The Cuban Ms. Fat Booty and XXL. Mmm-mmm good.
Though Vida Guerra first popped up in Big Pun and Mr. Serv-On’s 1999 video “From N.Y. To N.O.” and was an almost invisible feature in “Shake Ya Tailfeather,” the 25-year-old has been viewed as more FHM than XXL. So when she played Cassidy’s leading lady in his “Get No Better” visual we decided to twist her out––hip-hop style. Taking a break from filming her starring role in next year’s movie Kakuy––where men will get to witness that Vida is as flexible as she is sexy (“I can put my head between my knees”)––she took a sec to lunch with us at the 40/40 Club and converse about a beautiful topic––herself.
Have you always been curvy?
Yeah, I was getting into fights with guys since the first grade. I actually gave a guy nine stitches for grabbing my ass in fourth grade. My teacher leaves and gives me the test grades, so I’m handing them out and he thought it was funny to grab my ass. So I grabbed his hand and threw him ’cause I was so mad. He hit [his head] on a corner of a desk and got nine stitches.
Not that I’m complaining, but why did you decide to get implants?
When I got birth control pills, my boobs grew to like D-cups and everybody thought they were fake. So when they went back down I was like, Damn, I want them back the way they used to be. I have no regrets.
Tell me a little about this movie you’re filming. You kick some ass in it, right?
Yeah, my character’s the only one left from her Shaman tribe. In the jungle, Shamans were like witch doctors, they brought natural herbs from the trees to heal, and there’s a guy that wants to bring it back to the US and say it’s his invention. He sends two guys to kill me and because of the [Kakuy] bird I gain powers and kick ass [laughs].
Weren’t you fucking with NY Giant Jeremy Shockey?
No, I went to his Sports Illustrated shoot [because] he wanted me in the issue. That was the first day I met him. Then we all went out to eat—my manager, his sister, his friends. We’re eating and discover that we’re all going to the same 40/40 party [the grand opening]. But nobody could get in, just me and him. So we’re walking together on the red carpet and if you walk next to somebody on the carpet they’re like…
Does the ass attention get crazy for you?
If my butt can get me famous, I’m with J. Lo, I’ll take it. Some people say they’re judging me on my body but I don’t care. I’m proud of my body.
