Renny describes herself as vivacious, witty, passionate, dynamic and entertaining. She's a proud New Orleans socialite, the life of the party, who loves hanging out in the French Quarter with her family as well as friends. She claims to have outfits, as well as wigs, for any and all social occasions. Among the things that she is most proud of was being chosen as an NFL Saints dancer in 1977 out of the 2,000 girls that applied. She likes a wide variety of music including Soul, Pop and Jazz. While she has never been an actor or a singer, she especially enjoys showing off her Elvis, Judy Garland and Marilyn Monroe impersonations at parties.

Renny studied at the University of New Orleans as well as the Vidal Sassoon Academy in London, the Jingles International Hair Academy in New York City and the Paul Mitchell Institute in Costa Mesa, CA. She currently operates her own hair salon.

Renny has been happily married for 27 years, has two grown children, and says her husband has always encouraged her to do the things she loves. She thinks the separation between them while she is in the House will be okay as her husband has traveled quite a lot for business. She describes her perfect romantic partner as sensitive, sexy, brave, has a sense of humor and is a romantic at heart. She had a great relationship with her mother who served as her receptionist at her hair salon. Her dad was a World War II veteran.

Her birth date is July 29, 1954.

i got my eye on Renny [i think i am going to like her] and with her dad being a world war 2 vet, she just might team up with Jerry, they should have alot to talk about!..so i am picking [for now] Renny as one of my favs [as far as the women HGS go] just got to wait and see if i really do like her!

Okay, first impression...

Right there with ya sunkiss36, when I first saw her picture I got a good vibe as well. Seems quite the...open-minded...person, especially her views on love and marriage...interesting...unfortunately, the longer I listen to her voice in the interview, the more I'm reminded of how Shelia's voice grated on me after just a few weeks. "Whatevah it takes for me ta get theya, I'ma get theya"...I LOVE it, perfect BB attitude! The straight-forwardness she has in the interview is going to be real fun to watch in the House if she keeps it. She seems to be about as subtle as a brick through a plate glass window. Yep, Renny's made my top 3 as of now...

I was thinking I would like her from her picture. But know that I saw the interview, her voice is really annoying,she reminds me of that puppet called "madame"(I think that is the right name).

LOL, my sons heard Remy and asked me if I was listening to Judge Judy.

LMAO! danielsmom, it is her accent, being from N.O, and all. ya! know! her voice might get on my last nerve also, but i am going to keep her in my top 3 [for now] i dont think Renny is going to take any crap from the other HGS ya! know! lol

OMGosh danielsmom, you are right! She does remind me of Madame.

She's totally cute and absolutely reminds me of my college roommate - has that whole southern belle thing happening but nobody's going to tell her what to do!! Half the backbone I have now, I credit to that roommate, so I think I love Renny. I could do without some of the silly faces though...she kept making me giggle!

Kimbubbly- Every time I see the CBS video about the housemates and says her line about being young to an 80 year old I see her face and crack up. And thne when I watched her CBS2 interview I saw that she does that a lot. I love that face! it amuses me, haha

I like that they're mixing it up with a quirky older woman in the house, but I am just not feeling Renny. I don't know what it is but she is definitely not in my top house guests. But I do think that she will make the house a more fun place for most.

I'm mixed so far here. She looks like she could be a lot of fun to watch and cheer for. I think I need to see her in action before I make a call on this one.

I didn't hear a LA accent at all but one that sounded more like Brooklyn...

I was hoping she would have a smart strategy...But would love to see a "mean" person so she can put them in their place....
Over-all she is ok but will have to see her in action to really know if she will make my list to root for..I do think she will be either loved or hated...
