Video Q&A: Jess Gomes and Jess Perez

Andy Gray | Apr 4, 2013

****************

Jessica Gomes and Jessica Perez - who we're tempted to call "The Jessicas" but won't - are among SI's most popular swimsuit models, due as much to their unique backgrounds as good looks. Gomes is an Australia native with a Portugese father and Chinese mother while Perez was born in Costa Rica but spent most her of her childhood in Honduras and Ecuador. To boot, she also has a Psychology degree from Hunter College. SwimDaily caught up with the duo to discuss their celebrity crushes, bucket lists and each other's best features. As the above video demonstrates, Perez loves junk food, Gomes face is perfect and one of them has an 80-year-old grandma with a lot more courage than you or I. Added bonus: We threw in a gallery of their best swimsuit photos.
