"Jayde Nicole" (born February 19, 1986 in Scarborough, Ontario) is a Canadian model. She is "Playboy"'s Playmate of the Month for January 2007, and was later named Playmate of the Year in the June 2008 issue of the men's magazine. She is the first Canadian Playmate of the Year in 26 years, the prior model being Shannon Tweed.
Nicole began modeling for catalogs and fashion shows at the age of six. The following year, Nicole's family moved from Scarborough to Port Perry. When she turned eleven, she stopped modeling for a time, as she was finding herself becoming 'too mature to be doing kid's jobs'.
When she was 15, a scout from a Toronto modeling agency spotted her outside the Air Canada Centre as she was leaving a concert and offered her an opportunity to return to modeling. Since then, Nicole has appeared in numerous publications and fashion shows. She created and owns her own agency, 'A Touch of Class', based in Port Perry.
Nicole studied hotel management at George Brown College in Toronto, but dropped out to pursue a modeling career.
A prominent feature of her body is a tattoo of the word 'respect' in Blackmoor font on her extreme lower abdomen. She got the tattoo after leaving a bad relationship to remind herself to not let anyone push her around. The placement was in part due to her career as a model. In that location, she could still model without worrying about the tattoo being revealed on non-nude modelling jobs.
In October 2008, Nicole appeared in a presidential election spoof video for Funny or Die.com. The video, 'Playmates Heat Up the Presidential Debate' also features fellow Playboy models Jo Garcia, Grace Kim, and Christine Smith. Footage was taken from the Presidential town hall debate which took place October 7, 2008, and digitally altered to show the women asking Senators Obama and McCain a series of questions.
