Jeremy Meeks is an American model who was born on the 7th day of February 1984. He became popular after his arrest in Stockton, California during a raid organized by a gang called Operation Ceasefire in 2014. As he is common, the cops took his mug shot but the photo made its way onto social media and went viral. Jeremy’s beauty had all the right tongues wagging.

He was arrested on charges of street terrorism as well as the offense of resisting/obstructing justice. He was incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution in Mendota but was released in March 2016, which led him to start his modeling career.
During his 27-month sentence, Meeks was soon to be labeled as the “criminal” in the media and signed to a modeling contract with White Cross Management. During his time behind bars, he was arrested by talent agent Gina Rodriguez. He made an appearance during New York Fashion Week in February 2017, which was later his first show. He made an unprecedented appearance for Vogue magazine, which led to him unsurprisingly being dubbed the “buff bad boy.”
In June 2017, he was invited to the Milan Fashionsemaine which later led him to appear among the models of the Milanese fashion show as an employee of the famous German fashion designer Phillip Plein.
He continued his exploits in Milan in February 2017 with an appearance in August 2017, in a campaign for the Israeli sunglasses fashion house “Carolina Lemke”, which is partly owned by Bar Refaeli, a household name in the Israeli fashion. The campaign duly focused on Meeks’ background, with Rafaeli appearing side-by-side with Meeks. Model Raphaeli showered Meeks with well-deserved praise and applause, saying ‘there has never been such a mix’
