And there is a specific criteria to meet to qualify for this visa. Actors also have their own list of requirements. Not every model or actor will qualify.

And social media influencers too. It's easier to meet extraordinary ability qualifications in non-technical professions that are more public facing.

  While I don't doubt many laws are passed with shady intentions, this assertion definitely needs some evidence to back it up.

  Not exactly. Models also qualify for H-1B's.

    H1Bs are limited in number only 64K and they are assinged by lottery as around 300K people apply for them. Also you need to start applying in January and you can come only in October. Escorts often need much faster recruitment and short contracts. H1Bs are used by people from what establishment sees as "undesirable" people such as Indians and Chinese and hence there is far too much red tape and confusion there. Senators and Us Reps aren't going to take their route for their side chicks.

  Looks like there is another category called Einstein Visa. Melania Trump got it. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-43256318 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-43256318

    O1 visa is the Einstein visa. Also Albert Einstein would have likely failed to obtain one for number of reasons.

That's a O-1B visa. Slightly different (and more relaxed) criteria. O-1A requires "a level of expertise indicating that the person is one of the small percentage who have arisen to the very top of the field of endeavor". O-1B merely requires "a high level of achievement in the field of arts, as evidenced by a degree of skill and recognition substantially above that ordinarily encountered".

  Maybe there should be a "slightly different" "more relaxed" criteria for fucking people that build.
