Football, news: Miss BumBum Suzy Cortez gets Lionel Messi tattoo, Barcelona

Former “Miss BumBum” Suzy Cortez has taken her love for Lionel Messi one step further by getting a tattoo of her hero on her groin.

The new inking will not go down well with family Messi — the Barcelona superstar has previously blocked her on social media after being bombarded with saucy pictures.

The Brazilian, who also has the Barcelona player’s name inked close to her behind, says the new illustration fulfils a promise she recently made on a TV show.

“Since I also got the Barcelona shield tattoo on my butt, I was thinking of getting another tattoo to honour the best player in history,” the 29-year-old said.

“I commented on this for the first time in a television interview during my trip to Mexico when I won ‘Miss Butt World’. It was a promise and I kept it.”

However, it seems Cortez’s loyal admiration isn’t well received in all quarters.

She was blocked on social media by Messi and his wife Antonella Roccuzzo after tagging him in several provocative images.

She then launched an online campaign to encourage her fans to support her and convince Messi to unblock her.

“Much of this has to do with his girlfriend, Antonella Roccuzzo who has, rather unsurprisingly, not taken well to the idea of a model sending her partner X-rated posterior pics,” Cortez told the Daily Mail in 2016.

Despite the shade, Cortez makes no secret of her attraction to Messi.

Cortez’s most high-profile body part has won her the coveted 2015 Miss BumBum and Miss Butt World titles, beating competitors from all over the world.
