When she moved into the entertainment industry, Nikki created the famous, "The Nikki Haskell Show". She produced and hosted over 300 episodes, and her show blazed the path for other reality and talk shows to follow. Nikki was an avid-traveler, an adventurer in her quest to cover the most recognized events. She interviewed hundreds and thousands of celebrities across various industries including names like Liza Minnelli, Tony Curtis, Donald, and Ivana Trump, Jeremy Irons and President and Madame Marcos, and Peter Sellers from the Hotel du Cap.
