I don't get stage fright, I actually love the energy, I love the spontaneity, I love the adrenaline you get in front of a live audience, it actually really works for me.
Brooke BurkeComing from the modeling industry I have to exercise a lot, but I do enjoy it... I don't want to put my swimsuit on if I'm not fit.
Brooke BurkeMost of the time I believe in letting kids go ahead and make their own mistakes - maybe even get a little hurt - and learn from them.
Brooke BurkeI go to Saint Barth in the French West Indies for two weeks each year. That place is amazing. Amazing people, beautiful beaches, great wine, wonderful harbors... It's incredibly romantic.
Brooke BurkeI'm also crazy about Pilates Plus, which I do three times a week. The class is 55 minutes, head to toe. In that short amount of time, I've done everything I need to do. And for a working mom, what could be better?
Brooke BurkeI'm not a fan of chrome wheels. I sort of like brushed, brushed steel, more European style.
Brooke BurkeI think with motherhood and child-rearing in general, everyone's going to tell you how to do it and why. I've always said to other mothers and women when they've asked me, that you have to find your own way and find out what works for your family, at all costs.
Brooke BurkeThere's this whole assumption that girls like bad boys, but I have to disagree; I think 'nice' will go a long way.
Brooke BurkeLatin men are the most passionate men in the world - they may not be the most aggressive, but they are very passionate, very romantic.
Brooke BurkeI like feet. I definitely have a fetish. I love to see a man's bare foot, but it's got to be taken care of. If they're not well manicured, you've got to wonder what the rest of him is like. [laughs] I don't want to get in bed with somebody and feel his gnarly feet.
Brooke BurkeWhen I was young, I wanted to do something more low-key, like become a drummer in a rock band.
Brooke BurkeI always loved family holidays, and I had this vision and dream as a little girl of having a big family of my own.

Brooke BurkeI think it's such a blessing to be able to have a child, and good and bad, whatever you go through, it's so worth it, and it's such an unbelievable time - you have someone growing inside of you!
Brooke BurkeI want to stick in live television. And I'm hoping to continue on in a second season of Rock Star. Plus, I've got my 'Barely Brooke' swimsuit line with Venus USA and my new calendar is coming out.
Brooke BurkeWhat is age, anyway? I feel young because I'm beginning a new chapter in my life, which is so exciting!
Brooke BurkeForget all the bars and schmoozing and everybody checking out everybody else. My ideal date would be to park in a dark place, check out the stars, and have a great conversation. When all else fails, you can just make out.
Brooke BurkeWhen I was a new mom, I used to think that life was going to be balanced, and I strived for that. But life is crazy!
Brooke BurkeI don't want to say, 'This is where I'm going to be in five years and I'm going to get there no matter what.' I want to leave it open. I'm not a desperate actress dying to star in a B movie in a bikini.
Brooke BurkeI listen to everything from, you know, Buddha Bar groove music to international music, Italian music, like Eros. I like very sexy, funky music like Maxwell, Angie Stone, R&B...In my CD player, I've probably got Maxwell, Beyonce, Enrique Iglesias, and kid music...maybe some AC/DC. I mean a little bit of everything. It depends on what I'm doing.
Brooke BurkeIn the United States, viewers don't get to see a lot of things we can show in other countries. We didn't get to show our naked Twister game from Wild On Jamaica, but we definitely filmed it.
Brooke BurkeEA called my agency and made us an offer and I was really enthusiastic about this, really excited to do it. I had Need for Speed: Underground already, the first one. And I'm a bit of a gamer, and definitely car enthusiast, so I've done a lot of things to my cars that people can do in this game. Everything from after-market kits to styling them, exteriorly with wheels, rims, and kits. You name it I have some fun doin' that.
