Starbiz Talent - Starbiz Entertainment
Mislead, ripoff

To whom it may concern:

Atleast I was smart enough to check them out before throwin down my money - the old saying always prevails - "If it sounds to good to be true..." And we all know the rest - heard the ad on radio - went EXACTLY as described by others - with one small twist.

I read the info and called in told them I was disgusted by what I had read - and that I had done some research - I wanted to know why they were not licensed agents and why the Screen Actors Guild does not have them listed as a legit company to work with.

Reply - you will need to talk to your agent - and we hear this all the time - and one angry customer has lead to many problems etc. Fine I say - I am a business owner also - I know how that goes, lets resolve this now. Tell me - I was told only three children were picked for a "personal magazine???" And mine was one of them - she is female - what are her initials.

OH MY GOODNESS - never heard such a direct halt of a conversation - the lady had nothing to say - I said surely with only three children you would be able to tell me the initials of my "perfect for what we are looking for, adorable" child right - reply - oh I cannot give out personal information???

I said no I know you cannot that is why I asked for initials only - I was immediately told the owner would call me back - this was our first experience in this industry my daughter is 2 and cute as a button - they prey on people's love for their children - it really is disgusting.

FOR ALL YOU PARENTS WHO LIKE ME NOW WANT TO KNOW ABOUT LEGIT AGENCIES - the former employee is correct — there areonly five legit talent agencies out there - and the experience is quite differenct when you call them - If you still think your child is the "nest big thing" go to www.sag.org go to resources and then go to agents - pick your state and the Screen Actors Guild will give you respected agents in our area.

My first call to one of them they told me no way no how - no reason to spend money on photos before being offered a job - all they need is a head shot any will do if they are interested they call you back and most often if you do happen to need a portfolio they will either cover the cost or take out of your first job.

I hope and pray more people read this BEFORE handing over the money. And don't worry mammas and daddys your babies are still gorgeous.
