- Nicole Sahebi, breakout cast member of Netflix's Calabasas Confidential, has signed with CAA for representation in the digital space.
- Agent Lydia Fotiadou will lead the relationship, with a focus on growing Sahebi's fashion, beauty, and lifestyle brand deals.
- CAA adds to Sahebi's existing team rather than replacing it: she continues with Underscore Talent for management and align Public Relations for publicity.
- Sahebi brings roughly 5 million combined social followers and existing partnerships with Alo, YSL Beauty, Gucci Beauty, Swarovski, Dior Beauty, and Victoria's Secret.
Nicole Sahebi has signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA) for representation, with the agency looking to expand her reach across fashion, beauty, and lifestyle brand deals. CAA agent Lydia Fotiadou, who heads the agency’s digital, fashion, and beauty group, will lead the relationship.
Sahebi, a Los Angeles native, broke into the mainstream this year as a cast member on Netflix’s Calabasas Confidential, a reality series following a friend group returning to their affluent hometown after high school after college.
She introduced fellow influencer Suede Brooks to the group and became known for staying out of the show’s drama, telling Netflix’s Tudum she’d rather “be cool with everyone.”
Off-screen, Sahebi has built roughly 5 million followers across platforms, including 3.2 million on TikTok and 2.3 million on Instagram. Her content centers on designer try-ons and beauty routines, often filmed from Fashion Week front rows across Europe and the U.S.
She already holds brand partnerships with Alo, YSL Beauty, Gucci Beauty, Swarovski, Dior Beauty, and Victoria’s Secret, and is signed with IMG Models. At 16, she also launched her own streetwear label, DropSix.
CAA is adding to Sahebi’s team rather than replacing it: she continues with Underscore Talent for management and align Public Relations for publicity.
The signing keeps CAA’s 2026 digital and creator roster growing. The agency recently added Australian mother-daughter duo Kat and Déjà Clark for brand partnerships as the pair expand into the U.S., signed musical-comedy duo Grant & Ash of A Twink and a Redhead off a sold-out North American tour, and brought on marketing veteran Bozoma Saint John, whose résumé spans Netflix, Apple Music, and Uber.
Together, the deals point to CAA leaning into talent who’ve already built sizable, brand-friendly audiences on their own.
Takeaways
This reads as an addition, not an overhaul. Sahebi’s day-to-day team at Underscore Talent and align Public Relations stays fully intact; CAA is layering on specifically to scale her fashion and beauty relationships into bigger deals.
It’s also on-brand for CAA’s 2026 signing pattern: pairing existing, brand-friendly followings (Sahebi already counts Dior Beauty, YSL Beauty, and Gucci Beauty among her partners) with an agency built to turn that into larger campaigns and new categories.
The timing lines up neatly, too. Sahebi signs just as Calabasas Confidential hands her the widest audience of her career, which makes this less a coincidence and more a calculated momentum.
Does CAA push Sahebi toward TV or streaming opportunities beyond straight brand endorsements?
Will her existing luxury partnerships with YSL Beauty, Dior Beauty, and Gucci Beauty expand or renew now that CAA is in the mix? Could this open the door for other Calabasas Confidential castmates to land agency representation?
