In 2014, Jessica (via her P.R. company PPMG) was hired to promote and produce our 4th annual Oscar event "Salute to the Stars" that was held at the rooftop space atop the Hollywood "W" Hotel, on the evening of March 2nd. During our interview process, she had stated that she "...represented "A" list stars..." and "had worked in the biz (show business) for well over 10yrs.." (both statements (of which) we later found out NOT TO BE TRUE!), and the she, her partner (Michelle Czernin von Chudenitz Morzin (alleged "blue blood royalty) and her 10 full time employees (SHE HAS NO EMPLOYEES) were more than capable of promoting, obtaining a roster of named "A" list celebrities to attend, and handle the guest/VIP list. THIS WAS A HUGE MISTAKE!
We started to question our discussion to hire her/PPMG, when on many occasions during the ramp up to our event, she would "FLIP OUT" and become argumentative with violent undertones that became real, when hours before the kick off of our event, she actually challenged the (male) promoter to "FIST FIGHT" for questioning her on the long list of "to do" items that had yet to be done.
Next, she would become angry when asked about "...who exactly (meaning Stars) was confirmed", then became even more combative when we reached out to the representatives of the Names that she gave, and the denied both knowing her, or anything about the event! This, pattern continued when we did some more checking on her claims to "rep" Johnny Depp, David Arquette, Billy Zane, Jessica Alba, and many others (by name dropping) turned out NOT TO BE TRUE!
There was a lot of work and many moving parts to this event, and the running of the red carpet and entree to the roof top event landed in her wheel house. This she was on top of! So much so, that when the we told her to add names to the guest list, we would get PUSH BACK for many reasons. This "push back" was odd to us, seeings that we were cleared for a set amount of both invited, V.I.P., Celebrity, Sponsors and Paid Guest to attend. Hours into the event, we found out why! This event, was a ticked event; 70% of those attending purchased entree, with the remaining set number of guest would be comp'd, all according to colored wrist bands that were issued to the 3 categories. One color for Paid ticketed guest, another color for "All Access Sponsor guest, and a third for VIP guest! The total amount of attendees would come in 15-20% well under fire Marshall capacity. SO WE THOUGHT! Just 90mins into the 5 hour long event, we and the promoter started to get heated texted and phone calls of OUR GUEST being refused entree into the event, due to over capacity! This growing nightmare, soon became compounded by even more angry text and calls from the street below (where the Red Carpet was located) complaining that they (our guest that WERE ON THE LIST) were kept waiting, as Jessica Kill and her partner (Michelle Czernin von Chudenitz Morzin (alleged "blue blood royalty) , would escort "un-counted for guest" onto the red carpet for photos, then to security to be allowed up to the party, via a SPECIAL wristband!?!! WTF??!!
This was news to us, and it was only after the sun came up the next day, and we pieced together this complete SCREW UP via the slew of text, emails and full voice mails that we combed through; that we learned that JESSICA KILL not only FORGED FAKE WRISTBANDS!!!!.. but took it upon herself/PPMG to sell them as private sponsorships to the event and gave out a good number of those fake bands to people she wanted to impress; in order to make her look like she was the "BMOC" (big man on campus)! And if that's not bad enough, SHE (JESSICA KILL) POCKETED THE MONEY!!!! Which is nothing shy of EMBEZZLEMENT! One of the results was that, we had to REFUND money to those who couldn't get entree to the event, due to Jessica Kill's scheme! Not to mention, ours and the promoter's soiled reputation!
At this point, we must admit that we had heard rumblings, warning us NOT TO TRUST/HIRE JESSICA KILL, but she is very good at deception and has a large personality that makes you want to trust her claims of being a real player in the entertainment industry. This was a hard lesson to learn that cost us dearly. We obviously fired her the next day.
Oh, and just to complete the full picture of the scary and unbalanced mindset of this person; She actually submitted an invoice for services! WHAT BALLS! As a reply, she was told to "keep the money she schemed" and if we heard another word from her, we would see her in court!
On a side note, although we were assured by council that this case would be a Slam Dunk in our favor, it was decided not to pursue ANY CONTACT with this type of toxic person named Jessica Kill and company!
