His sexy booty has been featured in Tommy billboards

the label perfectly: his capability of having versatile

American spirit through the clothing line.
Jason has been studying acting for the past a few years.
He's currently living in Hollywood, trying to develop a
career as an actor. Jason is keeping his options open, and
