Jayde Nicole is a proud Canadian. She was awarded the Playboy Playmate of the Month for January 2007 and was named the 2008 Playmate of the Year in the June issue of the famous men's magazine. She is the first Canadian Playmate of the Year in 26 years, and the third over all, the previous two being Dorothy Stratten and Shannon Tweed.
A prominent feature on her body is a tattoo of the word "Respect" on her lower abdomen. The placement was due to her career as a model, so she could still model without worrying about the tattoo being revealed on non-nude modeling jobs. The 22-year-old brunette was featured in the 10-page nude pictorial in Playboy's June 2008 issue. Along with her title, she also received $100,000 in cash and a new car.
Jayde took some time out of her busy schedule to talk to RockStar Weekly about how Playboy originally discovered her, what life is like with Hugh Hefner, what's it like at the mansion and how her life has changed since becoming Playmate of the Year.
