A Jamaican-born fashion model is taking on American presidential wannabe Donald Trump, saying the modeling agency he owned treated her “like a slave.”

The model, Alexia Palmer, said in a lawsuit against the agency lured her to New York to work at age 17 with the promise of riches and fame, but she received only US $3,880 plus cash advances totaling $1,100 over a three year period. Trump Model Management had, however, filed immigration documents to obtain a special work visa, called an H-1B, for Palmer, certifying she would work “full-time” and earn $75,000 a year, Palmer alleges.

“That’s what slavery people do,” Palmer told ABC News. “You work and don’t get no money.”

She said the agency took 80 percent of her earnings as expenses and fees but only found her 21 shoots over three years. And under the terms of her visa, she could not work anywhere else if she wanted to stay in the U.S.

Trump's attorney, Alan Garten, disputed Palmer’s claim, saying she was treated the same as any other fashion industry prospect and made little money because “she had a lack of work."
