What is prison bae?

"Prison bae" is a term that originated from a viral mugshot of a man named Jeremy Meeks in 2014. Meeks' mugshot gained attention on social media for his strikingly good looks, leading to him being dubbed "prison bae" or "hot felon." The image quickly went viral, and Meeks became a sensation overnight.

After his release from prison in 2016, Meeks pursued a career in modeling and acting, working with top agencies and landing campaigns with major fashion brands. He has since built a successful career in the entertainment industry and is often referred to as the original "prison bae."
