I wonder if Jean's hobby is stage magic tricks.

Most Akumatized draw their inspiration from a real life ability, hobby or interest, so it would not be unsurprising that he was an actual stage magician before being transformed.

Which makes me wonder what lead to his transformation.

Given that he's a student at Marinette's school, I'm imagining he messed up a performance in a talent show audition, a certain Blonde started heckling him and well, it went downhill from there. If this scenario is true, add another point for Akumatizations caused by Chloe.

And given that Marinette (as Ladybug) seems more invested in talking to him afterwards might imply that she both knows him personally and witnessed the incident that lead to him being transformed.
