I watched the Spin Crowd and the only reason I watched so much was because of Mario Lopez. Jonathan Cheban is a such an Ahole. The nerve that he has to tell his employee to get bigger lips because she has to step it up.
Hello has he ever looked in the mirror he is hideous his face, his hair, his clothes, all Fugly! and he eats like a total pig. I won't be watching this garbage again.

Jonathan Cheban is a ridiculous bully, and frankly, should be sued for the horrible treatment of his employees. "Keeping up With the Kardashians" has sweetness and humor to go along with the glam. " "The Spin Crowd" has spun itself out of control with the horrible personality of Jonathan.

Jonathan on Spin Crowd is so over the top ridiculous that it is painful to watch. I thought exec producer Kim K was supposed to be a friend of his? No friend would make such a fool of him. He is at least 40 lbs overweight, has the biggest moon face on television, eats like a low class pig and dresses terribly. He could and should be sued for the things he says to employees. There are no words to describe how un-entertaining this show is.
I think they are trying for a "love to hate him" character similar to Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada but it is a total miss. Who would ever hire this idiot again after seeing the show? Or admit to being his friend? He needs to go back to Jersey

Kudos to Lisa, Bonnie & Juanamaria for their postings - you all said it best and took the words right out of my mouth. The only thing to add is that this wanna-be pompous ass thinks he's cool meanwhile he can only get B (list) and below so-called celebs to have as clients, no real celeb would ever work with such a LOSER!!!

BTW, I only watched the one episode I don't & can't watch it at all because he makes my skin crawl). The episode I did watch was when he wanted to get this young pretty girl botox lips (then when the poor girl got "fake injections) he yells at her -take a look in the mirror Jonny Boy - you need much more than one plastic surgery buddy!
