Improprieties with young models
Hi! Have you read this?

http://m.dailykos.com/story/2016/10/6/1578544/-The-Untold-Story-of-Trump-Model-Management-A-Daily-Kos-Exclusive-Part-1

While the article is directed at Trump, it contains plenty of allegations about Casablancas. 168.88.65.6 (talk) 14:23, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

for example: after "60 minutes aired a prime-time special on the abuses of underage girls in the modeling industry...Casablancas was removed from his official role as head of the “New Faces” division of Elite, where he had unrestrained access and influence over the youngest and most impressionable girls represented by his agency" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.201.249.66 (talk) 22:45, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

The allegations are written in the New York Magazine here: https://books.google.com/books?id=VeUCAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA32&lpg=PA32&dq=john+casablancas+girl+crazy&source=bl&ots=UFvNFKwwSJ&sig=NMt24z8tHl-02wav2GHxtWoZkiI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjD3IL-gcfPAhWE4D4KHYwNARQQ6AEIHjAA#v=onepage&q=john%20casablancas%20girl%20crazy&f=false He was "dating" 16-year-old Stephanie Seymour in 1984. 168.88.65.6 (talk) 14:32, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Proposed merge with Starsystem
No sign has been given of notability of Starsystem; sources are generally passing mentions in the coverage of Casablancas' life. As such, that's where our coverage (if any) should be. Nat Gertler (talk) 13:45, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I just went ahead and merged after encountering the Starsystem article and determining that it was clearly not notable, and seeing there wasn't much appetite for a discussion on the matter. --Pontificalibus (talk) 14:58, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Right move. Thanks! I forgot to check back here, or I'd have done it myself. --Nat Gertler (talk) 16:41, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
