Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary met at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. For the 'lead or starring role' criterion, the petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence of prospective distinguished events. For the 'published materials' criterion, the evidence submitted was published after the petition's filing date and therefore was not considered.
