The “Hot Felon” Jeremy Meeks makes his NY Fashion Week debut
Back in 2014, everyone went crazy for Jeremy Meeks after his mugshot on the Stockton Police Department’s Facebook page went viral, raking in over 101K likes.
Overnight, his smoldering good looks turned him into a quasi-folk hero, despite a lengthy rap sheet spanning a decade that includes weapons and “street terrorism” charges, as well as participation in a 2002 robbery in which he allegedly beat a 16-year-old “to a pulp.”
In 2007, he was charged with identity theft, resisting arrest, and trying to steal a package of pellets from a sporting goods store.
Now, in 2017, the 33-year-old is… charging the runways of New York?
Meeks was seen strutting his stuff at the Philipp Plein show for New York Fashion Week on Monday night, in front of an audience that included Paris Hilton, Madonna, Young Thug, and gibbering fame-gremlin Kylie Jenner.

February 16, 13:01Is it just me or is this guy not worth all these tantrums? Maybe it’s a technique to keep him in check. By making him engage in something decent, his criminal days would be long history cos I don’t see what the fuss about his looks is all about?
He is just there abeg.
Or maybe it’s just me. *shrugs*
