    Nidia…classy or trashy? If you ask her or her boyfriend, Jaime Noble, They'll tell you it's class all the way. Most everyone else, However, doesn't quite see her as the epitome of Glamorous distinction. They prefer to describe her as a trailer-trash vixen trying in vain to act with class.
    But Nidia remains oblivious to those who might mock her refinement. Ever since Noble inherited all that money from his uncle, her life has changed drastically. Nidia claims that she now hobnobs only with the rich and famous, and that she's left her old habits behind. She is first class all the way.
    Her words and actions on Smackdown! Speak for themselves, so we'll let you decide what Nidia really is. Fortunately, we were able to track her down at one of her favorite restaurants and hear her story. Classy or trashy? You be the judge.

WWE Magazine: Do you consider yourself a classy woman?
Nidia: I'm very, very classy. I brought myself class. Once Jamie got all that money, we were able to afford all kinds of classy things. I got me a genuine imitation fur coat, loaded up on Spam, and now I drink that fancy wine that comes in the box.

WWE Magazine: Where can you buy class?
Nidia: At the local pawn shop. They have all sorts of fancy stuff there.

WWE Magazine: Since you are so refined now, how would you compare yourself to the other divas? Are they a bit low-brow for you?
Nidia: I consider myself above the rest of them now. They certainly aren't as classy as me. I mean, look at what I wear, and look at what some of them wear. There's no comparison. But it's not all bad, because not everybody can be as well mannered as I am. Sometimes I try and help them out - Torrie for instance - but they don't catch on. I guess they just don't have it in them to be so classy.

WWE Magazine: Did you go finishing school, or get some instruction on how to carry yourself with such dignity?
Nidia: After Jamie got all that money, we started going to fancy restaurants like Applebee's, Cracker barrel and Chi-Chi's and I picked up the habits fast. I'm a natural when it comes to this stuff.

WWE Magazine: Where did you go to college?
Nidia: I didn't really need to go to college. I mean, I went to high school, didn't I?

WWE Magazine: Do you have a favorite type of Caviar?
Nidia: Spam.

WWE Magazine: Are you sure?
Nidia: Yeah. I just love Spam.

WWE Magazine: Okay. Do you like to eat it straight out of the can, or do you like to put it in a bowl and mix it with something? Prehaps some Hamburger Helper?
Nidia: Well, Jamie and I went to this pottery story, and we made a fancy plate. It's light blue, and it's got little puppies on it. I put my Spam on there and eat it with crackers, It's so good. And when we have guests, we can empty one of those super-sized cans on the plate, so everyone can enjoy it.

WWE Magazine: What do you like to drink with dinner, or to wind down with at the end of the day?
Nidia: Like I told you before, I like the fancy wine from the box. Sometimes I drink a beer. I used to drink it out of the can, but now I have thiws big plastic glass that I drink out of. And I like to use a straw.

WWE Magazine: If a man were to have a chance with you, what kind of standards would he have to measure up to?
Nidia: He'd have to be top class all the way, like Jamie. Jamie knows how to treat a lady. He is a true gentleman. He's got it all: He's good-looking, smart and total class.

WWE Magazine: Do you have any role models who you want to emulate?
Nidia: Anna Nicole Smith. She's perfect. She went from rags to riches just like me, and is a total class act.

WWE Magazine: What was your upbringing like?
Nidia: When I was growing up, I was a little poor, and we lived in a single trailer. Then, I met Jamie. After he won the Cruiserweight Championship, he brought me a double-wide. We can drive our car right up the lawn to the house,too. It's awesome!

WWE Magazine: Was the house the nicest present you ever received?
Nidia: It was, until Jamie bought me a diamond necklace, and I got myself the fur coat

WWE Magazine: Where's your favorite place to go shopping? Are you a Saks 5th Avenue girl or do you prefer another store?
Nidia: Well, my favorite store used to be Wal-Mart. I just love it. You can get such nice satin pants there. But after we got all that money, I've moved on up to Target.

WWE Magazine: Ever since you became one of the rich and famous, I'm sure a lot of people have tried to become friends with you, and I'm sure a lot of your old friends have tried desperately to cling on to you. How have you handled that situation?
Nidia: I try to keep my friends, but they don't understand. I take them to restaurants like AppleBee's and they're just so out of place. You know how those trailer-park people are. They have no class. They're so dirty.As for new friends, I have so many now, and they're so classy. I met them at the pawn shop, The county fair and all sorts of fancy places. We eat Spam, drink beer and just have so much fun. They are people with taste just like me, So we get along great.
