The SkepTick gave a talk a few weeks ago, and, just for fun, he copied down some predictions for 2008 that PsychicNikki had put on her website. One section was titled “Death Watch/Health Watch” – with names of people who might have a higher chance of dying that year. A few days later (January 22), Heath Ledger died. Returning to PsychicNikki’s website on the 23rd, he discovered Ledger’s name added to the “Death Watch/Health Watch” predictions for 2008. Even worse for her, the google cache of her website still showed Ledger’s name missing from the list.
Psychics: showing that they can predict the future by retroactively changing their predictions. And when her website claims that she’s “in the top 1%” of psychics, I wouldn’t be surprised if that were true.

Bhutto died in 2007, not 2008.
It took me a second to figure out what you were referring to, Vjatcheslav. But, yes, “Benazir Bhutto” is listed on the 2008 list even though she died Dec 27, 2007. I don’t know when Nikki wrote the list, or put it up on her website. Theoretically, it might’ve been written up in the middle of December 2007. Hard to say whether Nikki added Bhutto to the list after her death, or if it was just an educated guess — there have been a lot of assassination attempts against leaders in Pakistan. I can think of recent assassination attempts against three other Pakistani leaders off the top of my head, and I notice Nikki has “President Masharaff” [sic] on the list as well. (Apparently, her psychic abilities don’t extend to spelling people’s names correctly.)
Also notice her list seems to consist of old people, who’s bound to die sometime soon, and of controvercial or political figures, who’d naturally have more enemies than most people, and a higher risk of assasination. Impressive? I don’t think so. With a list like that you should get a winner sooner or later, phsycic powers or no.
Why can’t these psychics ever predict the death of some random joe who is in perfect health, has no power, and is innocent of any controvercy? And naturally, with DETAILS. Accurately predict that healthy, innocent random joe is going to die from a falling airplane engine on May 2, 2009, at 14:37 and I will be impressed.
Thanks for helping spread the word. I have a more recent post which shows she predicted that Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz would get married and have a baby in 2004. Then she deleted that prediction soon after the word got out they had split.
BTW, love your blog!

Greetings from a SubGenius. For the past two years, my own wiki (The High Weirdness Project) has been keeping track of “psychic” predictions, in order to see how accurate they turn out to be. I’ve been keeping .PDF screenshots of the Web pages of the psychics in particular, though I haven’t placed these .PDF files online due to the possibility that it could cause copyright problems. As part of our ongoing project, I made .PDF screenshots of Nikki’s predictions page in December of 2006 and December of 2007.
On 12/22/06 (at 8:29 AM), Nikki’s prediction space for 2007 stated the following:
“Health Watch and Death: I foresee (sic) assassination attempts on Tony Blair, Condoleeza Rice, and President Bush. Those who face health issues and death are: Bill Clinton, Tammy Faye Baker, Hilary Rodham Clinton, Laura Bush, Barbara Bush, George Bush Senior, Vice President Cheney, David Letterman, Loretta Lynn, Larry King, Kirk Douglas, Nancy Reagan, Gerald Ford, Fidel Castro, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Luciano Pavarotti, Sadam Hussein (sp), Courtney Love, Loretta Lynn (again), Tony Blair, Aretha Franklin, Bobby Brown, Vice President Dick Cheney (again), Michael Jackson, Billy Graham, Sophia Loren, Gerald Ford, David Blaine, Omar Sharif, Anna Nicole Smith, Keith Richard (sp), Panela Anderson Lee, Courtney Love (again), Dick Clark, Mohammed Ali (sp), Michael J. Fox, Nelson Mandela, Annette Funicello, Jerry Lewis, Doris Day, Farah Fawcett, Wayne Newton, Roger Smith, and Elizabeth Taylor.”
On 12/28/2007 (at 9:10 AM), Nikki’s prediction page for 2007 gave the exact same listing for “Health Watch and Death;” she had not added or removed any names from the list. However, here is the listing from her 2008 page, from that same screenshot on 12/28/07 at 9:10 AM:
“Death Watch and Health Watch: Annette Funicello, Hillary Clinton (sp), Doris Day, Willie Nelson, Pamela Lee Anderson, Loretta Lynn, Ted Kennedy, Unice Shriver, Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Benazir Bhutto, President Masaraff (sp), Billy Graham, Jerry Lewis, Chareleton Heston (sp), Tony Curtis, Debbie Reynolds, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Nelson Mandela, Farah Fawcett, Nancy Reagan, Dick Cheney, Elizabety Taylor, Larry King, Suzanne Plesette, Mick Jagger, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kirk Douglas, Hugh Hefner, Shirley Temple Black, Alex Trebek, and French President Sarkozy (sp).”
Note that this was one day after Benazir Bhutto’s assassination. As you stated, Heath Ledger is not on this list.

If any, and I mean ANY, psychic was really legit, they wouldn’t be wasting their time running websites and performing personal consulations, they’d be working the lotteries and breaking all the Vegas casinos.
Absolutely I know if I had that power I would be hitting the lotto every week
Charlatans. I don’t see the benefit of doing this other than a starvation for attention.

Hello All.
I the new user.
The leaving aside is assured it of 100 %,mod Blog..HERE http://digg.com/news/entertainment/halle_berry_nude_photo_nsfw. It was appropriate to you?
She is afraid to take the Randi Challenge because she knows and this prediction is true ,that she will be found out to be a fraud.
Psychic Nikki’s 2012 presidential psychic prediction is a joke. What is more surprising is how all the forums 3 days before the election updated her prediction after she scans all of the other psychics websites to see the general consensus. I’m not shocked by what you’re revealing about this heavily made up show pony. I checked her Canadian psychic predictions at the start of 2011 and did a screen shot and then checked them again a couple of months later to find she was using other worlds psychics predictions and claiming them as her own.
The Canadian public are being taken for a ride. My bet is she checks all the other psychics around the world who update their predictions months before she decided to predict an event and then when it comes true she places on her website she predicted it first. There is an Australian psychic that updated all of her predictions months ahead of Nikki and guess what Psychic Nikki is claiming she predicted the events. I wouldn’t trust this lady on the radio waves. She’s a phoney.
Hmm…..interesting… well back in the early 90’s I had the pleasure of meeting Psychic Nikki. For 2 1/2 hours we sat and she talked and wrote 56 pages of names, predictions past events. . She paid for lunch in Yorkville and the cost was $150. What she wrote down and told me, made the hair on ,my arms stand up. Names… actual names of a company I had worked for, trouble with the law, the date of my sisters kidney operation as a child. That my b/f was seeing prostitutes as I lived with him. (Turned out true) Many, many other bang on predictions, but the one that really stands out is this. She said she saw a “black candle” burning…symbolizing death. Did I want to know? I said yes. She then said she saw a teenage pregnancy, (then reassured me it wasn’t my teenage daughter) and then a death… Close to 3 years later, my 17 year old niece became pregnant, and when she was due to have a C section, she had a bath, a seizure, hit her head and drowned at 17, including her full term 9 pound baby also died. That pretty much did it for me. She also permitted me to call her on the phone for up to 3 months after the reading with questions. I thought for sure she was the REAL THING! I am sorry to hear all these negative comments. I thought she was AMAZING>
Your comment Cheryl is very helpful. I have seen bad psychocs only interested in money, but i have also seen an amazing one, who did not charged me at all! And she was dead on! Told me how i was going to meet my future husband, told me i was gonna live on the middle east (was never interested in ME) and so on! I don t like when people discredit clairvoyance because they had a bad experience. I think ig is like in everything. You have good peiple and bad ones. I d love to see her. How much did she charge you if i can ask.
