Vida Guerra Goes Low In New TV Gig

Sexy Mag Model To Host SPEED's Lowrider Lifestyle Program

(CBS)  Cuban-born glamour model Vida Guerra is exploring the world of lowriders - the cars, not the jeans - in a new TV show on the SPEED network.

Guerra will be hosting "Livin' the Low Life," a weekly program that will look at a culture built around custom cars that can ride low to the ground or be raised up and down at will thanks to a modified suspension system.

According to Guerra, making the transition from model and hip-hop vixen to TV host wasn't that difficult.

"With 'Low Life,' I'm just being myself ... hanging out and having fun," said Guerra in a statement Monday. "If there was something new for me it was that I had to learn about the cars by asking a lot of questions. So, I'm actually speaking for the audience. From my questions I hope that people will learn to appreciate not only the cars but also the people who build them."

Guerra's curvaceous figure and famously ample bottom made her an instant hit when she appeared in a photo spread in men's lifestyle magazine FHM in 2002. She went on to become the magazine's model of the year in 2004, and has appeared in music videos by Nelly and Diddy, and on "The Chappelle Show."

Lowrider culture developed in Mexican-American communities throughout California, Texas and the southwest in the late 1930s and developed into a full-fledged lifestyle by the 1970s that included music and fashion.

"Livin' The Low Life" is set to premiere on SPEED on Feb. 21, 2008.

Nothing worse than a flat derriere. Who wants to sleep with a toothpick? Do you, Sir?
