She's starting to make a believer out of me...

The last time we saw Jessica Perez she was winning the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model Search. I still think Catrinel Menghia should have won, but these new portraits that Jessica just had taken are starting to sway my allegiance. These photos, as awesome as they are (and they are quite spectacular), still haven’t convinced me should have won. I’m going to have to see more evidence. Perhaps if she did a couple or seven more bikini photo shoots and then I’d be able to throw my full support behind her. Let’s see what we can do about that, okay? Okay.
