Did you do that when model Kate Moss was and continues to be allowed in to work in NYC after being caught on videotape snorting cocaine in a London recording studio?

The story was widely reported in the media in New York at the time. She's another one whose management company seems to be able to bail her out of trouble with the authorities. Despite damning film footage of her snorting coke the Met police found that there wasn't enough evidence to convict her....:curse:

If I was aware of it at the time probably. We have enough locally grown junkies that we don't need to be importing them. Truthfully, didn't even know she isn't a U.S. citizen. Not up on fashion and super models

She's never going to get permanent residency under current legislation -- so we're not really importing them.

On the other hand - it seems fairly obvious that these women aren't intending to live here as immigrants, they are just after visitors visas which entitle them to work here briefly on business trips.

Likewise there are probably many US entertainers who go over to the UK on tours or for a couple of shows who have been taking drugs.

I often wonder how Ozzy Osbourne managed to live in the States with his history (which included convictions).....

I can only find one two convictions for him ..one for burglary as a juvenile

No drugs conviction

Lets be fair here we can't single old winehouse out, most celebs that come to the US and get a visa are seen sooner or later sticking something up their noses' or going to rehab,taking god knows what drugs etc.
