Marissa Rancan Big Brother

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—I acknowledge one of the famed Rancan sisters, Marissa Rancan, who recently was a contestant on the 2020 series of Big Brother. Many in this place may have heard of Marissa before her time in the Big Brother, being a household name in the 80's when she and her sisters, Adele and Lisa, brought aerobics to Australia. While Adele and Lisa moved into the Pilates industry, Marissa took up her passion in makeup and many Mosman locals would recognise Marissa from the Mecca store in the Mosman village. During her time in the Big Brother house, Marissa used her fitness expertise to show that she had what it took in the physical competitions, often beating the younger housemates. Marissa ensured her larger-than-life presence was felt in the house, and I am sure that many in my electorate of North Shore were cheering her on from home. Congratulations to Marissa Rancan on reaching the top 10 of Big Brother 2020, and we look forward to seeing what comes next in her future.
