With cheekbones like Jessica’s, it’s hard not to envy her. Jessica “Evil” Eye was born in Akron, Ohio. She credits the car accident she was in when she was 16 with creating her drive toward success in mixed martial arts. Eye modeled for “Cosmopolitan” and discussed how her upbringing led her to become a fighter.
Eye has made her way into popular culture multiple times; she was referenced in a re-mixed version of the song “Till I Die” By Machine Gun Kelly and was featured in “Pressure Life.” She has a strong social media presence with 164K followers on Instagram.
Felice Herrig
She's beauty, she's grace, she'll punch you in the face. With nearly half a million followers on Instagram, it comes as no surprise that MMA fighter Felice Herrig is on this list. She has one of the best bodies in the business and isn’t shy about showing it off either. With her beautiful small features, it's surprising to discover all the muscle on this woman!
The kickboxer, Muay Thai fighter, and mixed martial artist competes in the UFC strawweight division. Herrig is a playable figure in the video game Supremacy MMA for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and in 2015 appeared in "American Ninja Warrior."
Leilani Mitchell
Leilani Mitchell is an American-Australian professional basketball player for the Washington Mystics of the WNBA. In 2019, Mitchell became the first WNBA player to win the Most Improved Player award for the second time.
In 2018, Leilani's partner, WNBL basketball player Mikaela Dombkins, gave birth to the couple's son, Kash Maxwell, and in 2022, the couple welcomed a baby daughter named Elle into this world. We wonder if the kids will grow up to play basketball as well. When both parents do it professionally it seems like the kids have to at least give it a shot. (No pun intended.)
Natasha Hastings
The gorgeous New Yorker Natasha Hastings is a track and field sprinter. She began her career at a very young age and won first place in the 400 meters in the Youth Girls division at the USATF Junior Olympics. While attending the University of South Carolina, she became known as "the 400M diva" after describing the ladies' track team as the "Gamecock Divas" in honor of the college's mascot.
Hastings has a YouTube channel, to which she posts behind-the-scenes footage of her races, preparation, and workout. She also has a series called "Tea Time," in which she talks about everything from dating to mental preparation with fellow athletes and friends.
Whitney Miller
This blonde beauty is a multi-talented athlete that’s mastered the art of more than one sport – among other things. She got her start in the industry during college when she began her professional wakeboarding career. In 2012, she entered and won the Miss United States pageant, alongside her athletic competitions.
Afterward, she started training in kickboxing, and later Jiu-Jitsu, in which she went on to earn a black belt. Wow, we are getting tired just reading about all of it. Calling this woman competitive would be an understatement. Talk about being an overachiever! Is there anything this woman can’t do?
