Del.icio.usBrooke Burns
After relocating to Los Angeles to pursue a television acting career full time, Burns' first audition was for the popular beachside syndication series Baywatch. Although not hired initially for that drama, she made numerous television guest-starring roles on other series, including Timothy Hutton's Nero Wolfe and the recurring role of Jennifer, the fantasy girl on Ally McBeal. Eventually, the Baywatch producers cast her as Jessica Jessie Owens, a role which she reprised on the series' spinoff Baywatch Hawaii." Burns made her comedic and feature-film debut in last year's Shallow Hal (alongside Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow and Jack Black) as a young, tragically ugly girl whose inner beauty proves to be much stronger than her disagreeable outer appearance.
Currently, Burns resides in the Los Angeles suburbs and still enjoys dancing on a regular basis. Burns is an avid swimmer, loves the outdoors and writing (songs, poetry). She is also active in the Camp Baywatch and Planet Hope charities.
