Bio:
Jax Taylor (born Jason Taylor in Shelby Township, Michigan on July 11, 1979) is a model/actor and reality star. He was once in the army, but moved to New York City as a youngster to pursue modeling; living with actor Channing Tatum in the process. He then moved to Miami and eventually Los Angeles, where he decided to change his name from Jason to Jax because there were already too many Jasons in the industry. He’s booked gigs with the likes of Taco Bell, Trump Magazine, GQ, Abercrombie & Fitch and JC Penny, and he was also the cover model for the popular video game Assassin’s Creed. He rose to fame in 2013, when The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills spinoff Vanderpump Rules featured Jax as SUR Restaurant’s sexy, often shirtless bartender. Jax became a breakout star on the show due to his womanizing ways and his on-and-off relationship with his co-star Stassi Schroeder.

He tried to win Stassi back by getting her name tattooed on his arm, but his efforts backfired when it was revealed that Jax had once — sorry, twice — slept with Stassi’s friend Kristen Doute. As of February 2014, he is dating 23-year-old model Carmen Dickman.
