When I was young, I wanted to do something innocuous, like become a drummer in a rock and roll band

About Me

I was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona. My exotic, original looks can be attributed to my family's heritage, which blends with French/Irish father with my Portuguese/Irish mother.I am a middle child of 7 siblings (with 3 older sisters and 3 younger brothers), I wanted to pursue an atypical career -- but never dreamt of becoming an entertainment media figure.The aspiring rock band drummer got my start in entertainment after I was noticed for my stunning good looks. I was accompanying a friend to a modeling agency, when I was the one who was immediately noticed by a talent scout.I am also a former beauty pageant winner and I decided to pursue a modeling career. My beauty pageant experience led me to become a print model by the age of 18, in everything from magazine covers and billboards to swimsuit calendars.I garnered an acting scholarship and headed to Los Angeles where I would spend most of my time as a broadcast journalism student at UCLA But my studies were not my full-time job, as I also spent my free time behind the camera as a model...Becoming a high-profile model would not be difficult after having signed with modeling agencies such as Ford, Wilhelmina and Cunningham-Escott-Dipene. I was then ready to add up to a dozen magazine covers to my resumé, not to mention several television commercials, namely, the Bally Total Fitness commercials (as the "beautiful body"), Discover Card commercials (as Derek Jeter's dream date), and commercials for Coca-Cola, Anheuser-Busch and M Professional Cosmetics.When E! was searching for a replacement for its show Wild On, a swimwear company that I worked for recommended me to the entertainment network. After the encouragement of a friend of mine I decided to go for a casual meeting and interview with E!, which led to a trial show in Spain.E! was looking for a spontaneous, personable and down-to-earth person, and since I fit the bill perfectly, I was signed to a three-year contract with the network as host of the travel show, Wild On.Taking modeling to new heights, I then appeard on the cover of Play.boy's May 2001 issue. (sorry cannot show pictures of that here)While at my Los Angeles home, I stay fit by practicing yoga, kickboxing, scuba diving, taking long walks, and relaxes by cooking and reading.me on the late night show:I have had some requests to see everyday Brooke and here I am:my profile custom text»-(¯`v´¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯`v´¯)-«

My Interests

From traveling around the world as a model to seeing the world as the host of Wild On, I recognize how important family is and my charitable nature is what drives me to volunteer for non-profit organizations such as Athletes & Entertainers for Kids and the Entertainment Industry Foundation.
