Brooke White is a 24 year old woman who currently resides in Van Nuys, California. She is a somewhat of a throw back singer, invoking the likes of Joni Mitchell and Carole King. Brooke White gave her initial audition in San Diego, but it was her showing in Hollywood week that was the most impressive, as she got to show off her talents on the piano. Brooke has never seen an R-rated movie.
Brooke says that she draws inspiration from the simple things in life. In fact, she says that one of her happiest moments was when her mother made her eggs benedict for her birthday. She also admits to having some difficult obstacles in life, saying that one of the toughest was "Overcoming my own internal battles with confidence, always working on it."
Brooke believes that being one's self, no matter how clich? it may sound, will take her further into the competition. In fact, she says that the fact that she's "not very edgy" may be her edge in the competition. Aside from singing, she is also very creative in other aspects. She says, "I'm heavily right-brained, anything "artsy fartsy", drawing, decorating, music, doing hair... beautifying."
The arts may be very important to the 24-year-old singer, but Brooke says that she aspires to become a mother sometime in the near future. In fact, one of her future plans includes raising a happy family.
