More About the Shoe Lady

This below news is related with the posting, Most Probably She Will Become a Shoe.


The Menifee woman held the Guinness World Record for her shoe-related collection...

In September 2012, Guinness World Records reported that Flynn's collection of 14,684 shoe-related items was the largest on the planet. Nicknamed "The Shoe Lady" and "Queen of Sole," Flynn was first recognized by Guinness in 2006, when her collection was about half its 2012 size.

The collection included a replica of Cinderella's glass slipper and "takes over the entire house, spilling over into the pool and bar areas as well," according to a 2012 Guinness World Records release. Her two dogs were named Shoesy-Q and Bootsy Shoebert.

Flynn and Smith appeared on a TLC's "My Collection Obsession" featuring the shoes. The couple said they met at a bar -- Flynn was wearing her "sexy light-up shoes" -- and Smith acknowledged they "sometimes argue" about her collection.

"Sometimes I think she gets too many shoes," he said. "But I learned to just deal with it."

In the TLC episode, Flynn purchased her 15,000th shoe item and outlined her plans for her own shoe line.

"I'll be surrounded by shoes when I die," she said.
