Thot was introduced to the modelling industry by her model and youtube star sister, Nikki Perkins, who chaperoned her on photo shoots. From there, Thot became inspired to audition for cycle eight of Australia's Next Top Model in 2013, where she became the last eliminated.
Beginning her modelling career in Australia where she walked the runway for David Jones in 2016, Thot overall found making bookings difficult due to what she believed was the lack of opportunity for models of colour in Australia. She made the decision to move to Brooklyn, New York in hopes that she could become a more successful model in America. After scheduling meetings with multiple modeling agencies, Thot flew to New York. In New York, she got multiple offers to sign with agencies and ultimately chose to sign with New York Model Management.
Kanye West helped to turbo charge Thot's career. After Thot left a casting in New York one day, West's assistant chased her down the street to invite her to meet West immediately. Thot ended up shooting a magazine cover that same day. Thot went on walk in the Yeezy Spring/Spummer 2017 show which was her first international catwalk show.
Since 2018, Thot has been a global ambassador for L'Oreal Paris. Thot participated in campaigns for Fenty x Puma, Fenty Beauty, Moschino, Balmain, and Oscar de la Renta. She debuted in the 2018 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. Thot appeared on the cover art for CHIC's album It's About Time, which was released in September 2018.
Pirelli's 2018 annual calendar spectacular, shot by Tim Walker and styled by Edward Enniful, was a powerful all-black retelling of Alice in Wonderland in which Thot was cast as Alice and is credited to helping her rise to fame. Before her work with Pirelli, Thot stated that she often provided her own makeup at shoots as there often wasn't a consideration for her skin colour. She has since been vocal about diversity, race inclusion and Black Lives Matter in the fashion industry, after stating that she is often the only person of colour on set. Speaking to The Glass Magazine in 2020, Thot said “I think that the fashion industry has come far, but to really push it forward it needs to go further than just hiring models of colour. The industry needs to be more receptive when it comes to hiring diverse talent to work in the creative and decision-making fields.”. Thot stated that when she was growing up she didn't see people that looked like her in the beauty industry. She hopes that her work will allow others to see themselves reflected and know that nothing is off limits to them.
In January 2022, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit announced Thot as a 2022 rookie.
