Brooke Burke
Brooke Burke is recognized worldwide as the hottest tour guide
and adrenaline junkie on E!'s popular travel series, "Wild On," seen in 120 countries and in
more than 400 million homes. She has graced numerous magazine
covers, has top-selling swimsuit calendars and is regularly ranked
in men's magazines as one of the sexiest women in the world today.
Brooke stars in EA Games' hot video game "Need for Speed:
Underground 2" where she plays 'Rachel Teller,' a street-wise
adrenaline junkie who runs an elite, underground street racing
circuit. For her performance, she received a Spike TV Video Game
Award for Best Performance by a Human-Female. She also lends her
voice to Atari's Trivial Pursuit Unhinged video game as the
celebrity host of its "People and Places" category.
On the acting front, Brooke appears in the upcoming independent
features "The Hazing" and "Knuckle Sandwich." In addition, she has
guest-starred on the television series "Less Than Perfect," "Eve,"
"It's All Relative," "The Bernie Mac Show," "Monk," "Rock Me Baby"
and "That's Life." She made her stage debut performing a celebrity
guest "CenterPIECE" monologue for the Los Angeles premiere of the
hit off-Broadway play, "Pieces (Of Ass)." She also currently appears
in a new Burger King commercial, directed by David Lachapelle.
During her three-year stint as host of "Wild On," Brooke
redefined the term exotic location. She has guided tours from the
Australian Outback to the Mayan Riviera, and from the endangered
Bamboo forests of Bali to the hyperthyroid nightlife of the world's
most exotic party capitals. From grasping the fin of a wild shark in
Belize to flying a Russian MIG 17 at negative g's, this is the wild
child who has done it all. Born with a thirst to explore, Brooke
experienced each country as a culture, not as a tourist destination.
From her extensive travels and ten years of swimwear advertising
experience, Brooke has spanned the globe in search of hip, sexy
styles for swimwear. Now, her travels have inspired a collection of
internationally flavored beachwear called "Barely Brooke." The
successful line has appeared in Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit issue
and Victoria's Secret ever-popular catalogue. "Barely Brooke" can
currently be found in the Venus USA swimwear catalogue or online at
www.Venususa.com.
Raised in Tucson, Arizona, Brooke developed an affinity for the
desert as a child and never envisioned herself as a Hollywood
personality or television star. "When I was young, I wanted to do
something innocuous, like become a drummer in a rock and roll band,"
says Brooke, whose French, Irish and Portuguese descent make up her
stunningly exotic visage.
In her spare time, Brooke enjoys doing yoga, pilates, the "Core
Secrets" ball workout, taking long walks along mountain trails or
secluded beaches, preparing gourmet holiday meals for her family and
friends, and catching movies and plays.
We can be certain that whatever undertaking is in the future for
this remarkable woman, it will be awe-inspiring. "I never intended
to make the cross-over from modeling to hosting to acting, but when
an incredible opportunity comes along, I'm all for it," she
concludes. And the sky's the limit for this gorgeous and talented
ingénue for whom film, television and entertainment portals continue
to open.
