Brooke told OK! exclusively at the 2011 Smile Event for Operation Smile in NYC, "At this point I’m sad to see anybody go. It’s such an even playing field this season, it’s really bizarre to not have a consistent frontrunner every week. It can be anybody’s game. It’s surprising and it’s very difficult. I hate Tuesdays."
Someone she really bonded with was reality star and former Girl Next Door Kendra.
"I connected to what she said when she was leaving about going home to her baby," Brooke said. "I know how hard that is; it’s just nice to see different sides of celebrities when they come on our show. A side that we never saw before."

Brooke told OK!, "She is really raw and honest and I appreciated her vulnerability and her fear. I know what it’s like to be in her shoes."
"I rooted for her because she is so frightened every week. I get it and I think she did great. I think she did exactly what she needed to do."
