Playboy May 2001

COVER STORY
As the star of E's Wild On, the gorgeous Brooke Burke risks it all in jet-setting adventures. She was a memorable fitness buff in Bally Total Fitness ads and a model for Frederick's of Hollywood. For PLAYBOY, Brooke traveled to Bali—and left her suitcase of clothes at home. This month's cover was shot by Davis Factor. Our naughty Rabbit just loves panty raids.
