Salieu Jalloh is 18 years old and I found him walking on Broadway in lower Manhattan. He's totally amazing....in just two months of modeling he's done 7 runway show, shot 3 major magazines and just last week shot the FW08 Ad campaign for Benetton with superstar photographer David Sims and top stylist Karl Temple. I start most guys between 16 to 18 yrs old.......I'm a tiny bit good at what I do and yes! I know my industry...so if I feel a 15 year old boy is amazing and has all the right qualities....I will sign him without a doubt. The question for those who don't know the industry is "wow! can guys start modeling at such a young age?" then wait for an answer from an expert like myself.......Yes!!!

Thank you so much for stopping by and telling me more about Mr. Jalloh. I've been hanging out at Red blogspot and am heartened and delighted by the many beautiful people you've signed. Particularly the people of color/nonwhites.
I hope they're getting lots of work and are making themselves and you $$$$.
