Jade Cole was a contestant on the Cycle 6 of ANTM.
Born and raised in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, Jade Cole is an Indian and African-American fashion model. Before she was on America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 6, Jade already had some experience as a model in the fashion industry. She was in Jay-Z and Pharell Williams’ “Change Clothes” music video, where she got to work alongside supermodel Naomi Campbell.
As a finalist on America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 6, Jade became well-known for her notorious personality. The judges and the other girls often criticized her for her arrogant behavior. Jade didn’t see herself as being arrogant, but was always making negative comments about her fellow Top Model finalist, Gina Choe, who was known to be very insecure. Because the judges disapproved of Jade’s attitude, they placed her on the bottom two five times during the season. Nevertheless, her natural talent for modeling brought her all the way to the Top 3, but she was finally eliminated from the show on the season finale. She was the eleventh contestant to be sent home and, in a unique way of saying goodbye, read a portion of her own poem.
Jade has become a highly successful model since appearing on the show. She has had the opportunity to model abroad, particularly in Greece and India, and has been affiliated with five different modeling agencies, namely DBA in New York City, Uber Waring in Los Angeles, SMG in Seattle, VMH Models in Vancouver and Dream Models in Singapore.
Jade opened up a productions company, the Biracial Butterfly Productions. She has also been featured in several ads for Nelly’s Apple Bottom Clothing Line.
She was signed to Elite Model Management in Hong Kong in 2009. She has appeared in the music videos Go on Girl by Neyo and Digital Girl by Jamie Foxx ft. Kanye West, The-Dream & Drake.

Jade should have won.
March 25, 2011 at 9:25 pm
Looks b*tchy and mean in EVERY picture.
May 10, 2011 at 5:05 pm
Jade’s arrogance did her in.
July 18, 2011 at 10:23 pm
yea…i know she’s arrogant but i can’t say it did her in. She has been more successful than most ATM.
May 16, 2011 at 12:53 am
I completely disagree.
Jade’s look is far too old and not at all fresh. While there is no question that she is a natural model, she would have been an excellent candidate to win ANTM maybe five or six years earlier with her looks and her talent. As it turned out, by the time she got to ANTM, she just was not a fresh enough look. She just got to ANTM too late.
July 24, 2010 at 2:19 pm
No, she really should’nt have won. Too arrogant among other things, but it’s great to see her do so well.
April 5, 2011 at 7:58 am
I agree, when the season first started I was certain that Nnena or Jade were going to win, and I was kind of angry that they chose to keep Furonda instead of Nnena and then sent Jade home in the season finale. I do feel that ANTM was a great stepping stone for Jade and her attitude was a little excessive, actually a lot! But clearly, she’s worked out her kinks and it has lead her to have a fabulous career and I am so proud of her! You go Jade!! Show ‘em how it’s done.
July 31, 2010 at 5:06 am
Ugh. Tyra has no idea what she’s doing with these makeovers. Jade’s blonde hair was HORRRRRRRIBLE and I think THAT is what added to her looking older more than anything.
August 5, 2010 at 12:56 am
She was one of my favorites; glad she is doing well.
September 3, 2010 at 12:13 am
It’s obvious Tyra has a problem with women on the show with strong, non-commercial personalities; Jade was just too tough and raw for ANTM, no matter how great her photos and walk were. Tyra is always gonna pick a pick over a REAL woman.
September 3, 2010 at 7:28 am
I am so glad Jade is making her mark. I think she was one of the girls that did not need ANTM to make it. She is very beautiful and she knows how to model. I think that Tyra and the rest of them were just intimidated by Jade. By the way, I too, believe Tyra messed up with her makeover. Her big black head of hair was gorgeous.
September 4, 2010 at 11:16 pm
God blessed this girl with a MAD body! Look up ‘hourglass figure’ in the dictionary and you will see a picture of Jade.
September 15, 2010 at 7:41 pm
Hourglass?? I don’t think so! She has no bust or hips!
September 17, 2010 at 11:12 pm
Though I wasn’t a huge fan of her during Cycle 6, it’s cool to see her doing well. Or at least, did well during her career. She was 26 on the show after all, so it was probably short lived for her, but worth it!
September 19, 2010 at 10:17 pm
She will always be memorable; not for her face, but for her arrogance.
September 30, 2010 at 10:39 pm
I liked her, at least sometimes
Some of her pictures were outstanding.
October 4, 2010 at 12:50 am
All I have to say is you look like a drag queen.
And to whom ever up above: “hourglass figure?”
That’s reserved for someone with some major T & A.
October 10, 2010 at 8:00 pm
Джейд – лучшая! она очень хорошо заявила о себе . Тайра ее никогда не забудет! Джейд сделала шоу интересным! мне она нравится поскольку у нее интересная внешность
Rough Translation: “Jade – She was the best! She said so herself. I never will forget! She has made the show interesting! It is pleasant to me as at she has an interesting appearance.”
October 12, 2010 at 3:24 pm
I hate her. She looks the same in every picture. She can’t change her look. I agree that the blonde hair was a mistake; it did not suit her. I just really hate her personality and her look.
May 16, 2011 at 1:00 am
You “hate her”?
How could you possibly feel that strongly about someone you don’t even know?
I can understand you not being a fan and being put off or even offended by Jade’s arrogant personality. But, to say that you “hate her” is pretty ridiculous considering that it appears to you she was just an image on your television for an hour a week for a few weeks in your entire life.
You don’t know her. How could you possibly hate her?
Hate is a very strong word, Camilla.
For you to come to a public place and declare that you “hate” someone you don’t even know is absolutely NO reflection upon that person whatsoever, but it speaks volumes about you.
December 9, 2011 at 5:25 am
Calm the shit down. She’s not the only person on the internet using the word “hate” you know. It’s just an exaggeration for strong feelings, which to be honest i agree with. Don’t be so personally vindictive. If she wants to say things like that, let her, it’s free speech.
October 12, 2010 at 11:38 pm
Proof that an ugly aura can ruin a pretty face. She is such an arrogant snob. It makes her unlikeable and I’m glad she didn’t win.
November 3, 2010 at 1:24 pm
I loooove her body!!!
But I just DISLIKE her in general! Only her body is what I like!
November 6, 2010 at 1:42 pm
она мне вобще не нравиться!!!!!!
November 6, 2010 at 1:44 pm
She told me just do not like it !!!!!!
November 20, 2010 at 9:10 pm
The more I watch her on the ANTM reruns, the more I like her. She just cracks me up. Especially her Covergirl commercial.
November 20, 2010 at 11:46 pm
People shouldn’t get so upset about her. She’s really just a very sad figure, equating her ability to delude herself with strength.
November 30, 2010 at 10:08 pm
Wow… for a woman to start modelling at 26… I’m pretty amazed
(Even though she’s really scary sometimes.)
December 5, 2010 at 1:37 am
Jade does have a colorful personality but she is beautiful and has a mad body! Tyra has been known to hate on ANTM! But Jade was still sucessful even though she did not win! Why because she’s got the look! The first thing that Tyra did with her makeover was cut all Jade’s indian hair off and dye it blonde! Now that was wack!
December 29, 2010 at 8:22 pm
She is the best, ever!
January 26, 2011 at 7:56 am
One of the worst makeovers on the show. Jade was not my favorite by a long shot, but I felt pity for her. Cutting off that beautiful hair and dying it gold was not a fashion forward move. It roughened her features far too much. I wondered if her insecurity was amplified by the loss of something that made her feel feminine.
February 1, 2011 at 11:07 am
This speaking in 3rd person that she does is a sign of a narcissistic personality.
February 1, 2011 at 11:50 pm
Jade is clearly more insecure than the girls she picked on. Anyone who endlessly needs to brag about themselves and every mistake she makes is someelse’s fault clearly has insecurity issues. Her personality is ugly and she looks like a drag queen.
February 5, 2011 at 9:20 am
Now that I think of it, I liked her, but she really was making up excuses every time and sometimes was too arrogant. But I also think she was real and gave soul to the show. I’m glad she made to the top 3 and that she’s doing well!
February 7, 2011 at 4:12 am
Wouldn’t have guessed that she was mixed with Indian — she looks half Chinese to me. Crazy, but beautiful. Glad to see she’s still working as a model.
February 19, 2011 at 1:24 am
I LOVE JADE!!! She has amazing photos and won the most challenges. It’s obvious she’s a successful person! I don’t care what the people above say about her. SHE ROCKS!!
March 4, 2011 at 3:58 am
In her bald shoot, the pose was obviously an attempt to mimic Yaya from a previous season’s pose from the spider shoot.
April 1, 2011 at 9:39 pm
Look how beautiful Jade looks with her hair tied up in her pre-makeover photos! That’s got to be one of the worst makeovers in ANTM history! I loved Jade on the show, although she definitely had a strong love-it or hate-it personality. I agree the Tyra always picks the “safe” models to win, and that’s why none of the winners ever make it. She eliminates the people who have something different or unique, but that’s what makes someone a star.
April 10, 2011 at 8:59 pm
She stressed me out throughout this cycle, picking on everyone else’s weaknesses and putting down people, and she was DELUSIONAL, NARCISSISTIC, ARROGANT, MEAN, and oh so FAKE! I will only remember all the bad things about her. Her blonde hair made her look uglIer and about 40 years old, but on the positive side she had an AMAZING BODY! But this is TOP MODEL?
No way! She should have been voted off very early but maybe she was too good for TV ratings. I don’t like her.
Memory: Her 1st CoverGirl TV ad with her walking and twirling and thinking she was so fabulous then couldn’t get her lines? Cringe!
May 10, 2011 at 5:12 pm
I agree. Mollie Sue should not have been sent home even Jade herself said it. Bad or difficult girls like Jade, Robin (Cycle 1), Camille (Cycle 2), and most recently Alexandria (Cycle 16) seem to be good for ratings til it seriously time for them to go.
May 2, 2011 at 6:31 pm
I don’t care what the situation was during the competition…that’s what it is/was “a competition”. She did great and she should go a long way. I support and encourage biracial women to move forward. You have to fight for what you want. Lot’s of Love JADE…do that damn thing!!!!
May 11, 2011 at 8:30 am
well…she surprised me in her post antmn pix =xx
May 19, 2011 at 7:43 pm
I love Jade. She marched to the beat of her own drummer, and was certainly a fierce model. She was a tad overconfident and was humbled a bit, but she was a very complex and complicated person. Im glad she has become successful i knew she would.
June 9, 2011 at 6:28 am
She’s a brilliant model.
June 24, 2011 at 8:56 pm
I love Jade, such a nut, one of the best bodies I think on antm. Takes a godd picture considering shes not classily pretty.
July 3, 2011 at 7:09 pm
Jade is my favorite ANTM contestant, ever! Yes, they ruined her naturally beautiful look with that whack blonde short cut, but she was still fierce in spite of it. Jade made me laugh out loud a lot. I’m so happy that she has been able to keep her career going.
July 7, 2011 at 9:57 pm
Jade,sei bellissima e bravissima.Un caloroso saluto dall’Italia.Ciao.
July 15, 2011 at 1:07 am
LOOOL JADE WAS HILARIOUS! This was the best cycle of ANTM EVER.
“This is not “America’s Next Top ‘Bestfriend’” HAHAHHHHHAA
Then her dance out of the room when she got sent home.
A bit full of herself and a bit bitchy, but she was still marching to her own drum, and good for her! :’)
SHE JUST MAKES ME LAUGH! :’D
July 16, 2011 at 4:17 am
I read on Wiki Jade turned down the offer to be on Cycle 17 (All Star Edition made up of past models who were close but didn’t win) She said the offer was “Bogus and one sided.” It just shows she is still a bitch with a bad attitude.
July 25, 2011 at 6:27 am
Loved her. But she was her own enemy
July 30, 2011 at 11:49 am
Jade was one of the most hateful contestants in the entire ANTM history. Tough as my old boot, sinister, unkind, conceited and generally unlikable. Her conceit is the driving force of her career, if there was any. I don’t understand people who admire her and the likes of her. She has no heart, or if I am wrong, her heart is made of croc hide, hahaha!
August 9, 2011 at 2:44 am
♥
August 12, 2011 at 2:02 am
Team Jade, Best Dramatic Walkout ever!!!
August 12, 2011 at 9:56 pm
She was soooooo annyoing!
August 31, 2011 at 4:11 am
She’s sexy
September 3, 2011 at 10:32 pm
She’s just a pain –’ she’is not as beautiful as she seems to believe and she is soooo narcissic T_T I’m glad she didn’t win
September 13, 2011 at 1:31 pm
I think she is lovely. Who are we to comment on her personality when we do not know her in person. That is negative perception and speak volumes on ourselves.
She speaks her mind and models well,..winning or losing is part of the game…
September 18, 2011 at 8:36 pm
Jade,
You were robbed. You should have won ANTM. And I know that many will agree with me on this, that you have beautiful eyes. In fact, your eyes are more beautiful than all the stars of the heavens.
September 24, 2011 at 3:13 am
This is Americas Next Top Model….NOT Americas Next best Friend…Classic.
September 24, 2011 at 3:14 am
This is americas Next top model NOT Americas Next best friend……Classis Quote!!!
September 29, 2011 at 5:17 am
I loved Jade and I think she may have been misunderstood, people need to walk in someone else’s shoes before they judge them
October 14, 2011 at 3:10 am
tyra cut jade hair because she need hair for make her wig lol lmfao!!
December 11, 2011 at 2:25 pm
I really really wish I had a waist that tiny! Not a fan of Jade though. Three wide leg/crotch shots – never a good sign. Didn’t any of you learn from Janice Dickinson’s posing class not to do that?
December 12, 2011 at 4:25 pm
i love her arrogant face,one of my fav.jade is the funniest ever in ANTM.. ;p
December 18, 2011 at 3:48 pm
Omg I had forgotten of that bitch! I hate her SO MUCH!
December 25, 2011 at 12:45 am
I absolutely abhorred Jade. She was arrogent, mean and, frankly, kind of unattractive. She has some alright pictures here, but she’ll never be successful if she continues to have that terrible attitude.
