I wonder why MDC hasn't ranked Jon (Noah, RJ, and Ryan B.) as Icons. Jon has got to be the most famous Spanish male model ever!! Starting with his Versace ad (SS04) till all his magazine profile/stories, he is the epitome of timeless appeal. Muy caliente es el Kortajarena!!

i agree niknak he should have been added to the icons list long time ago. is he in the money list?
 
^^To put it bluntly, It's because they are biased morons. The fact that Jon isn't on the icons list is bad enough, but then not having him ranked on the current working models list is just inexcusable. There are guys on that list that haven't reached 1/3 of the success that Jon has. :angry:
 
But I will say Jesse, that him at #6 Money Guys is totally justifiable. What bothers me, is you have Larry Scott still in Icons, but he has kinda been absent. Yes, Larry is LEGENDARY, but if the list is dedicated to WORKING MODELS then his spot fan go to Jon. (Or Noah, or Mathias, RJ, Ryan Burns, etc.) I mean....I JUST DONT GET IT.

^Yeah but if he is on money guys, and is still working constantly, shouldn't he also at least be on the current ranked men as well? If he is making that much money, then he is still working alot more than most of those random newbies on the list.

But either way, I think Jon should be on the icon list now. Heck he is more iconic then half of the icons on the female list :lol:

^Jon should not be ranked in Top 50. He is too big for that. Icon. Point blank. Period.

^Well I agree with that obviously. But if he isn't on the icons list, then he should at LEAST be on the top 50. I think it's pretty obvious that the people at MDC don't like Jon. The second he slowed down last season, they didnt just take him out of the top 10, but off of the list completely.
 
If Jon were on Top 50, I would put him at #2 or #3. I personally think he is bigger than that because he has been working almost 10 years. Can anybody find a shot of him in his first Versace ad. (SS04 I think.)

his face is too pretty, not fair! although I'd wish he'd smile in these, I LOVE when he smiles <3
