[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a story about the circumstances around her obtaining her visa would be fascinating.

I think the "modeling" in the US was a cover for her being a (very) high priced escort. Lots of NDAs, etc., which is part of the reason that she is incredibly litigious about anything that attempts to look into her background.[/quote]

Totally, 100% This is very common and kinda the way it works in the modeling field overall. Girls sign with an agency (do we even know her agency?) and are brought into one of the big cities to work. That whole time, their agency is charging them for rent, transportation, etc. They don't hit the ground making money, they start going into debt. They go on go-sees which they are not paid for. When they are low level, what they do book may be paid for in clothes. Their agency doesn't want clothes as payment and you can't use clothes to buy food. What they do have are people who pay to be surrounded by models and hopefully sleep with them. So they can easily latch onto that scene and go out every night and try to see if they can hook someone. They may not have an actual Madam/Pimp but someone is paid to show up with them to party and they are highly incentivized to do more. If they can't pay their agency and they don't book, boom. Back to your home country. Most don't want to do that, so they compromise. 5000 bucks for one night with some gross guy could buy them another month in NYC looking for that big break before they're sent home. So they do it.

I have NO DOUBT this is what Melania was doing at that "party" she met Trump at, if not in something more organized. I think the idea her parents were paying for her to live all over Europe and in NYC is preposterous. They were middle class, but I do not get the sense they could afford that in the slightest.
