When filming a scene where her character got badly beaten on Battlestar Gallatica, she accidentally got punched in the face by fellow actor Aaron Douglas. (edit) Her favorite directors are Stanley Kubrick, David Lynch and Martin Scorsese. (edit) Nicki has had roles in several movies alongside fellow Battlestar Galactica actor Paul Campbell. (edit) Nicki won "Best Supporting Actress" for the second season of Battlestar Galactica in the internet fan base awards called "The Golden Toaster Awards". (edit) She passionately hated Barbies when she was a child. (edit)

Nicki Clyne: (advice to aspiring actors) I think that the most important thing is to know that you love what you do. There are a lot of times when it is easy to have doubts and get discouraged, but if you know how much you love something, it is always worth it. (edit) Nicki Clyne: (When asked about the new and old series of Battlestar Galactica) I think that both of the shows are a great reflection of their time, so I am a fan of both for different reasons. The original show gave me more inspiration than perspective, and also a great appreciation for the hairstyles. (edit) Nicki Clyne: A guy was with his friend and came up to me at a party and said “Were you the girl in Ill-Fated?” and it was really funny because the guy was very nervous to talk to me and I’ve never experienced that before. People who know me or have worked with me would come up and say “congrats,” but since I already knew them it was just fine. It was completely out of the blue to have someone come up to you having seen the film the day before and they were kind of uncomfortable. It was really amazing to me to make somebody feel like that without even actually knowing them. It was really cool, really nice.
(edit) Nicki Clyne: I’m not an actor who wants to rewrite the script myself and change everything. I’ve done some personal writing. When I graduated high school I was then enrolled to go to film school and thought at that point that I wanted to do anything involved with film. I was obsessed and didn’t care as long as I got to be there. Once I started working and doing acting I thought that this is it, this is where I want to be on this side of the camera. I love this. (edit) Nicki Clyne: I wouldn’t say it’s necessarily hard to leave Cally at the studios, but the role that I play on the show certainly plays into my daily life. I think about her a lot and try to consider what she would be going through and, of course, I feel the physical effects of running away from Cylons for twelve hours straight. (edit)
