Coachella-bound beauty queen is deported while trying to travel to festival
dailymail ^

Posted on 04/18/2025 4:54:39 PM PDT by algore

A former Brazilian beauty queen was deported from the United States after customs agents deemed she was a threat to the country's national security.

Francielly Ouriques was connecting at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago on April 10 for a flight to California to attend the 2025 Coachella festival when she was intercepted by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents.

In a video posted on social media earlier this week, Ouriques said that she was escorted to a room for a secondary inspection and underwent questioning.

She revealed that one of the reasons that led to her removal was that she was carrying luggage for a friend.

While searching through her purse, customs agents found four tablets of Tramal – a severe pain medication – that is considered illegal in the United States.

'I didn't know. If I had I known, I would never have it in my purse,' Ouriques said.

Ouriques explained that she spent five hours in a room with other foreign travelers who were pulled to the side as CBP agents inspected her smart phone before finally ruling that her tourist visa would be revoked.

'They claimed that I was suspected of illegal job in the United States and that I was an threat to the country,' she said.

Ouriques revealed that she had visited the United States in 2024 with a former boyfriend and that they had spoken about opening a business together.

The agents, Ouriques said, discovered messages from her month-long stay and her conversations with a company regarding her visa status.

'So my access was denied in the United States, and my visa was going to be canceled,' she said.

Pretty but the light in her eyes is from the sun shining though her ear holes.

Sorry, the H-1B3 category is called "Fashion Model."

The position/services must require a fashion model of prominence.

To be eligible for this visa category you must be a fashion model of distinguished merit and ability.


The prospective petitioner must include a Form ETA-9035/9035E, Labor Condition Application (LCA) certified by the Department of Labor (DOL), with the Form I-129.

Expand the "Eligibility Criteria" section of this link from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services website.

I remember because people were trying to make an issue of it after the election because the Trump Organization had requested several H-1B visas for runway models.

You should volunteer for the alternative of home detention at your house where you can testify that she hasn’t gone out to get into any trouble. Offer to accept responsibility.

Once a sports journalist reported that when some NFL cheerleaders were shown on TV a girlfriend said “Hey, they’re all implants, guys.”
The four men watching said in unison “We don’t care.”


In 1960 (outdated language) the actress Arlene Dahl wrote: “Men will continue to be excited about the appearance of a woman they’re with even after they discover the woman wore falsies. It shows what dreamers men are.”

“”It sounds really close to what my doctor ordered for me for depression - dammitol.””

Dammitol? Really?

Tell them you want that new stuff, fukitol, 500mg.

Even if you ain’t cured, you won’t care.

Which is why stopping at four is probably a good idea. :)
