to pay for them. Maybe he has a large life insurance policy on her and doesn't mind if she dies. Think about your little girl before yourself!

What good are those breasts if they can't bring YOU pleasure? When you get implants there is a chance you'll lose nipple sensation. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I'm thinking after 22 surgeries you pretty much have no feeling left in them.

You have to understand that when you have a society that fetishize a body part, then it becomes something that men (and some women) would seek. It's no different from those groups of people who see elongating one's neck or lips as the pinnacle of accepted social norms. As to this woman's problem: she wants attention and validation from others, thanks to the "Mother Hen" syndrome. Chances are, she never got the attentions she deserved from her mother.

That's right...blame it on us mom's.... More likely she got it from a poor self image that her peers/society perpetuted... She's quite the egocentric tart...

No, they're not attractive at all. Proportion is what draws attraction, not this freakishness.

It's not jealousy, we all stop to look at train wrecks.
