JP is the son of Juliana Valentine and Ed Valentine, and the cousin of Bingo Zohar.

In 1953, he was a crooner and the head of his quartet, 'JP and the Wishing Stars', but they were overshadowed by Bingo's new and revolutionary rock music and style. While Bingo was recording his original song at Ed's diner to send to American Bandstand, JP arrived. He was angry that the family he had thought was perfect and happy was just a facade, and that society around him was changing in a way he didn't like or understand. JP blamed Bingo for it, saying, "Everything was perfect until you came." After a short argument, JP turned his father's gun on Bingo and shot him in the chest, killing him.
