LOS ANGELES—Another Canadian has become a big name at the Playboy Mansion.
Jayde Nicole is Playboy’s 2008 Playmate of the Year.

The 22-year-old brunette bombshell is featured in a 10-page nude pictorial in Playboy’s June issue that comes out this week.
Along with her title, she also gets $100,000 in prize money and a 2008 Cadillac C-T-S.
She is Canada’s first Playmate of the Year since 1982, when Shannon Tweed was honoured with the title.
Nicole is a local celebrity in her home town of Port Perry, in southern Ontario, where she graduated with honours from Port Perry High School in 2004.
She now owns a modeling agency called Jayde Nicole Incorporated, which she founded in 2005.
She’s was managing the day-to-day operations of the agency before catching Playboy’s eye and landing the title of Miss January, 2007.
She currently is writing her own fitness and beauty book, and has just finished filming a pilot for a reality television show about her life.
She also has raised money for a campaign to help fight AIDS in Africa.
