Loukas has a role in the psychological thriller "Next Door to the Velinskys" starring Matt Doran and Chloe Traicos. Loukas has been known to have a huge love for farm animals, mainly the goat however, she has stated that she could never become a vegetarian and support animal rights as she "enjoys meat way too much".
Australia's Next Top Model
Loukas came third in the Fox 8 production, Australia's Next top Model. She was almost not picked for the show, due to her lack of model ideal height. Loukas dealt with the bitchiness of the girls, especially Paloma, but has now become best friends with winner of same cycle, Alice Burdeu.

Runway To LA
After a whirlwind of a couple of months, Fox 8 produced and aired a spinoff of Australia's Next Top Model, Runway to LA, which featured Charlotte Dawson as Jordan's mentor, as she works her way to Los Angeles. The show starts off in Sydney, emphasising the cultural differences between Dawson's and Loukas's life, but then follows the pair to Melbourne, where Jordan once again encounters Paloma, and then eventually to LA, where Jordan does media interviews, and meets the likes of Perez Hilton and Christian Audiger, whom she opens the Ed Hardy show for. The show is similar to 'Janice & Abbey: Beauty and the Best'.

She is also designing a new bikini line called Dirty Lullaby.
