Jeremy Meeks, once dubbed the “world’s hottest felon,” has come a long way since his arrest in 2014. His striking mugshot, posted by the Stockton Police Department, quickly went viral due to his piercing blue eyes and chiseled features, gaining tens of thousands of likes and launching an unexpected celebrity career.
Before his fame, Meeks endured a difficult childhood surrounded by addiction and violence. After serving 27 months in prison for firearm possession, he was released in 2016 and signed with White Cross Management. Since then, he has walked runways for top designers like Philipp Plein and Tommy Hilfiger and appeared in films such as Trigger and True to the Game 2 and 3.
At 41, Meeks is now a polished figure in fashion and entertainment, having also launched his own clothing line and written an autobiography. He remains focused on his career and personal growth, embracing a new path after a troubled past.
