She worked as a personal assistant and was looking for a second position. Nichole went on Craiglist, found a job posting and applied for it. However, she did not realise she had applied to appear on TV. Ultimately, her role in Pawn Stars began in 2012 during the show’s fifth season.

Why was Olivia Black fired from Pawn Stars?
The actress had to say goodbye to the cast and crew before her second season on the television series ended. According to Screen Rant, the production company Leftfield Pictures fired Olivia after revealing photos of her from her days as a pinup model surfaced online.
The firing was justified because the photos violated a rule prohibiting cast members from having racy pictures of them circulating online.

In an interview with Fox News, Pawn Stars' head Rick Harrison revealed that he offered Dene the opportunity to continue working for the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop as long as she did not appear in front of the cameras.
I never fired her. She is out doing her own thing now. The production company did not want her working there anymore. What she does in her personal life is her business.
Black told Fox News that she was too shocked to ask why she had been fired.
I do not know why I am no longer part of the show. They did not state it, and I did not ask. I was just in such shock that I did not think to ask.
While several petitions were launched on Change.org to bring Nichole back to the show, they were unsuccessful.
In 2013, Olivia sued Leftfield Pictures for wrongful termination because she allegedly believed that the company’s intolerance to such photos was only subjected to female actresses. Nonetheless, it is unclear what became of the lawsuit.
