Maci Currin: Texas teen, 19, who has world's longest legs, aims to spread 'body positivity' via OnlyFans
A 19-year-old Texas girl, who broke not just one but two Guinness World Records for her long legs, has now joined OnlyFans to spread the message of body positivity. Maci Currin is six feet and 10 inches tall as the height of her right leg is 53.26 inches and her left leg measures up at 52.87 inches.
In 2021, she was honored with two world records — one for longest female legs and another for longest teenage legs. Her legs’ length is reportedly almost the same as actor Danny DeVito’s height. However, instead of hiding her elongated stature and shying away from the public eye, Currin is using it for good through her social media accounts, which also include OnlyFans, where she reportedly charges $35 a month but “nudity isn’t promised” there. She told The Sun, “I just want to prove that tall girls like myself can be as conventionally attractive as anyone else. I just want people to accept themselves for who they are and embrace their uniqueness.”

As per reports, Currin made her TikTok account as a joke but it gained unexpected attention and followers after one of her videos received 36.1 million views. The teenager said, “Since [my video went viral], my family encouraged me to make posts about my height and experiences. Through posting, I learned self-love and self-acceptance, and I wanted to try to show that being tall isn't as bad as people make it out to be.”
But Currin also admitted that sometimes her unusual height comes with its own sets of drawbacks. She explained: “The world isn't built for taller people and sometimes it is annoying. I feel like everything is built for one size, 'the ideal size’. When people approach me [in public] it's either to ask me about my height or to get a photo with me. I really don't mind answering their questions, they're just curious. The only thing I don't like is when people take photos of me without my permission. It's almost a breach of privacy - and they ain't even slick about it.”
The young woman claimed that her school years were not difficult as she was accepted for what she is but the online world was different. “I have gotten a lot of hate through social media. When I first started TikTok, it would bother me, but as I got older I realized why should I care what random people say about me over the internet. I'm never going to meet them, they don't know anything about me,” she said. However, she also mentioned that over time, she has also received people’s love and support online as several of them have contacted her and thanked her too.
Currently, Currin is not in a full-time job but hopes to become a content creator and model. She is also single by choice as she claims dating is not a problem because of her height. She remarked, “There are a lot of people who like tall girls, dating isn't difficult. I just choose to not date at the moment,” before noting that the world records have not “changed my life at all, to be honest." "People idolize me online, sure, but if I go out to dinner no one knows who I am," she added.
