are you a mentor in modeling?
If someone would like pointers/advice or someone to come along with them to a shoot to help with posing etc, I would be more than happy to help out.

Are you religious?
I wasn't brought up in a religious household. I like to say I have "universal consciousness." It would take a while to describe what exactly it is that I believe in, but if you're asking if I'm catholic, no I'm not.
You have to be my number one favorite model ever! I love your personality and your beauty. You are so sweet and so honest! I hope you never change Nicole<33
Thank you so much I really appreciate that!! xoxo

is canada a racist country like america? im black and im going to canada because i loved it when i visited last year. are you racist or you dont care what color or race a person is?
Unfortunately I think you will find racism in any country you visit, BUT I do believe Canada is an amazing country full of open-minded non-judgemental people. From what I've experienced, Canada is a highly cultural place. Come to Vancouver and most people that live there aren't actually from Canada :) I'm most definitely not racist. The colour of someone's skin should not define who they are.
do you answer emails from people who want to ask you questions? --> is that the right email address?
Yes I Do. And yes, the email is correct. Thanks !
What's an Irish Linen store? And what did you not like about working there?
It's a store that sells mainly Irish Linens. This ranges from expensive table cloths, to other linens like hand towels etc. Not a very exciting job.
Do you have a favorite outfit from glamour modeling? If so, which one is it?
I don't have a particular favorite outfit, as I rarely wear the same outfit more than once or twice. But in general, I love corsets, or a nice pair of stockings and pretty babydoll cami or something.

Have you ever gotten offensive questions on here before? How do you handle people who disrespect you?
I have, yes. I just ignore the questions and delete them. The world is full of people trying to bring others down to boost their ego. I choose to look past that.

what is your least favorite job you ever done which you were employed to do?
Overall, I'd have to say my jobs have been pretty amazing. Although, working at an Irish linen store a few years ago was not my favorite.

have you foreseen how you will accept the luckiest man in the world's proposal? do care to reveal any particular detail of this auspicious vision?
I'm not quite sure how to answer that to be honest. Proposal as in marriage or something along those lines? Or proposal as in potential modeling job?
Do you always bring someone with you to your shoots to make sure your safe? How do you know if the places you go to get your photo taken are safe?
I don't usually bring an escort along with me. I did a few times when I started out modeling. If I ever feel like my safety will be in jeopardy, I usually postpone or cancel the shoot. You shouldn't have to feel like you NEED to bring someone along to ensure your safety. That's why I reference check/meet with the photographer before hand for coffee.
next to your gorgeous eyes i love your beautiful hair most. which of your many physical attributes do you appreciate about yourself most and which non-physical attribute do you admire about yourself?
Thank you very much. Physical attribute, I'd say I love my eyes the most. Non-Physical attribute, I'd have to say honesty or intelligence.
if you could travel anywhere in the world, where will you go and why?
I'd love to backpack through Europe, but I'd also love to visit Vietnam, Egypt or Kenya to experience different cultures.
do you have a 'bucket list' and if so what is on it?
I've never made a bucket list, but I have been meaning to. Skydiving and bungee jumping will be included on there.
which reality tv shows would you consider going on?
None. I don't watch much TV, and if I do it's definitely NOT reality tv.

do you believe that a beautiful model (such as yourself) can keep her glamour career active and be in a long term committed relationship? if so, how? if not, which would you choose?
I do believe so, yes. There has to be a great amount of trust in that relationship and loyalty of course in any relationship, but also an understanding. I approach modeling with professionalism and nothing less. The understanding of this needs to be known by the other person in the relationship and they need to be able to trust me and know that what happens at shoots is strictly business. It is possible, but both people need to meet halfway without one of the people in the relationship being jealous or suspicious.
How does your family feel about you choosing to be a model as your career? Do you plan on modeling for a long time and how far do you want to take it?
My family has always supported me in whatever decisions I choose to make, which I am very grateful for. I'm not sure how long I plan on modeling for, although I'd love to continue doing it for the next few years atleast. I've always considered modeling as a hobby and never really thought about where it could take me in the future, we'll see!
Are there earthquakes in Canada? I'm from California and I've always been curious if another country in North America had earthquakes too.
I'm sure there are earthquakes throughout all of Canada. Living in BC, there are earthquakes here for sure but they're usually so small you don't even notice them.

if you were the sole winner of the lotto 6/49 jack pot of $40 million dollars, how would you spend or invest it?
I would use the money to - Buy both my parents houses, my dad a boat, my mom a car, pay off all of my debt, invest some and donate a lot of the money towards certain charities. Would like to help build schools and hospitals in underdeveloped countries as well.
Did you always want to be a model? How did you choose to be Glamor model?
I didn't always want to be a model, I sort of fell into it to be honest. I always wanted to be an actress or dancer. I think partially the reason I've been into glamour modeling is because of my body type. I'm not tall and slender, so fashion is out of the question. Curves are great for glamour though!
Do you like having brown or blonde hair more?
I love both! It depends on what I'm feeling at the moment. Right now, I love having brown hair and I needed the change, but I also loved having blonde hair.

Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the United States on a world map. Why do you think this is?
I think that a fifth of Americans can't locate the US on a world map because from what I understand, most of their world history is taught only about the Us, therefore they would never need to learn about other countries and their locations, and there probably are only US maps, but no WORLD MAPS showing where they are in relative to everything else.
What would you do if you could hang out with James Dean for a weekend? ;-)
James Dean, oh my goodness. I'd ask him what was his favorite role to play and why, and which was the most challenging. I'd also LOVE to go for a ride in his car with him, speed around and have a good time. Maybe go to the beach, just chill out and get to know who he really was.
If you could hang out with Marilyn Monroe for a weekend, what would you do?
Honestly? I would want to sit inside and watch movies with her all day and gossip about our favorite movies stars while we eat ice cream.
in your photo your eyes are so beautiful and captivating. tell me about your seduction and what is going through your mind when the camera clicks.
Thank you! A lot goes through my mind as I'm modeling. Part of it is that i'm trying to imagine how my pose and angle look to the photographer, this has come though over time and didn't come naturally at first. I think about my expression and if my eyes are open enough usually haha and a lot of it goes into where my hands are placed. i love glamour because it's all about seduction and really selling it to the camera. Eyes are such a big part of that.

What is the difference between Vancouver Island and Vancouver B.C? Which do you live? Is Vancouver B.C a dangerous place like people claim? Or is that only Downtown East Side?
Vancouver, BC is situated on the mainland and Vancouver Island Bc is the island beside it. About an hour and a half ferry ride will get you from Victoria, bc to Tsawwassen and then about a 30 minute drive into Vancouver. I now live in Victoria (where I've lived all my life) but for the past year I lived in Vancouver. I believe that any place can be dangerous, depending on many things. There are many beautiful areas in Vancouver like Stanley Park, North Vancouver is beautiful as well. The East Side can be dangerous. The homelessness problem there is one of the worst in North America. but the city as a whole is beautiful and incredibly diverse.

Have you ever had a bad photo shoot experience or have they all been good? Have you ever had any scary moments?
I have had a few scary situations unfortunately. They've all been apart of the learning process for me. These experiences have made me realize that modeling is a lot dangerous than I thought in the beginning.
Is this true? Being a model or an actor is not about being discovered, it's about discovering yourself?
I'm not sure to be honest. I think finding anything in life you truly enjoy and want to spend your life dedicating yourself to, also includes discovering yourself. :)
Oh! Cool, I didn't know you knew who she was! Do you own any of her books?
No I don't actually, but would love to. Where can you get them, only online?
I know you probably never heard of a model named Isobella Jade. But what do you think of her view on glamor models? What's your opinion? http://petitemodelingtips.blogspot.com/2010/01/my-issues-with-glamour-modeling.html
I have heard of Isobella before actually, and I think she's wonderful! Embracing your height is a wonderful thing, and learning to live with what you've been blessed with. I haven't checked out her view on glamour models but I will check that out later!

Have you ever been to the U.S? If yes, what city?
No, actually. Surprisingly I have never been to the U.S. but I do plan on visiting in the near future!
Is Vancouver BC a good place to pursue a modeling or acting career? Or would you say going to LA or NY is better? I would like to know your honest opinion. I know going to Canada would mean getting a work or student visa if I'm in the U.S.
Honestly, I've always thought that hurling myself into the modeling/acting scene in a place like LA or NY would be a bit difficult considering the amount of people situated in those areas trying to accomplish the same things. Vancouver is an amazingly diverse place and great for starting in acting/modeling. I'd say to help out yourself ahead of the crowd, look into some acting schools and get into some training, or take some acting classes on the side. It never hurts to study what you love, and that would defintely make you stand out in the crowd instead of being another one of those struggling actors working as a waitress/waiter on the side :) Good luck !
You are a VERY, VERY gorgeous women! You have such a great look! I wish I was as pretty as you =/
I really appreciate that, thank you so much!
Hi Nicole, I'm Kayla and I wanted to ask if I could email you to ask questions about Canada and Modeling. You are so beautiful and your inspiring. You amaze me with your hard work. I don't want to ask them here so is it possible to email you?

:) Thanks!
Do you love Canada?
I love Canada!! I've always been so patriotic, how could I not be? Canada is an amazing country, and more specifically BC is a wonderful province!
Is being a model a dangerous job?
That's a great question! It really depends on a lot of factors. Modeling needs to be approached in a serious and business-like manner. If you check references, possibly meet the photographer for coffee or chat on the phone before hand, these ways of preparing for a shoot are always a good idea. Developing a base of trusted and close photographers to regularly work with is always a great idea! Always approach each shoot cautiously. I won't lie, being a model can be dangerous, but as long as you approach each situation with a realistic outlook on the situation and cover your bases before hand to ensure as much safety as possible, it should be fine :)
