Having already profiled models Rob, Ocean, Charlotte, BB and Jay from Dirty Sexy Things’, we’re now checking out the classic looking Jesse.

Cambridge boy Jesse Burgess is the youngest model in the show at just 19 – not that you’d know, ahem, Jay.

Having only been modelling since he completed his A-levels less than two years ago, the mature-for-his-age teen model has already racked up an impressive list of modelling jobs.

He’s shot editorials for GQ Style, Wonderland, Monocle, Tatler ‘Bright Young Things’ and has worked with clients including French Connection, Lacoste, and Jack Wills. He has also walked for fashion heavyweights Elliott J Frieze, E.Tautz and Moschino in shows across Europe’s capitals.

Modelling has opened up some great opportunities for Jesse. Having always been interested in acting – he had cameos in Silent Witness and Eastenders when he was younger – Jesse has now been asked to work as a presenter, something which he’s done before as the lead Jack Wills presenter for 2010. This multi-talented model also spends much of his time writing and performing his own songs with indie soul band Lux.

But back to the modelling – what has Jesse’s favourite shoot been so far? “We do a shoot on this series in Iceland which was really fun. The environment was ‘ridonkulous’.”

And his proudest achievement in life so far? “My friend called me up when he saw my face on the side of a bus once which was cool. But I think walking for Moschino in Milan was pretty sick.”

Dirty Sexy Things airs on Mondays at 10pm on E4, but if you’re like us and can’t wait to hear more from this model, then follow Jesse on Twitter @jesse_burgess.
