When I was 18 I decided to take my modeling career to the next level and to get an agency. At that time a model name Angel Lola Luv was very big in music videos and she was everywhere. I looked to see what agency she was under and it said "Style Entertainment" (that was their name at the time). I sent my pictures in and Mike (who is the agent and photographer of the company) wanted to have an interview with me. I went in for the interview and everything went smooth. UNTIL he told me I needed better pictures and i needed to shoot with him for $750. Like an idiot I paid it and shot with him. The shoot wwas scheduled for 11am. Mike didnt show up til 12pm. Their were other girls there for the shoot as well. One girl that was there was with them for a while and she said that he's always late. During my bathing suit shoot, I was posing with my back towards the camera as I look back. Posing like that caused rolls on my back, so I asked Mike how I can get rid of them, MEANING what type of excersises I could do to tone up. He told me to ask Michelle (who is also an agent there) when I am done with my shoot. After the shoot I went in her office and asked her what can I do to get rid of them, she actually gave me a number to a PLASTIC SURGEON FOR LIPOSUCTION!!. Now I am 118 LBS measurements 33-25-35. I assure you I dont need LIPOSUCTION. I thought of Angel Lola. I'm not sure if you know who Angel is but she has gotten alot done. Breast and Butt injections. She doesnt look like a normal person. Well I didnt call the surgeon because I just felt like I just need to tone up and hit the gym. A couple weeks later Michelle calls me and tells me to come in for my model evaluation. When I came in, they didnt even know why I was there! They looked at me like I had a 3rd eye. I sat at that office for 20 mins waiting for them to "evaluate" me. Finally, Michelle called me in her office and she was cold as ice. She didnt even look at me the entire time. She threw me a teeth whiting card saying that I need to invest in myself. WTF! I invested in myself when I paid $750 for that shoot! After that was over, I got another call saying to come in for the Model Orientation. I drove 2 hrs for this on a sunday and sat there for 2 hrs and he never showed up. Other models were there as well, one with her mom because she was only 15. Her mom was pissed to high heavens and called Mike's phone repeatly and leaving messages saying he was very umprofessional. So I went home. I got a call from Mike again reschduling the Orientation, not even an apology. I drove 2 hrs AGAIN for this "orientation" and waited there for an hr for it to begin! During this orientation they stressed being on time. WHAT!? DID I HEAR CORRECTLY! Also they stressed that "things happen". Thats why we were sitting outside the office for hours because "things happen" well now that makes me feel so much better and that I dont feel like I was scammed out of hundreds of dollars! THANK YOU SO MUCH! but wait! I didnt get to the fun part yet! They told me that I had to a pay $95 annual fee for being on the website. I know this is a standard charge but I was on the website for 2 weeks then I was taken off. WHY?! I called them to ask them what was the issue because I paid my money. They told me that they were having an issue with the website and it would be back up running in no time. It never was and I am not paying $95 again for me NOT to be on the site. I was scammed out of $95. Then they emailed me my comp card that i am soppose to get printed myself and my stats are wrong. I called and told them this and they said that they were going to fix it. Of course, they never did. They never even asked me my stats! How are you going to put it on my comp card! I have been with this agency for a year. NO WORK! I got an email saying that there was a casting for g unit in NY the next day. This was at 2am of the casting. They do that alot, they call you about a casting just hours before thinking that you have to drop everything and go. A REAL AGENCY DOESNT DO THAT! I went to the casting that started at 2pm. I called the agency to tell them that I am there and they told me not to go in yet and to wait for Mike because he knows G Unit personally and it would better my chances. Ok well if it better my chances then I'll wait a couple mins. Other models from the agency was there and I met new friends so that was a plus. 3pm comes...NO MIKE...4pm comes...NO MIKE. I started to see the other girls come out from the casting and I started to get worried. 5pm comes here pulls up Mike. Better our chances my behind! The casting directors were so pissed off that we were late they didnt even look at us! I mean they were pissed! of course we didnt get picked. I had it with this agency! i am no longer with this agency! THANK THE LORD! I am now 22 years old and with a REAL agency in NY and I have gotten WORK and castings in a month of being signed with them. I have been in magazines and I will be in NY's fashion week. I didnt have to spend any money but the web fee, and YES I am on there! Style Elite could NEVER DO THAT. THEY SUCK!!! If you like throwing your money away then sign with them! thank you for your time and be careful!

rip off
Paul Roberts told my sister and i, that we could become international model he promised us that we could be in the dolly magazine and do bridle wear go up on bill boards go to other country's and states eg england, USA, Paris and also Sydney. so we got excited as he said he would do all that for us. before we Evan started he got about $2000 because "we were sisters" and he wanted more but we could pay him later. so we sighned an contract for 2 years. but as soon as we started he took about 10-15 photos of us each every time and we only went for 3 times, we had to pay to get out nails done, to get out cloths do out own make up and get our shoes. after he promised all that he told my sister to be ready and pack to go away in 3 days to Sydney, after he said that my mum tried to call him and ask him what was happening he turned around and said "she is not tall enough" mum tryed calling him so many times but would not pick up and his excuse was he was in a middle of an photo shoot mum called and called till he finally picked up. mum asked him what was going on with the kids modeling and he just kept telling her to bring us in so we can have more shoots but when we got there he just used to sit us in his little office and used to talk about his own experiences in life (house in docklands, his girl friends et) he was all talk. he was just a waist of time and money for us.. and he just embarrassed us in front of everyone. after all that my mum called him and told him that she wants the money back because he had not done one thing for us and he said she can go and complain about him but she will never get the money back again and mum is sick and she couldnt go and do anything about it but since we have read about the stuff others have written mum is ready to make a complain...
