As much as we love when models are more than just models (almost all of the girls on this list are), the reason we know about them remains that they are paid to look sexy in front of a camera. And although each and every one of these ladies has been in a professional shoot, worked with professional photographers, and been all dolled up, we still enjoy the more personal side the most. That's where Instagram comes in, giving us the insight to see what they see and look at what photos they think are worthy of showing the public. We searched around and found some of the hottest feeds on the photo sharing app, which is now also available on the web. These are The 25 Hottest Import Models on Instagram.

April Joy
Username: thejoyofapril
Her Instagram is accurately titled the Joy of April, and the tens of thousands of fans on her Facebook seem to agree. She was born in the Philippines but grew up in San Diego. Unlike some models, she loves the outdoor hiking scene, which gives her huge points in our book.
Alexia Cortez
Username: alexiacortez
Alexia is the full package. She's a Latina model of Mexican & Mixed European/Cherokee heritage, she graduated valedictorian from high school in Cali, and graduated with honors from USC. Her degree was in pre-med, however, she's one Monster Energy Drink's hottest spokesmodels right now.
Debbie Sath
Username: debbiesath
Debbie was born in Australia (that accent, though ...) and has Cambodian and El Salvadorian parents. She's intelligent, too, as she has also built herself a career as a banker.
Molly Truong
Username: momari_est
When we named Molly one of the hottest 25 import models right now, she released this photo. Hopefully, she'll release another, when she sees we included her on this list as well.
Nikita Esco
Username: nikitaesco
Her mother was a famous actress, singer, dancer and model in Taipei, Taiwan and was the one that originally got Nikita into modeling. Mama really does know best.
Ela Pasion
Username: misselapasion
Ela might have done more work in the past two years than anybody on this list, and she's not even 23 years old yet.
Natalie Eva-Marie
Username: natalieevamarie
Natalie has modeled for Red Chapter Clothing, has been on America’s Got Talent with Taio Cruz, and made an appearance on CSI: New York. The Mexican/Italian beauty was actually really slow into the social media game (she had neither a Facebook nor a Twitter for a long time), but thankfully, she's graced the Internet with her presence on Instagram.
Erica Ocampo
Username: ericaocampo
Like many others in the import model scene, Erica used her auto shoots to launch her modeling into other niches. MAXIM even caught wind and gave her her own cover for the Indonesian edition of the mag.
Catherine Siera
Username: catherinesiera
If you've ever watched any of the Lingerie Football League Super Bowls, you might have seen the rough and tough side of Catherine, but she knows how to work the camera in the best way. Also, for anybody that cares, she once told Import Tuner mag, "Lambos are junk. And I don’t really like convertibles. The Ferrari F430 Scuderia pwns anything Lambo makes."
Loni Kai
Username: lonikai
In addition to her gigs with cars, Loni also won the BAMMA Ring Girl Search and a Twilight Fight Night Ring Girl Bikini Contest in 2011. She's also got pictures of her and previously mentioned Debbie Sath on her Instagram, which is a dream tuner tandem if we've ever seen one.
Holly Lee
Username: hollyxlee
We're going to try asking her if she wants to be our Valentine this year. She's asking for it, after all. Wish us luck.
Levy Tran
Username: misslevy
The fact that she's one of the rare girls that can make an excessive amount of tats looks fantastic excuses the fact that she drives a Toyota Corolla. Want to be her boyfriend? Just be funny, kind, humble, generous, giving, loyal, confident, assertive, and helpful.
Eva Skye
Username: evaskye
She's a TV host, she's a go-go dancer, and she's a spokesmodel. Sound like something you want to do? Just be a gorgeous girl with an infectious personality, and you've got the job.
Kristy-Lei Juan
Username: kristyleijuan
Kristy-Lei is Japanese, Chinese, Hawaiian, Spanish, Filipino, Mexican, 24 years old, lives in Hawai'i, and is a hair and makeup artist. Sounds like any import mag's dream come true.
Joselyn Cano
Username: Joselyncano
For anybody that is ashamed of online dating, don't be. The gorgeous Joselyn Cano that you see above has done it. Unfortunatley for her, she was on the poor end of the date, as the guy was pretty good at Photoshop. As for her looks? She doesn't even have to go to a gym to maintain that figure anymore. Oh, and she drives a BMW 3-Series.
Sandra Wong
Username: officialsandrawong
Sandra already picked up the top spots as Ms. M FEST 2012 and Ms. Super Street 2012 and is already on the January 2013 cover of Super Street. Her future photoshoots are definitely one of many reasons we're glad the world didn't come to a screeching halt.
Arika Sato
Username: arikasato
Unlike some of the sideline reporters we always see on TV (shots!) Arika was actually trained for her craft, after going to USC for a master's degree in broadcast journalism. Born in Cali to Japanese parents, Arika has turned that degree into becoming a Youtube partner with her own channel.
Ashley Vee
Username: msashleyvee
This beautiful Filipina model has done more than 100 go-go dancing gigs, more than 60 car shows, and hosted more than 20 events, all while practicing to be a nurse. Sounds like she's got a solid backup plan.
Melyssa Grace
Username: melyssagrace
The fact that Melyssa Grace actually steps out of her bikini and into a racing suit to compete in drift competitions gives her a level hotness that an extremely small percentage of models could ever achieve.
Janey B
Username: hello_janey
She loves Tosh.0, Saved By The Bell, and Game of Thrones, and the Time Crisis arcade game, therefore, we automatically love her. She's also got 11 years of classically trained piano playing to boast about. Models with depth >.
Melissa Riso
Username: realmelissariso
Melissa had her busiest year yet in 2012, finding spots in Vivio Wellness,
Koncept Magazine, Car Craft Magazine, a Patron Golf Event, Super StreetBike Mag, Import Tuner Mag, T.I.T.S. Brand, and Wallgirl.com. She also started dipping her toes into acting more, getting hired to do commercials, music videos, short films, and a couple TV shows. At 5’2” with 34C-24-34 measurements, it's hard to believe this Northern California could be stopped from achieving her dream of becoming a Bond girl.
Danielle Lo
Username: daniellelo
Believe it or not, Danielle was actually one of the people behind the scenes, as she was styling other models at one point. That was until people began looking at her and asking, "why the hell are you not the one in front of that camera?" She's been modeling for four years since and is starting to become a regular on the broadcast and spokesmodel scene.
Dannie Riel
Username: DannieRiel
This 24-year-old Chinese/French beauty was born in British Columbia and began venturing into the import scene on Sport Compact Nights. These days, she stays busy with a variety of modeling gigs and maintaining her Youtube channel "The Riel World," on which she does things like rap Eazy-E. Our kind of girl.
