[edit] Big Brother 2
Nicole was one of twelve Big Brother 2 contestants, who were confined in a house together, with the objective of outlasting one another. Each week contestants voted out a fellow contestant, until the end where only Nicole and Will Kirby were the last two left. A group of nine evicted contestants were gathered to decide who would win. Each finalist excluded one person, leaving a jury of seven to vote for the winner. Five voted for Will, who won the $500,000 grand prize.[4] With only two votes, Nicole was awarded the runner-up prize of $50,000.
Prior to this, Nicole was one of the three contestants who were still in the house when the September 11, 2001 attacks occurred. Breaking the normal rules of the show, they were given basic information of the events.[5]
