Template:Person2 Bree a.k.a. lonelygirl15 is the star of the Lonelygirl15 video series, friend and (past) 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

Freeze frames of Bree from her video blogs.

It has been implied in the episodes that Bree's parents were very strict. In one episode, Bree revealed that her mother and father met in London during the intermission of the play 'Rosencrantz & 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 was one reason that Bree was homeschooled. In the video, Learning To Drive, Bree told Daniel that her parents are not Order of Denderah, presumably a reference to her religion.

In My Dad Said..., viewers learned that Bree's parents were not actually her biological parents. This was apparently revealed to Bree soon before her father was shot, and may have been what she and her father were talking about in The Unthinkable Happened. Because she was still mourning for the loss of the man she knew as her father, Bree wasn't very open and didn't really discuss her thoughts on the fact that the people she called her parents weren't her biological parents. However, she stated that she won't be talking to her mother anytime soon - it is undetermined whether this is because she is upset her parents lied to her, or if she is unable to contact her due to safety concerns. Additionally, it is undetermined whether this has anything to do with the Order, or if Bree's parents simply wanted a child.

As of now, we do not know who Bree's biological parents are.

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 was homeschooled, but she 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 had 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 father's profession). Her studies are quite advanced for a secondary education level.

Religion

Not much is known for sure about Bree's religion, which was the source of a great deal of debate because of its role in The Ceremony (ritual). Fans initially speculated that it was related to Thelema, but this was disavowed by Gemma in Learning Egyptian, who claimed that it is not a religion at all. Rather, Bree's "religion" is a type of secret society known as the Order.

Bree's bedroom

Probably the best view of Bree's workstation that we'll ever get.

Most of the early Lonelygirl15 videos took place in Bree's bedroom. Because her camera was on her computer, and her computer faced one side of the room, we normally only saw one side of the room. In the video What Did Daniel and Dad Talk About?, the webcam was carried by Bree as she followed Daniel around the room, helping us see every angle of her room. The only good shot we might ever get of Bree's workstation (her desk and computer) is at the right, a snapshot taken from the video.

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 had helped Bree prepare for her ceremony.

While in England, she became good friends with a dog named Sascha. Sascha's owner, later revealed to be Gemma, had begun communicating with Bree from what was thought to be her home in London, but ended up being in California.

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.

Diet

In order to participate in The Ceremony Bree had to eat a special diet.


Bree's injections

For a discussion of Bree's injections Bree's injections go here. Bree was also taking Iron pills which are thought to be a compliment to the injections.

Etymology

  • Bree is the anglicized form of the Irish Gaelic female name Brígh, which means "power" or "high." As "Brigh" means power/high, fans speculate that Bree's name may refer to her importance to the Order. It may be that her ceremony was designed as an initiation into a high position entailing power.
