Nicole Arianna Abuhamada, née Fox (born March 6, 1991) is an American artist and fashion model. She is best known as the winner of cycle 13 of ANTM in 2009.

Early Life

Nicole Fox graduated from Monarch High School. In 2009, she was a sophomore at the University of Colorado at Boulder majoring in studio arts. She wanted to be an artist, journalist and model.

A couple of months before the show, she met a photographer at an art gallery in Denver. He encouraged her to try out because he knew Allison Harvard who is also an artist like Nicole. With his encouragement, she gathered the courage to try out.

ANTM

Nicole was selected as one of the fourteen finalists to compete in cycle 13, which was especially created for petite models who are 5'7" and under. She stood at exactly 5'7", the maximum height for entry.

She was known for her shy and awkward personality. At auditions, she told the girls a story of how her eyeball was bloody when she was born, and having the nickname "Bloody eyeball". She was also good friends with Bianca. Nicole criticized Ashley and Lulu talking behind Bianca's back, even on set at the elongation photoshoot. She was in a minor rivalry with Kara, who constantly talked negatively about Nicole in confessional.

Throughout the competition, Nicole won two reward challenges and three first call-outs. She was usually called in the top three and was one of the strongest girls of her cycle. At the final judging, she was lauded for her high-fashion photographs and her successful mastery of her body proportion, in spite of her unconventional runway walk in the fashion show. In the end, she was chosen as the winner, beating Laura, who was considered another favorite of the judges.

Tyra said to her following her win, "You are a star. You have IT!" Her sister, Alexandra Fox, said about her sister: "She's definitely glad she did it, but she wouldn't repeat it. You're on camera 24 hours a day, and you can't have a single conversation without worrying about how it will be edited."

Post-Show

After the show, Nicole has signed with Wilhelmina Models.

As the winner of America's Next Top Model, Fox received a six page spread in Seventeen Magazine, and an ad for Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara. Fox has also modeled for Illiterate Magazine, in which she had a spread, and been featured on AOL.com, More magazine and in OK! Magazine. Fox was featured in Wild Fox Couture's 2010 fall collection lookbook along with models Rachel Ballinger and Daria Plyushko, as well as on-line ads for Spirit Hoods and a campaign for Heritage 1981's Spring 2010 collection, which is a sister brand of Forever 21, and ads for Steve Madden Spring Collection. She was in a campaign for Nicole Richie's "House of Harlow 1960 Spring 2011" fashion line. She modeled for CoverGirl Eyewear and Ed Hardy.

In January 2010, a news story circulated reporting that she would be the face of Alexander McQueen's new spring/summer collection, but this rumor was revealed to be false and has been debunked by both.

Acting

Nicole starred as Ashley in the indie teen drama "Ashley", directed by Dean Ronalds and produced by Trick Candle Productions and Ronalds Brothers Productions. The film was released in the US in 2013. She portrayed a model on the television soap opera "The Bold and the Beautiful" in December 2011. She can be spotted in the "Avengers" Dr. Pepper commercial as Stan Lee's assistant.

In 2012, she was chosen by director Brett Leonard for the PopFictionLife FragFilm "The Other Country". She plays Melanie, a concert goer who catches the eye of Burlap's lead guitarist, Johnny. In 2014, she starred in "Redlands" which was favorably reviewed in The Washington Post as "artfully evocative — of alienation, the constraints on ambition and the danger of unexpressed anger." Her performance was lauded in El Mundo as "a diamond in the rough: she knows how to communicate her emotions through her eyes, she has a suggestive voice, an impressive physique, and she isn’t afraid of taking risks." In 2014, she starred in "Girl House" as Mia, a beautiful young model who lives in a house that streams content to an X-rated website.

Other Work

In 2021, She published the picture book "Lipton Loves", which follows the adventures of a tabby cat as he moves throughout his day.
