In early May of 2002, I brought several of my model friends to this open call at Jean Pierre International. After speaking on the phone with "Jean Pierre" himself, he gave me the impression of a legitimate business.

When we arrived at his "house", we saw accountants filing tax returns and models storming out of his office. He then sat us down and explained that he had a modeling school that charged $300.00 to each aspiring model/actress. He insisted that his company was legitimate but had no proof, no web-site, no portfolio, nothing.

But we noticed fake certifications on the walls showing that he was an accountant. We also requested the name of his web-site and he claimed that it was "under construction". He also claimed that he had models in the Middle East that were making $100.000 dollars a day because of his so called "school".

After being pressured and lied to, we stormed out of his house on Fulton Street and he yelled, "we were wasting his time". His advertisement has been posted in the SF Weekly for several years and listed in the yellow pages as well.

But now when I go to look for it, the name has changed to Jean Pierre Company CPO. I also called the phone number and the business recording is no longer Jean Pierre International Modeling.

This is a very sketchy, fraudulent business of whatever sort. I would advise anyone to be very cautious!

All of you that are making this report on Jean Pierre are full of it. My name is Eric Bell and I DARE you to say anything to me. Ive known JeanPiere for over 30 years and ther IS NOTHING WRONG WITH HIM OR HIS BUSINESS. you are all liars. He has an upstanding business and he is outstanding. He is connected with Hal Jacksons Talented Teens Pagents.  He also conducts The Puerto Rican festival every year in Pena Adobe/ Vacaville, Ca. It's always off the hook. So unless you got the money to be trained by his institution.....then step off. talk about him again and deal with me and my company//2-Smooth Entertainment INC.

Jeanpierre Int'l Models vs. Jeanpierre & Co. CPAs

AUTHOR: Blkcontroller - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, June 09, 2008

I used to work for Jeanpierre & Co. CPAs. It appears that no one is aware that Jeanpierre International Models and Jeanpierre & Co. CPAs are two separate businesses. I'd like to set the record straight. Jeanpierre & Co. is a legitimate CPA (Certified Public Accountant) firm located in San Francisco. It was located in a large house on Fulton Street for many years but has since changed locations. The owner of the modeling agency leased space from the accounting firm. The two businesses are not related and anyone seeking to report Jeanpierre International Models should not confuse with the accounting firm which has a long standing reputation in the Bay Area.
