No real agent will ask you to send in nude photos to get signed. No real agent will "suggest" you sleep with him to get signed. BEWARE OF KEVIN HOLLOMAN !
Do you want to become a B1 Model. It is easier than you think! A handful of models are finally telling the secret to their success!
It begins with getting scouted by a man named Kevin Holloman. Kevin Holloman will ask the "wannabe" model to send naked photos to his personal e-mail address. Some of the males that were signed with him also stated Kevin would meet aspiring models at local clubs like Splash in New York. One male model stated he felt like Kevin slipped him a roofy.
If you notice the ratio of female and male models, it's simply because the agent, Kevin Holloman sleeps with all the male models. Talk about having the "right look"
Some of the male models are not even of legal age yet. The truth is finally coming to surface.

Kevin Holloman was terminated as an agent for B1 on December 8th of last year, 4 months before this malicious report was written. Unfortonately, following his termination, several of the models have come forward with accounts of Mr. Holloman in the 2 months directly preceding his termination that were very similar to this. On behalf of B1, I deeply apologize for all of his actions, and I can assure you B1 acted quickly one this was realized and intends to pursue legal action against Mr. Holloman and more Since it was formed in March 2008, B1 has always been under the direction of agent Wil Hill, who's been consistently highly respected within the fashion industry for over 25 years. B1 brought Kevin Holloman on due to his charisma and social skills that were highly effective in recruiting very marketable high-fashion models, most of whom Wil Hill and B1 booked on jobs with top designers. It wasn't until December of last year that some of these improprieties it came to light when I investigated why Mr. Holloman hadn't booked a single modeling job in over 2 months for any of our 80 signed models, and by auditing email to and from the computer in our office, found that during those 2 months he had done nothing but use the agency as his personal dating service during all of October and November.

I was the owner of "B1 Models" from its inception in 2006 until February of 2008. Kevin worked at the company during this period. I also knew Kevin from before then while he worked for several other NYC model agencies. In all the time he worked for me, I never received one complaint of harrasment by a model. No complaints were ever reported against him at the previous agencies he worked at. None of the B1 models I have talked with over the years ever said they were unsuitably propositioned by Kevin. Kevin worked part-time at Splash and it is unsurprising that he would meet models there. Fashionable New York nightclubs are a pretty obvious place to talent scout models. Anyone entering a NYC nightclub who is under-age must have used a fake Id. Kevin certainly didn't control the door policy. Arbitrary references like "Some of the males that were signed with him also stated" are meaningless and invalid without a reasonable reference. Who did they state this to? The reason for the ratio of male models to female models at B1 is a reflection of the young age of the agency, the direction the agency was INTENDED to take and the challenges facing any comparitively new agency. Anyone who has REAL knowledge of the modelling industry will understand this approach. Kevin Holloman left B1 Models at the end of 2008 to progress his career at a long-established, well-known agency. This "report" was filed March 26th of this year, 3 months after he left B1. The original report seems to have been made out of malicious spite.
