Nyadak “Duckie” Thot

Nyadak “Duckie” Thot is an up-and-coming 24-year old model from South Sudan. She was raised in Australia, and she earned her distinct nickname during her formative years. She received the nickname “Duckie” because her classmates and teachers had a hard time pronouncing her first name right. Besides her name, Duckie also had a tough time blending in as she had an entirely different skin tone than everyone around her.


Duckie hoped to find success as a model in Australia, but unfortunately, her dark skin tone was holding her back from getting modeling gigs. Eventually, she moved to New York where she was able to sign as a model with New York Modeling Management. You could say that Duckie’s decision to move to the Big Apple was an excellent investment for her modeling career. Expect to see more of her as she continues to put together an outstanding modeling resume.
