'Hottest prisoner' released, set to debut modelling career

After a criminals cute mug shot went viral years ago, Jeremy Meeks has reportedly been freed from jail and is set to start up a modelling career, thanks to the reactions to his mug shot.

Jim Jordan, Meeks agent and manager, revealed that Meeks was released on Tuesday morning from the Mendota Federal Correctional Institution in Northern California.


Meeks had also been welcomed by his wife, Melissa, their three children and Jordan, much to disappointment of the female fans he amassed with his mug shot.

Jordan reveals that a modeling agent at White Cross Management in Los Angeles has been calling non stop with offers from the world’s “top five designers,” as well as TV producers.

Although he declined mentioning any names, Jordan says:

“We were bombarded by every news media outlet and production company out there."

Jordan added that Meeks had put in a lot of time in preparing for his close up, doing 500 sit-ups and 500 push-ups in his cell every day.

“We have a huge plans for him. A lot is about to happen. We don’t want to announce it at the moment, but we have some incredible stuff coming that will blow everyone away.”

The agent also reveals that Meeks is not allowed to talk to the press and is to spend the next month in a transition house, but expects him to take over the modelling world as soon as he's out.

Jordan added:

“The world responds to beautiful things. Jeremy is a beautiful thing. His striking looks [are] the first thing we noticed. His appeal got the attention of the world.

"Jeremy has piercing gray-blue eyes, they’re shaped like almonds and he has a beautiful bone structure. He’s 6-feet-1-inches tall, which is the perfect height for a male model, and he has an incredible body.

“I think Jeremy Meeks is already a supermodel without ever appearing in any magazines.”
