Noraishah "Nasha" Abdul Aziz (born 14 May 1971) is a Malaysian model and actress. She was born in Kampung Pandan, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Modelling career

Aziz started her career as a model in 1989. She was introduced to the modelling industry by actress and model Tiara Jacquelina. She continued to build her fame as a model in Malaysia and declined an offer of a New York modelling contract because of religious and cultural factors. She modelled in Hong Kong and London and then branched out into acting.

Nasha was given the title of Malay number one supermodel and an icon. She appeared in commercials for products such as Nescafe Classic, Avon, Pantene and Panasonic. Nasha was the face of Avon, Polo Hauss and Polo Ralph Lauren.

Acting career

Nasha began her acting career in 1995, starring in Kad Cinta alongside Hairie Othman. The movie was directed and produced by Julie Dahlan. She rose to fame in 1998 after starring in a popular TV Series Hanya Dikau alongside Rosyam Nor and Hairie Othman. She was also well liked for her character in the Soap Opera, Idaman.

In 1998 Nasha received an acting offer from director Yusof Haslam to play Effa, a prostitute, in the movie Bara. The role was previously turned down by Malay film primadona, Erra Fazira. The movie proved to be a stepping stone for Nasha when she was nominated in the Best Actress category and won Best New Actress at the 13th Malaysia's Film Festival (FFM13).
