Nabilla was first hired by a modelling agency when she was 14 years old. In 2011, she appeared in TF1’s reality TV show ‘l’Amour est aveugle’. In 2013, she flew to Miami to shoot ‘Les Anges de la Téléréalité 5: Paradise’. In the fourth episode, Nabilla got into an argument with a participant regarding the purchasing of shampoo. During the argument, Benattia said ‘Euh, allô! non, mais allô, quoi. T’es une fille et t’as pas de shampooing? Allô. Allô! Je sais pas, moi, vous me recevez? T’es une fille, t’as pas de shampooing? C’est comme si je dis: t’es une fille, t’as pas de cheveux!’ The line ‘Non, mais allô quoi’ was subsequently used in ads from brands such as IKEA and Carrefour. It gave rise to a number of parody videos viewed millions of times on YouTube. As a result of her reality TV fame, she was given her own television reality show that aired on NRJ 12.
