Born on Sep 8, 1971 in Hartford, Connecticut, USA . Reportedly 5' 7".

Say what you will about the E! channel, but it's come a long way since its early days when it had about two hours of cheesy fluff that it simply repeated over and over throughout the day. Now it has tons of cheesy fluff, the most popular after The Howard Stern Show being the obnoxious Wild On series hosted by bosomy swimsuit and lingerie model Brooke Burke. Which says a lot for Brooke, since one Wild On is pretty much like another, leaving Brooke the only real reason to watch the show. However, there are only two reasons to watch Brooke, and her face, while certainly attractive enough, isn't one of them, which makes one wonder if this French-Irish-Portuguese journalism-student-turned-model from Arizona won't be as forgotten as post-E! Cindy Margolis or Greg Kinnear once her contract is up and she decides to move on to bigger things.

NOTE
By the way, I myself doubt that Brooke was born in 1971 — I got her date of birth from IMDB.com, an often iffy source at best. Caveat emptor.

Add Brooke Burke’s — and pray that the boost to her celebrity stock will help put her in movies on the one hand but not prompt her to leave her base at E! like Margolis and Kinnear on the other....
