This Young Realtor's Home Tours Keep Going Viral Because They're Really, Really Hilarious
Breanna Banaciski (@tampa_bre) is a 30-year-old Realtor in Tampa, Florida, whose home tour TikToks are so funny they keep going viral — even among people who have absolutely zero plans of ever being able to own a home. (It's me, I'm people.) For example, Breanna started a video about a $1.3 million home by deadpanning, "Please share this with your rich friends. I'm gonna share it with the neck beards and my DMs who keep offering me money to see pictures of my feet. Joke's on you, b****. I have athlete's foot." She continued, saying, "I am way too poor to be in this house right now. Seriously, though, when I was in elementary school and they would have those canned food drives, they'd be like, 'Breanna, why haven't you brought in any cans?' I'm like, these are going to my house. Write my initials on the top of the can." At another home, she quipped, "There's no garage. But let's be honest, you don't need to keep your 2011 Toyota Camry safe." Later in the tour, she said, "Feel like a 1950s housewife. I'm waiting on my husband to come in here and tell me why I shouldn't make as much money as him." But my personal favorite of her videos is this home tour, where it feels like she's really going hard after one specific individual who owns a lifted truck. "This carport is tall enough to fit your jacked-up F150, but not tall enough to fill the void of when your father left." She went on to say, "Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, $660,000 shut the f*** up. What do you want me to do? It's two minutes from Bayshore Boulevard. You're the one who overextended yourself on an F150 payment. $950 a month. Imagine coming home to this after a long day of overcompensating." And in the comments, people are really loving her approach. Like, we are here, impatiently waiting to binge her show. HGTV, do your thing!! She's truly putting the "real" in real estate. I had to learn more about how Breanna got into real estate, what her peers think about her unconventional sales technique, and her serious recommendations for people in the current housing market, so I reached out to her via email. Breanna told me that she's only been working in real estate for nine months, but she had transferable skills from her former career. "I've worked in sales the majority of my life, but hated being stuck inside an office all day. Real estate was a way for me to escape the mundane 9-to-5 job. It also gave me flexibility to travel, which I love doing." She also said that she never expected her videos to go so viral, reaching people far from her home base in Florida. "I'm shocked by how many views I've gotten in this short period of time. I didn't think my 'stand-up comedy' routines would resonate with so many people." And she says that her peers in real estate seem to enjoy her home tours just as much as renters like me. "I have received an overwhelming amount of support from realtors and clients. Everyone really seems to enjoy my videos. I've been told that I'm 'a breath of fresh air.'" Breanna also shared her honest advice for anyone looking to buy a home in 2025. "Work with people that you trust and that have your best interest in mind. The home buying process can be overwhelming and sometimes tiring. Don't buy a home that you aren't 100% sure of. This is one of the biggest purchase decisions you'll ever make. Take your time and enjoy it." Finally, she shared her tips for anyone who's hoping their content will break through like her TikToks have. "If you're a creator or a business looking to grow your social media presence, start creating content that you would want to watch. Don't overthink the analytics. There aren't any 'hacks' that will magically make you grow. Create content that you genuinely love, shows who you are, and the rest will fall into place." Follow Breanna on TikTok.

A one-teen prom on Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula brings small community together
MAIN BROOK — Breanna Bromley-Clarke may be the sole graduate of her all-grades school on Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula, but her prom helped bring many in her community together. The 18-year-old celebrated the end of her high-school years on May 2 in a pink dress she says was inspired by the main character of the Barbie movie. Its vibrant colour shone as Bromley-Clarke delivered her valedictory address at the Mary Simms All-Grade School in Main Brook. In some ways, her event in the community five hours drive north of Corner Brook, N.L., was similar to graduations at larger schools across the province. During the day, photographs were taken of the young woman in her stunning dress. She proceeded to the gym, which was fully decorated, and roughly 85 guests sat down to a delicious meal. The valedictorian's 10-minute speech included gratitude, memories and a description of plans to attend nursing school at the Memorial University campus in Corner Brook. Bromley-Clarke even quoted from William Shakespeare's character Brutus from the play "Julius Caesar:" "It's not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves" — a line she learned while studying English in an online course offered by the provincial Education Department. But Mayor Ian Brenton said in an interview Friday the local graduation ceremonies are major occasions for this community of about 200 people, which takes pride in each of the 16 students in the kindergarten to Grade 12 school. "It brings the town together for a celebration of our youth and that's an important thing," said Brenton, who said he's particularly proud of Bromley-Clarke, who over the past 12 years has raised about $45,000 for the Janeway children's hospital in St. John's, N.L. The school's principal, Amanda Parrill, said she finds the ceremonies honouring a single student as meaningful as gatherings at larger schools she's known. "It was a very personal celebration for this single graduate. Breanna actually presented flowers to the special women who attended her graduation. For example, her Mom, other family members, teachers, her diabetic nurse and dietitian, all received carnations from Breanna," she wrote in an email on Saturday. In an interview Friday, Bromley-Clarke described "pros and cons" to the one-person event. "It was nice in terms of decorating (the gymnasium) as there was nobody to argue with over my choices," she said, laughing. However, she acknowledged missing out on some of "those popular things that people at larger schools do." There was no seeing the sunrise together with classmates after late-night gatherings. And there's little point in having a "senior skip day," when graduating students collectively miss a day of school, with no classmates to spend it with. There will be no 20-year-later reunions to recall a shared night. But the young woman made the best of it. Together with her family she travelled to Guelph, Ont., in the summer to purchase the spectacular dress. Money was raised for the event with a yard sale and ticket sales. She invited members of a volleyball team from another school 70 kilometres to the west, which she'd joined due to a lack of players at her own school. The colours and the theme of the decorations all fell to the graduate and her mother, Regina Bromley-Clarke, and her father, Scott Clarke. Local businesses were well-represented at her graduation, including the convenience store owner and two hunting and guiding outfitters. Brenton, who is an advocate for economic development in the region, said that alongside pride he feels a little sadness at the small graduations, as he realizes it signals the declining fortunes of some Northern Peninsula communities. He said it motivates him to work harder to attract new businesses in hopes the number of children and teens might gradually rise. "Honestly," he said, "it makes me sad to see how small the school has grown." "I mean, nobody wants to see these towns dwindle and die." The young graduate said she doesn't know where she will head after university, admitting it may not be back to the picturesque, small town, far from urban life. But she won't forget May 2, 2025, and her special night. "I've always felt, and will always have, a sense of pride in my school and community, even though it's small," she said. — By Michael Tutton in Halifax.

American Idol finale: Are Breanna Nix, John Foster, Jamal Roberts married? Family details here
American Idol Season 23's three finalists, Breanna Nix, John Foster, and Jamal Roberts, brought their A game to the stage on Sunday. Foster sang a song for his late friend, Maggie Dunn, who was killed in a 2023 accident. Several social media users and fans wondered about the finalists' family details. Each contestant's journey was bolstered by the support of their spouses and children, whose presence added emotional depth to their performances. Breanna Nix, a 25-year-old singer from Texas, has leaned heavily on her husband, Austin Nix, throughout her Idol run. Austin was a constant presence, from her audition to the finale, often seen in the audience with their son, Emerson. Emerson, a toddler, stole hearts with his support, occasionally joining Austin to cheer for Breanna. Breanna dedicated her finale performance of 'Reflection' to Emerson. The Nix family's bond, rooted in their shared faith and Texas roots, fueled Breanna's drive, with Austin's encouragement helping her navigate the competition's pressures. John Foster, a 27-year-old from Louisiana, sang for his girlfriend, Brooklyn Bourque. He has no known children. Jamal Roberts, a 27-year-old PE teacher from Meridian, Mississippi, brought his family front and center. Married to an unnamed wife who maintains a low profile, Jamal is a father of three daughters: Harmoni (6), Lyrik (4), and newborn Gianna Grace, born in April 2025. Harmoni and Lyrik frequently appeared at Idol events. Breanna Nix: Text 9 to 21523 John Foster: Text 12 to 21523 Jamal Roberts: Text 7 to 21523 Voting opened at the start of the live finale broadcast on May 18, 2025, at 8:00 PM ET/5:00 PM PT and closed near the end of the show, approximately 10:00 PM ET. Each voter can cast up to 10 votes per finalist across all methods (e.g., 10 for Breanna, 10 for John, 10 for Jamal), totaling a maximum of 30 votes if supporting all three.
