Bio
Olivia Lee is an English comedienne, actress and television presenter best known for hosting the reality television series Opening Act, in 2012.
After training at The Central School of Speech and Drama, Lee kick-started her career on the popular BBC children's sitcom, The Basil Brush Show, playing the Brush's girlfriend.
She got her big break on Channel 4's hit comedy show Balls of Steel with her own slot called Prank TV with Miss Lee, where she demonstrated her fearlessness and ability to boldly go where many others would not dare.
Off the back of this success she was offered to write and star in her own comedy vehicle for Channel 4, the hidden camera prank show Olivia Lee's Naughty Bits, which premiered on Channel 4 in 2008.
This led to her own series, Olivia Lee: Dirty, Sexy, Funny – a showcase for Olivia's comic characters which launched Comedy Central UK.
The first season of Dirty Sexy Funny aired in 2010, and proved to be a hit, leading to an even more audacious second series which premiered in April 2011 on Comedy Central.
The USA soon came calling and Lee was invited to regularly appear on NBC's The Tonight Show With Jay Leno where she can be seen providing her own brand of comedy. She also hosted the comedy game show Battle of the Bods which ran for three seasons on the Fox network.
She currently has feature film and sitcom scripts in development with major production companies.
