Vida Guerra is a Cuban-American swimsuit model. Her first notable appearance was in a shoot for the U.S.
edition of , and since then, she has modeled for many other men s magazines, including Maxim. She often appears on Spanish television networks and is well known because of her large buttocks, which are usually accentuated in her photographs.
Born in Havana, Cuba, Vida Guerra moved with her family to the United States soon after, ending up in the town of Perth Amboy, New Jersey.
In interviews Vida has said that she was teased because of the size of her derriere, which was rather large for someone of her otherwise small stature. Growing up she entered a couple of runway shows modeling swimwear, and appeared in a few music videos. She eventually became a loan officer.
Her modeling career originally began when she submitted some photos for the Honey Next Door section of FHM magazine, on the suggestion of an ex-boyfriend. The magazine later reported that following the submission, almost one-third of their mail was from readers demanding more photos of the five-foot-two girl. She was called back for more photo shoots and became FHM s Model of the Year in 2004.
Since then, she has been featured on the front cover as well as on the inside of many magazines, including DUB, Smooth, Escape, and Open Your Eyes (Abre Tu Ojos), and has made multiple appearances on several Spanish language television programs such as El Gordo y La Flaca (The Fat Man and the Skinny Woman). Vida has also become a staple in music videos, appearing in Shake Your Tailfeather (P. Diddy, Nelly and Murphy Lee, from the Bad Boys 2 soundtrack) and The New Workout Plan (Kanye West) among others.
Additionally, she has appeared in Burger King s Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch commercial, a couple of sketches on Chappelle s Show, like the infamous Piss On You videos (spoofing the infamous R. Kelly sex tape), and also appeared in the film National Lampoon Presents: Dorm Daze II.
