China Club
Through a fluke meeting at The China Club in the early 1980s, Mr. Jett was offered a contract to model for "Cinq Deux Un" ("521"), an agency in Tokyo, Japan. Jett's modeling career lasted for the next eight years. Then known as "Jhett," he became one of the highest paid male models in the world in 1982, with contracts in Milan, Paris, Los Angeles, and Barcelona. Jett also appeared in "Playgirl" that year, in a profile about his career and life in Beverly Hills. He met The Go-Go's lead singer Belinda Carlisle, and they quickly became best friends.
