AJ Abualrub first got into the modeling world when he was named a semi-finalist in VMAN and Ford’s model search. He became a Calvin Klein favorite and appeared in their men and jeans campaigns. AJ has also starred in campaigns for Levi’s, Uniqlo and Frankie Morello. He became quite the story when he lost thirty pounds for the spring 2011 season, but the buzz only seemed to propel his career more. AJ’s most recent campaign is Sisley shot by none other than Terry Richardson.
