My children keep me real and keep me honest.

I 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.

When 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!

I don't idolize anyone or aspire to be like anyone.

I really believe in the environmental movement right now - it only takes a little effort to make a big difference.

I 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!

I 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.
