Bree Amer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bree Amer (born 1983) was a contestant on Big Brother Australia 2004 from the Gold Coast, in Queensland. Amer was the first housemate of Big Brother Australia to re-enter the house when, hours after her eviction, it was discovered the votes were miscalculated.^[1] She was returned to the house the night after, and a few days after that in a special eviction show the actual person to have received the most votes, Wesley Dening, was evicted.

Having worked in theatre restaurants, Amer co-hosted the Big Brother Friday Night Live games in the 2005 series of Big Brother Australia with Mike Goldman and fellow 2004 series housemate Ryan Fitzgerald. The same hosting team went on to front Friday Night Games in early 2006, and later continued as hosts of Big Brother Friday Night Live in the 2006 series of Big Brother.

Bree appeared in the May 2006 issue of Ralph magazine.

Bree also has appeared briefly in an advertisement for Donut King

Bree was a presenter for Channel 10's New Year's Eve 2006 broadcast in Sydney.

On July 29, 2006, The Sydney Morning Herald reported that a doctor noticed a lump on Amer's neck while watching a broadcast of Big Brother Friday Night Live, and urged her to see a doctor.^[2] Amer has since undergone two surgeries for removal of thyroid cancer, and is to have radiation therapy in the coming months.^[3]
