Unconditional devotion and love for music can inspire people to do amazing things.

The story of Tara Berry from Topeka, Kansas, is proof of this.

An American woman has entered the Guinness Book of Records, setting a record for the number of tattoos dedicated to one musician.

She has 18 tattoos of her favorite singer Madonna on her body.

Tara began following Madonna's career in 1983.

The woman got her first tattoo many years later, in 2016, when Madonna was looking for fans with tattoos to film her music video.

Although Tara didn't make it into the video, that didn't stop her from continuing to fill her body with tattoos of the singer.

Tara says she got her inspiration for her tattoos from the previous record holder, British Nikki Patterson, who had 15 Eminem tattoos.

When Berry learned of her "rival" she already had two tattoos.

She completed the rest, the bulk, within six months.

It took Tara about 110 hours and over $9,800 to complete all 18 tattoos.

Each tattoo reflects different stages of Madonna's career, from her early looks to her modern ones.
