yes as far as I know he also represents simon dexter a porn star, this also the same story with Ryan Colby and famous legendary photographer Bruce Weber and Rick Day, the gay men shoot their models for ads such as Abercombie & otehrs and when they are alone they are taken advantage of and if they do not put out they are fired from the jobs! I dont understand why people allow these men to work in the modeling world its terrible to see these poor kids with a dream then these men use the as escort .

yes as far as I know he also represents simon dexter a porn star, this also the same story with Ryan Colby and famous legendary photographer Bruce Weber and Rick Day, Terry Richardson, the gay men shoot their models for ads such as Abercombie & Ralph Lauren Gucci & gay mens magazines and when they are alone they are taken advantage of they give them drugs or alcohol and if they do not put out they are fired from the jobs! I dont understand why people allow these men to work in the modeling world its terrible to see these poor kids with a dream then these men use the as escort, So Please parents spread the word also beware of big modeling conventions they are a scam ! if your child really wants to be a model all they need is a polaroid of them and send it to the agency by e-mail or mail it to the new faces division, You do not need a modeling portfolio or classes, many of these school especially John Robert Power nad Barbizon and others lie to these kids and they take thousands of dollars of them telling them they can be a star ! so say no to IMTA MMAI Or IPOP don't be taken for a ride with your money or dont sell your child to an agency to make them a prostitue ! GOD bles everyone in the wacky dirty modeling world . Amen .

This sounds like a good book but not how agencies in NYC really work. Sounds like someone with a grudge using the internet to lie and slander innocent people. If this was true goto the police and file a report. I call your bluff.

This is all true! I was model for major for many years. And I've seen this happen time and time again. I applaud Jason Kanner's (soulartistmanagement) work as a agent but I don't like him as a person.. Adam Silver and Mike lions (Siver Models) also sell boys for their there own personal benefit and everybody knows. They use photographers Like Rick Day ..Who is the number one perv in the testing world. Also Greg Vaughan is on the list with joseph bleu. As far as photographers that should be banned in NY!
Look up their work in google.. Would you want to trust your teen with pornographers ? The people that would defend these guys shouldn't be trusted.
If you're agent knowing how Rick Day and the others mentioned here are and they still send you to test with them..You Probably should be looking for a new agent instead of a test photographer. I have nothing against models doing nude photographs..
It's part of our job, but with that said. We shouldn't have to be asked personal and sexual questions and have these guys that are old enough to be our fathers make passes at us. As long there is a trust and comfort factor, shoot what you want .. Models should be able to collaborate with their test photographers .. In the end it is the models money.
So I suggest models should be more active in their shoots. TAKE CONTROL without being too controlling. Models are suppose to grow and learn from every shoot experience, staring out with such a negative first impression can scar or even discourage one from achieving their goals. With that said Jason Kanner
and his buddy Bruce Weber will continue to work in this industry unscaved and untarnished . The fashion industry is really at fault for allowing this to continue to happen to the boys and girls.. You and I know that things will never change. So my advice to anyone talking a chance in this industry is.. You have to live with yourself and the decisions you make.
If you want people to respect you stand up for yourself..
NOBODY ELSE WILL!

I do modeling and I was signed with Major on the women's board. I do NOT dispute this. Most agencies/agents/bookers are plain horrible and they will stop at nothing to rip you off(not ALL of them). As far as the 10 people in one apartment... Welcome to modeling! This is not the booker's doing. Every agency is like this so you'd better start reporting them all. A lot of bookers do promoting so they get paid to take underage models to dinner, clubs, etc. and get wasted. It's disgusting. You need leather thick skin and it's still really hard to deal with.

Please be aware of a guy who calls himself KEVIN JONES. He goes through young girls Instagram accounts. Sends them a contract from Major Model Management. As a Manager of a particular girl - I requested an invite on Skype as I had questions - and could see immediately he was a fraud (but a good one). The FBI is onto this guy. Moms and Dads - please be careful with your daughters. He even uses the official contract of Major Model Management. This is his telephone number -

+[protected]

his email (note a gmail address) director.modelling@gmail.com
his skype;
You could him on skype through this link https://join.skype.com/invite/cSe3SOeceSFG

The introductory email is in perfect English - but when I contacted him (prior to calling the real and actual agency) - he uses words like "gonna". And instead of saying please ask any questions - he says "write" and "you not gonna be part of skype procedures".

PLEASE BE AWARE AND FIRST CONTACT THE AGENCY THAT PEOPLE LIKE KEVIN JONES (OR OTHER AKA'S) SAY THEY REPRESENT. Human trafficking is real. Girls getting enticed by con artists land up in prostitution rings and on drugs for life.

KEVIN JONES - KEVIN JONES - KEVIN JONES.

Always compare written communication on different platforms to assess use of language.

whatsapp he sent me a picture of his private parts after I said I would be on Skype with him together with the model.

Kevin Jones contacted me and offered me a contract with Major Model Management with paid work valued up to $27 000. He did not ask me any details about age, height etc, and said he would travel overseas to have a meeting with me to sign the contract. He said that before we start discussing things further, i would have to go through a skype procedure where i would have to be in a bikini and pose for him.

BE AWARE! I wasnt completely sure he was real or not because I havent had that much experience in the modeling world but I ended up doing a skype interview with him and he asked me to take off my clothes and seduce him in exchange for the best of the best. DO NOT FALL FOR IT! If it was a real director you shouldnt have to put yourself through gross men taking advantage of girls with dreams.

Please be careful with this kind of scheme girls, do not believe anything on the internet before making a research, and do not give any information about yourself to strangers guys who says that they work in some modeling agency or whatever. DO NOT BELIEVE IN THIS KAVIN JONES AND REPPORT IF HE GETS IN TOUCH WITH YOU OR ANYONE YOU KNOW.
