DAVE NAVARRO

With his six-string skills best described as a merger between heavy metal, psychedelic and modern rock, Dave Navarro became one of alternative's first true guitar heroes (with such notorious bands as Jane's Addiction and The Red Hot Chili Peppers).

Born in California, Navarro became mesmerized by the guitar as a teenager, due to his discovery of the incomparable Jimi Hendrix. This led to an appreciation of a wide variety of musical styles. When he first met singer Perry Farrell, he was in a speed metal band (along with drummer Stephen Perkins). Navarro, Perkins, Farrell, and bassist Eric Avery formed Jane's Addiction in the mid 1980s-- alternative rock has never been the same.

Navarro's style was virtually unheard of in the 1980s. His technique on such landmark Jane's Addiction albums as 1988's "Nothing's Shocking" and 1990's "Ritual De Lo Habitual" was a breath of fresh air to the music industry and fans alike. He was one of the first rock guitarists to not confine his style--something that had become commonplace in the 1990s. Navarro knew when to shred away, and when to lay low and add textures to the compositions. Unfortunately, the band split up in 1991 Navarro and Avery resurfaced with the experimental band Deconstruction, who issued a self-titled debut in 1994, but broke up soon afterwards.

Navarro then did session work with Nine Inch Nails' "Further Down the Spiral," Alanis Morissette's mega-seller "Jagged Little Pill," Porno For Pyros' "Good God's Urge," and others.

In 1994, Navarro joined The Red Hot Chili Peppers--his live debut with them being Woodstock. Their studio debut, 1995's "One Hot Minute," was a hit, but proved to be lackluster. After a lengthy worldwide tour of arenas, Navarro re-joined Jane's Addiction for a brief U.S. tour in 1997, recording a few new tracks with the band (issued on the compilation Kettle Whistle).

Navarro left The Red Hot Chili Peppers soon after the Jane's Addiction reunion tour wrapped up. He immediately threw himself into his next musical project, entitled "Spread," and started work on a biographical account of a year in his life. "Trust No One" marked his solo debut in summer 2001.

In 2002, Jane's Addiction reformed and started work on a new album. The band entered the studio with veteran rock producer, Bob Ezrin, and toured with Lollapalooza, 2003, in support of the album. At the same time that Jane's Addiction was in the studio, Navarro was also working with Camp Freddy. Camp Freddy is a large rock jam comprised of rock musicians (Matt Sorum, Donovan Leitch, Billy Morrison, and Dave Navarro, and recent addition Chris Chaney). They played select shows throughout 2003-2004, with the likes of Ron Wood, Steven Tyler, and many other talented musicians.

Shortly after Lollapalooza ended, Navarro and his fiancée, actress Carmen Electra, agreed to have their wedding preparations filmed for MTV's, "Til Death Do Us Part." In addition, Navarro's book, "Don't Try This At Home," was released on October 5, 2004.

Navarro is working on a new band, The Panic Channel, with Stephen Perkins, Chris Chaney, and new singer, Steve Isaacs. The Panic Channel is currently recording an album for Capitol Records.

Navarro's birth date is June 7, 1967.

BROOKE BURKE

Brooke Burke is recognized worldwide as the hottest tour guide and adrenaline junkie on E!'s popular travel series, "Wild On," seen in 120 countries and in more than 400 million homes. She has graced numerous magazine covers, has top-selling swimsuit calendars and is regularly ranked in men's magazines as one of the sexiest women in the world today.

Brooke stars in EA Games' hot video game "Need for Speed: Underground 2" where she plays 'Rachel Teller,' a street-wise adrenaline junkie who runs an elite, underground street racing circuit. For her performance, she received a Spike TV Video Game Award for Best Performance by a Human-Female. She also lends her voice to Atari's Trivial Pursuit Unhinged video game as the celebrity host of its "People and Places" category.

On the acting front, Brooke appears in the upcoming independent features "The Hazing" and "Knuckle Sandwich." In addition, she has guest-starred on the television series "Less Than Perfect," "Eve," "It's All Relative," "The Bernie Mac Show," "Monk," "Rock Me Baby" and "That's Life." She made her stage debut performing a celebrity guest "CenterPIECE" monologue for the Los Angeles premiere of the hit off-Broadway play, "Pieces (Of Ass)." She also currently appears in a new Burger King commercial, directed by David Lachapelle.

During her three-year stint as host of "Wild On," Brooke redefined the term exotic location. She has guided tours from the Australian Outback to the Mayan Riviera, and from the endangered Bamboo forests of Bali to the hyperthyroid nightlife of the world's most exotic party capitals. From grasping the fin of a wild shark in Belize to flying a Russian MIG 17 at negative g's, this is the wild child who has done it all. Born with a thirst to explore, Brooke experienced each country as a culture, not as a tourist destination.

From her extensive travels and ten years of swimwear advertising experience, Brooke has spanned the globe in search of hip, sexy styles for swimwear. Now, her travels have inspired a collection of internationally flavored beachwear called "Barely Brooke." The successful line has appeared in Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit issue and Victoria's Secret ever-popular catalogue. "Barely Brooke" can currently be found in the Venus USA swimwear catalogue or online.

Raised in Tucson, Arizona, Brooke developed an affinity for the desert as a child and never envisioned herself as a Hollywood personality or television star. "When I was young, I wanted to do something innocuous, like become a drummer in a rock and roll band," says Brooke, whose French, Irish and Portuguese descent make up her stunningly exotic visage.

In her spare time, Brooke enjoys doing yoga, pilates, the "Core Secrets" ball workout, taking long walks along mountain trails or secluded beaches, preparing gourmet holiday meals for her family and friends, and catching movies and plays.

We can be certain that whatever undertaking is in the future for this remarkable woman, it will be awe-inspiring. "I never intended to make the cross-over from modeling to hosting to acting, but when an incredible opportunity comes along, I'm all for it," she concludes. And the sky's the limit for this gorgeous and talented ingénue for whom film, television and entertainment portals continue to open.
