- She and her brother, Scott, once filled out 3,000 contest entries and won a trip to Disney World. Another trip to Disney was paid for by collecting cans.
- Went on "an incredible six week cross country adventure" before officially moving to Los Angeles, California in 2007.
- Brooke's role in the Season 6 finale of Law & Order: Criminal Intent was written for her after several impressive callbacks for other episodes earlier in the season. The character was named Belle as a nod to her run in the Broadway production of Disney's Beauty & the Beast (as Belle, of course).
- Was offered the role of Shakespearean porn star Stacy in the indie comedy Slippery Slope on the same day that she was offered the role of Belle in Disney's Beauty and the Beast on Broadway. The schedules were conflicting, so she chose Belle.
- Brooke was the first actress from her hometown of Waterbury, Connecticut to star on Broadway since Rosalind Russell in 1953's "Wonderful Town".
- I have a problem with the fact that we can show on television be-headings of prisoners and footage of actual killings. I recently saw on television how Iraqi insurgents killed two Americans, dragged their bodies, burned them, and hung them up. They showed this on television. That's not what people get upset about. People get upset over any display of the human body. It is shocking to me what people find shocking. There's a big uproar over one second of seeing Janet Jackson's nipple, but it's okay to show horrible killings and graphic murders. I see my body everyday. I don't see dead bodies every day.
