Template:Bree

Friend and love interest to Daniel (a.k.a. Danielbeast), and queen of the "Proving Science Wrong" skits, the backstory of this vivacious young homeschooler has been shrouded in much mystery, each episode revealing bits and pieces of her life and the current situations she is facing. Much speculation has been put forth in the viewing community about a religion she is reluctant to speak openly about, a mysterious ceremony in the near future she has been chosen to be a participant of, and the current conflict surrounding Daniel, her parents, and her religion.

Family

It has been implied in the episodes that her parents are very strict. In a recent episode Bree revealed that her mother and father met in London during the intermission of the play 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead'. Apparently the two got into a heated argument about the central theme in the play, and in the words of Bree, her father was "smitten like a kitten". In the same episode, How My Parents Met, Bree also divulged that her father studied medicine at Oxford.

Her parents are strictly religious. This is one reason that Bree is homeschooled. In the video, Learning To Drive, Bree tells Daniel that her parents are not Order of Dendera, presumably a reference to her religion.

Travels

In the episode "Mysteries of My Past... REVEALED!, Bree gave us a little rundown of all her travels. According to Bree, she was born in America, and moved to New Zealand when she was eight years old. While there, her family lived in a commune next to a small town. At age ten, Bree's family visited the Northern Territory of Australia. At the age of twelve, they moved to Nottinghamshire England, and resided there for two years. After England, they finally settled down in their home in the United States.

School

Bree has mentioned many times that she is homeschooled, but she has referenced in episodes that she previously attended traditional public schooling at least two times. First in New Zealand, where she was pulled from public schools after her parents witnessed the lack of discipline and again in the United States. In school she made two friends, Cassie and Daniel. Cassie was uncomfortable with Bree's religion and stopped hanging out with her after she left public school. Daniel and Bree stayed best friends.

Bree's parents pulled her out when she became the subject of ridicule, rumors, and hostilities from fellow classmates. In Poor Pluto Bree says that students made fun of her for asking too many astronomy questions in a science class. They started calling her Stargirl and when she continued asking questions they suggested she was having a relationship with the teacher. Daniel later said in I Want to Take Bree to a Party! that he did not think the teasing was that big of a deal. Bree has remarked in comments to her YouTube videos that she'd like to go back to public school.

She seems to be interested in astronomy, quantum physics, history, and evolution (another possible hint to her family's profession). Her studies are quite advanced for a secondary education level.

Religion

Not much is known for sure about Bree's religion but it has been speculated that it is or is related to Thelema, it is also the source of a great deal of debate because of its role in Bree's ritual.

Bree's bedroom

Most of the early Lonelygirl15 videos take place in Bree's bedroom.

Other Friends

During the latest enrollment at public school, she befriended a young woman named Cassie, who was in Daniel's class (although he doesn't recognize the name). Bree says that everyone made fun of Cassie and that they used to walk around the track together. They initially spent time together, but Cassie was uncomfortable with Bree's religion. After Bree returned to homeschooling, she and Cassie stopped spending time together.

At a party, Bree met Daniel's Friends Paul and Andrea. She liked them a lot and the foursome made plans to go bowling together. It is unclear if they actually went bowling.

In preparing for her ceremony, Bree began spending time with Lucy, her "helper". Lucy is a member of her religion, like a counselor, and has helped Bree prepare for her ceremony.

While in England, she became good friend's with a dog. The dog's owner, later revealed to be Gemma, has begun communicating with Bree from her home in London.

Bree's stuffed animal friends are P. Monkey, Owen, and Thor, and she utilizes them as puppets or props in various episodes. She also has a hot pink feather boa she is quite fond of.

Other

Bree is played by Jessica Lee Rose, and her well-sculptured eyebrows were a major source of speculation about whether she was real or an actress before the actress's true identity was revealed.

Bree's journeys from her birth in America, moving to New Zealand in early childhood and coming back to America in her teens also mirrors that of Jessica Rose's travels (and explains her occasional accent).

In a post on lonelygirl15.com[1], a user going by the name The Deacons referred to Bree as the Urim and Thummim. It is not known if this is in any way canonical nor what it may imply about her future significance to the Order of Denderah.
