Proclaimed “The Queen of MySpace” by Vanity Fair magazine[1][2] and The Tyra Banks Show,[3][4] Dolce created one of the most popular profiles after joining the MySpace online community shortly after its inception. As MySpace's popularity grew, so did Dolce's. With over a million “friends,” Dolce is one of the site’s top three most popular members out of the over 150 million profiles on the site.[5]
In addition to her MySpace profile, Dolce has also been focusing efforts on acting lessons, photo shoots, public appearances, her website ForBiddeNxo.livejournal.com, and her Destroyed Denim fashion line.[6]
Dolce shot a celebrity pictorial for Playboy magazine. She appeared in the October 2006 issue. The accompanying article documents her online successes. Other media she has appeared in include Stuff, FHM, and Rolling Stone magazines, as well as on The Tyra Banks Show and Jamie Kennedy’s new MTV series Blowin' Up. She has also appeared in the video game, Def Jam: Icon.
Dolce also participates in Axe Deodorant's Gamekillers MySpace campaign. Dolce is on the cover of gothic rock band The 69 Eyes' album Angels.
She was named the Naughtiest Cybervixen on the Spike TV Guys' Choice Awards on June 13, 2007.[7]
