Hi My daughter is 13 years old and is a model and future actress and I went to a talent scout and it was a RIP OFF!-totally scam My daughter is African-American and no offense but the only kids she chose were whites and Latinos. The only black children she took were the ones with the wild curly hair. I will defiantly not go back to Adorable Talent scouts scam again! Now the only way my daughter feels like she will be picked is if she has curly hair[which she can have, naturally]. Please help, no discrimination with these agencies please! Also these agency just waiste your time and your money totally scam jessica adorable talent.
Thanks
My daughter did a shoot with Jessica and she was very sweet, patient and gave her tips to help her be comfortable. That same day she took one of the pictures and sent to her client Gap and we went on a audition the text day! She got a callback and well but she was a little too small but they said they would definitely be using her in the near future!
I personally had a an encounter with this "Adorable Talent Scam" and I advise any and every parent to stay far away! This lady puts on Instagram that she is searching for new talent however when she emails you she tells you there are no start up fees to be considered HOWEVER there is a 200 - 300 dollar fee to shoot with her photography (mind you she is the one taking the photos and sometimes gets inexperienced photographers) I personally spoke with a couple of parents after the shoot with her and at least two different parents said she charged them something different! Long story short the photos were HORRENDOUS not to mention she was never forth coming in terms of "IF" she was going to represent every kid that paid for those services or not... A REAL TALENT MANAGER OR AGENCY DOES NOT CHARGE ANYTHING THEY CAN RECOMMEND PROFESSIONAL PHOTOS BUT THEY DO NOT CHARGE YOU ANYTHING! BE CAREFUL!

I was bit skeptical when I first heard about Adorable Talent. The skepticism came by way of a kiosk that promised to put my Daughter Kiani Rose on the Map, when she was barely walking. However like most, nothing materialized. A couple of years ago a friend told me about Jessica and I decided heck why not. I attended her Workshop and a few weeks later got the necessary headshots. Next thing I know my daughter was receiving casting calls. She landed several paid gigs and modeled in time square got her 15 minutes on the Kitty walk and even a spot on Sesame Stree which aired on HBO. My daughter built her resume quickly thanks to adorable talent but My daughter's heart was not in it. It became all to obvious when Jessica got her an interview with Wilhelmina (I believe that's the spelling). Her grandmother who had been the one taking her to her bookings and casting calls called me and said, She is refusing to take off her jacket and has a bad attitude. I got on the phone and Kiani said. Dad I don't want to do this anymore. I said ok and that was that. Incredibly to this day Jessica checks in with me to see if Kiani wants to start back up, going as far as offering her free headshots. But my daughter is still not ready.
So a few things of note, make sure your kid wants to do it. Second, just because they are beautiful or special they must be outgoing. Third, you will get out of it what you put in. If you are not willing to go to the casting calls at a moments notice than this is not for you. With all of that being said, if YOU and your kid have what it takes, Adorable Talent will help get you there by knocking on every door possible on your behalf.
Sincerely,
Izzy S
Jessica And her AdorableTalent team are scam artists. First off she charged me 450 for the photo shoot, that was supposed to include hair and wardrobe. Well the only thing see did with the hair was use her hand to lay it down, then she only brought two outfits that didn't fit. My daughter had to squeeze into one of them and use her own outfit that she came in. She was late to the shoot, and can you really call it a shoot without all the proper equipment. Then I was told the pictures were going to be up on the site for me to view, I didn't see the pictures till two months later and I was very disappointed in them. Mind you I asked for my money back before I even seen the pictures because I wasn't satisfied with how the photo shoot went, and how long it took her and her team to respond to any questions I may have. Now we never signed a contract and their was no receipt given saying that I couldn't be refunded if not satisfied so I'm still waiting on my 450 dollars that she's going to different countries and spending it on instead and not getting my child no work.
