Size 12! But in their defense, these women who walk around with much larger-than-average feet are also taller than average. And better looking than average as well.

Female Celebrities with the Biggest Feet–Size 10 1/2 [PHOTOS]
As long as I can remember, I've been self-conscious about the size of my feet. I can't borrow shoes from friends, because they all have normal sized feet.
