Biography
Scottish comedian. She rose to prominence via the stand-up comedy circuit, and was a regular on British television in the 1990s.
Cameron was born in Dundee and is adopted; her birth mother (whose name Cameron keeps secret) was from North Shields and her biological father is shown as "unknown" on the adoption records. In 2006, on a Channel 4 programme In Your Dreams, she spoke of her upbringing in Edinburgh's Grindlay Street and of moving with her family to Musselburgh at the age of seven.
She is the author of Nineteen Seventy-Nine: A Big Year in a Small Town, a book about growing up as a lesbian in the small fishing town of Musselburgh, East Lothian, Scotland, detailing about her teenage years and father's illness. Her debut novel The Naked Drinking Club was published by Ebury Press in 2007.
Cameron previously had relationships with comedian Sue Perkins (born 22 September 1969) and with writer Linda Gibson. It is sometimes stated that, while she was a contestant on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! Cameron outed Perkins as her past lesbian partner. However, while her statement increased the number of people aware of their sexuality, their relationship had not previously been hidden and they had appeared content to be photographed as a couple by the press some months earlier.
Cameron's partner is teacher and athlete, Suran Dickson.
