Internet Sensation Jeremy Meeks who had his mug-shot picture go viral has landed a major modelling contract even as he still in jail awaiting trial. Well known model agent Gina Rodriguez signed Meeks as one of her controversial clients which include Teen Mom cum Porn star Farrah Abraham, Racist Donald Sterling’s former mistress V. Stiviano and ‘Octomom’ Nadya Suleman. She spoke of the convict and said: “Jeremy has an amazing look and has received international attention which I feel can only help him flourish in the entertainment industry. He could make somewhere between $3,000 to $100,000 per month through endorsements and modeling.
We’re also speaking with several production companies about following Jeremy’s foray into the entertainment industry. I believe this can be a positive change for Jeremy and his family” Rodriguez told ABC News. Meeks has been charged with 11 felony counts which involve street gang membership and possession of firearms and can only meet bail if he drops $1.1 million.
