Jolene Anderson (born 26 May 1980 in Kempsey, New South Wales) is an Australian actress and singer. In 2014, she joins the cast of Home and Away as newcomer Neive Devlin.
From 2006 to 2008 she played the character of Erica Templeton on the drama series All Saints. She is also the winner of the second series of celebrity singing competition It Takes Two. In 2016, she played the voice actress of Commander Sara Briggs in the action game Titanfall 2.
Anderson played Erica Templeton on All Saints until 18 November 2008, when her character was pronounced dead, as she had been missing for 3 weeks. She was one of the younger cast members and reputedly popular with the audience.
In the first episode of the 2007 season of It Takes Two, Anderson and her partner David Campbell performed "The Sweet Escape" by Gwen Stefani and scored eights from all four judges giving them a score of 32 and therefore being at the top of the leaderboard for the first episode of the series.
She continued to score highly amongst the judges and was one of the favourites for the entire competition. On 19 June 2007, she became the first contestant in the show to score a perfect ten from all four judges on both performances.
Anderson and Campbell went on to win It Takes Two on 10 July 2007.
Jolene later accepted the role of "Our Girl" in the Andrew Lloyd Webber song cycle Tell Me on a Sunday. The production had mixed reviews, but Jolene's performance was generally well received, in her musical theatre debut.
She hosted Bush Doctors in 2008, introducing and doing voice-overs during the show. It was a successful series that aired from January to March 2008.
