Jessica Lee Rose (born April 26, 1987) is the actress that plays the character of Bree in the Lonelygirl15 video series. The discovery that Bree was played by Jessica prompted The Creators to come forward and tell their story.
Pre LG15
Originally from Salisbury, Maryland, much of her upbringing was in New Zealand. Jessica attended Mount Maunganui College in Mt. Maunganui, New Zealand, from 2000-2003. Her 2003 graduation date has prompted some to speculate that Jessica was actually born before 1987.
After graduation, Jessica moved to Auckland to study acting at Studio 111. She also signed at one point with the Clyne Modeling Agency. Her resume with Clyne states that she appeared in a KFC commercial in 2004. She also starred in a short film Dearly Beloved which was produced by the New Zealand Short Film Academy.
Jessica's parents divorced, and Jessica moved back to Salisbury, Md. in May 2005 with her father and soon enrolled in the New York Film Academy at Universal Studios in Burbank, California. While at NYFA, she had roles in several student productions, later posted to YouTube by MadMoikey. She starred in Unleash The Fury and In The Deep.
Child of Anchor Cove
Jessica was living in Los Angeles, after graduating from NYFA in April 2006, and looking for work as an actress when she found a listing for an independent film project called The Children of Anchor Cove on Craigslist. She was one of about 80 actresses that auditioned for the lead part. After two call backs, she was offered the role of Bree.
Jessica was asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement and was told that the project would consist of a series of videos released over the Internet. She was intially disappointed, hesitant, and almost turned down the project. In film school, actresses were warned to be on the lookout for scams, but she felt she had little to lose and after looking at YouTube and other video blogs she became more comfortable with the project.
She was originally not being paid for the project but as lonelygirl15 became more popular she and co-star Yousef Abu-Taleb received a salary so they would not have to work as waiters to support themselves.
