'He told girls, 'I can take you places''

November 14, 2008
Chris Hulbert, one of Jon's former publicists, revealed that his former client had made advances to his 19-year-old date, asking her to have sex with him.

A source said that the designer used to lure girls by telling them he will make them famous, but never fulfilled his claims.

"He will tell girls, 'I can take you places,' and the girls see the photographers following him around, and they would believe him because he was friends with Paris. But they were totally duped," a source said.

A former friend said that New York based Jon loved to flaunt his press clippings to people in parties that he attended. "He would carry around a press book with all his clippings and show it to people at parties," the friend said.

However, Ronald Richards, Jon's lawyer said that it is not unusual for a celebrity to self promote. "All up-and-coming celebrities try to promote themselves. It's not inconsistent with other young up-and-coming celebs to self-promote," Richards said.
