Brooke Burke is a glamorous beauty who originally gained fame as a lingerie model for Frederick's of Hollywood but has since branched out into television work and became a regular as a travel guide on E! Entertainment Television's popular Wild On! program.

She is a fabulous mixture of exotic Latin and mysterious Celtic ancestry and she has featured in ravingly popular spreads for Lads Mags such as Stuff and FHM, as well as in a couple of nude spreads for Playboy.

She is the mother of three young daughters, and this has led to Brooke launching BabooshBaby.com in 2007, an online store which features specialty items for moms-to-be. So she's a beauty with brains and business acumen as well. Ahhh! I think I'm in love!!

 Brooke Lisa Burke was born in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1971 but later moved to Arizona and was brought up by her stepfather. After romping home with first prize in a beauty contest when she was just 14 years old, she got noticed by talent scouts and made her movie debut just one year later as a waitress on rollerskates in a movie called 'The Wraith'.

Brooke was firmly on her way and she was offered and signed a contract with the talent agency Ford Models which led to appearances on TV in major advertising campaigns for large companies like Coca-Cola and Anheuser-Busch. Brooke is one smart cookie and didn't put all her eggs in one basket. She made sure she continued and broadened her education by studying  at  UCLA to help further her career. Her subjects, by the way, were business advertising and broadcast journalism.

As well as her TV work Brooke signed a contract to model bikinis and lingerie for several large organisations including Frederick's of Hollywood. She then was launched into the big time when she became the host and travel guide of Wild On!, a TV show which gave her the opportunity to travel all over the world. It was a dream job which raised her profile and made her nationally famous.

 In 2002 Brooke left Wild On! in order to concentrate on her budding acting career. She appeared in a number of TV shows including Rock Me, Baby in 2003 and Monk the following year and she has also made numerous movie appearances such as The Hazing, Dodgeball and Knuckle Sandwich, all in 2004.

Brooke has the entrepreneur's eye for an oopportunity and she introduced Barely Brooke, a swimwear line, and also her own calendar series with her 2005 calendar. When you add to this her online maternity wear store BabooshBaby.com which she launched in 2007 its plain to see that the future is very promising indeed for the multi-talented, very beautiful Brooke Burke.
