ROBBED: London model firm Premier Models Management gets raided!

Wow, and to think I was just sitting in the office of these fierce folks about a month ago in regards to representation interest. As of now, it might not be such a bad idea that I didn't end up signing a contract with them :/. Check it out what I read in the London Evening Standard yesterday:

"Celebrities may have had their persona details stolen by thieves who broke into the London offices of a modeling agency. The gang raided Premier Model Management in Covent Garden which represents Myleene Klass, Nadine Coyle, Kelly Brook, Lisa Snowden and Holly Valance.

There are fears that stolen documents could reveal home addresses, bank details and phone numbers. Thousands of pounds' of jewelry and valuables were also taken on February 16th. A spokesman for the firm said: "Four masked men battered their way into the safe, which contained some highly confidential documents and a quantity of valuables."
         A company insider told the Daily Mirror: "We don't know exactly how much information the thieves got hold of yet but we're worried it could include really personal details about our biggest clients. Some of the information we store can be very sensitive and concerns some very well known fashion and modeling personalities, so the most confidential documents are always kep under lock and key in a safe at the office. "Somehow the thieves managed to force their way into our safe so everyone here is now on maximum alert about what we keep hold of and shredding anything that isn't needed." A police spokesman said: "There was a burglary at 2:49am on February 16 at the premises on Parker Street. Camden burglary squad is investigating and there have been no arrests." -Peter Dominiczak


Interesting story yet it definitely has my eyebrows raised higher then a horses hamstring. I mean think about it,who the hell just robs a modeling agency? Sounds like the Premier Models office will be rather tense for a few weeks. Aspiring models, don't even bother hitting their open call for quite a while.

...and so much for our friend Naomi Campbell collecting all that un-paid royalty's she was supposedly suing them for. 


Holla,
Triumph
