Nicole Borud (born March 19, 1983) is an American fashion model and actress. She was a contestant on Cycle 3 of ANTM in 2004. She was the ninth girl eliminated and placed sixth.
ANTM[]
Nicole was the ninth girl chosen to enter the house. She took strong shot after strong shot, but she wasn't showing much personality in the house or judging. In episode four, she helped Amanda find out who was stealing her things by setting a trap.
She earned the first call-out in episode eight, when the girls had to pose with tarantulas. The next episode, Tyra forgot to call Nicole's name at judging, causing Tyra to come to the decision that Nicole was too forgettable, so she was sent home over Yaya despite her strong portfolio.
