Call to action: Should ‘hot mugshot’ felon Jeremy Meeks get a modelling gig?

Jeremy Meeks may still be behind bars, but that’s not stopping him from using his good looks to his advantage.

According to ABC News, the convicted felon, whose mugshot recently went viral for being really, really ridiculously good looking, has landed a big Hollywood agent and a modelling gig.

“Jeremy has an amazing look and has received international attention which I feel can only help him flourish in the entertainment industry,” says Gina Rodriguez, who has worked with the Lohans and Nadaya “Octomom”

If all goes as planned, Rodriguez says Meeks could make up to $100,000 a month.

Unsurprisingly, the dreamy criminal’s new career venture is already sparking debate online.

“This guy is getting praise for his good looks but is a criminal. Is this what the world has come to?,” writes one Yahoo Canada user.

“Since when is looks more important than character? Oh, I forgot in this turned upside down society,” adds another.

So, we want to know: What do you think of Meeks’s new gig? Do you think he’s being rewarded solely for his good looks, despite being a convicted felon? Or do you think he deserves a second chance? Sound off in the comments.
