The first time I saw her was in Feast of All Saints, she was casted perfectly for that role, but that rape scene was really rough to watch, I actually warned my mother about it so that she wouldn't watch it with my niece.
Her acting wasn't too bad in Half & Half either, I am not sure if she was in one or two episodes.

Yeah, that gang rape scene was pretty intense. "Feast of All Saints" was a very informative movie as it educated me about the whole plasage thing that once existed in pre Civil War New Orleans. Overall though, I think it could've been a better movie.
According to IMDB, Nicole was on Half & Half 3 times:
"Half & Half" .... Stephanie Seymour (3 episodes, 2003-2004)
- The Big Not So Loyal Family Episode (2004) TV episode .... Stephanie Seymour
- The Big Employee Benefits Episode (2004) TV episode .... Stephanie Seymour
- The Big Mixed Up Mojo Episode (2003) TV episode .... Stephanie
Nicole is a beautiful woman.....Dule is one lucky man.
Feast of All Saints - That's where I know her from. I was trying to place her face. An okay movie but the book is great. Another book along similar lines that I hope they make into a movie one day is Cane River by Lalita Tademy.
