I do not know what is wrong with you people thinking that you have been scammed. JRP has never promised anyone anything other than they would help train you or your child in preparation for the modeling and acting business. I really Like JRP and would recommend it to anyone but you have to be willing to work hard to succeed. Just like any career you have to go to school and learn before you can go out and work. I think you should go back and read your
contracts because nothing is easy. My child has been with JRP for about 7 weeks and has already had 3 agent interviews, so I do not understand why anyone would say
thay it does not happen.
Good luck if you think you can make it without the middle man.

This is an acting. modeling SCHOOL. You oay for experienced teachers, just as you would for anyone else who is a professional that teaches PRIVATE lessons. They didn't tell me my son was a star or would be, they talked about his potential, what they offered and what to expect. Nothing has been a lie yet and I was not born yesterday. I am a 15 year Army signal veteran. I worked for Generals and ran a 24 hr operations center. Read the contracts and listen to what they are saying, don't get angry when it doesn't happen the way you want.

Well I just enrolled my son and the way I look at it, Is if it cost me $2000 for my son just to get the training for 30 wks its worth it for the future and at least he'll have some experience in acting and modeling. Us adults will blow that $2000 on clothes shoes or something petty so why not spend it on 30 wks of knowledge!!!

yes yes yes! thank you! I am an employee at JRP and a Barbizon Graduate and you are right, there are no promises and you have to invest in your craft, it's just like paying for a guitar, paying the instructor, why? because you're child wants to become a rockstar...get the point? NO SCAM!
