Is John Casablancas a scam?

Question:NO. OMG i DON'T KNOW WHY EVERYONE SAYS iT iS BECAUSE i GO TO John Casablancas and It's a school to teach you technics on how to act and model. You have to pay for that...it's not gonna be free...now, it is an agency but you need to start out paying money to them, and then when you get a job...like an acting job...then you get paid 85 dollars an hour!! Trust me, you can't say i am wrong because i go there. And when people say.."oh yeah it's a scam my daughter NEVER got an acting job and we invested so much money in that!" well, maybe they did but not everyone is going to get an acting job. not everyone who wants to be famous can be famous....people have to understand that....is there anyone with me on that? Or do you all disagree? But sorry, i just really don't understand why everyone thinks that they are gonna be famous when they walk into the doors of an agency...by the way feel free to email me and tell me your opinions! Sorry bout the REALLY long body!! haha:)

From all I've ever heard Casablancas is one of THE top agencies in the city(and The Better Business Bureau has never had a problem with them)I didn't use them myself,I went to another agency.But you're right.Walking in the door is no guarantee off sucsess and anyone who tells you that is a liar.It's a training ground,a school,basically and you pay to be taught,like a private school.Forget the naysayers,or can't you recognize bitterness and frustration when you hear it?:-)

So...what's your question?

Then you keep payin' 'em, hon. Can't wait to hear about all the people at the JC you go to who are going out on those $85/hour acting jobs. Not that they pay by the hour for acting jobs, but hey, you've got it figured out, dontcha...

You are not supposed to answer your own questions. No reputable agency requires you to take classes or tries to sell you anything or requires payment of any kind. SCAM, dearie.
