Dancing With The Stars bombshell cohost Brooke Burke opened up about the importance of the event, telling RadarOnline.com, "Breast cancer is a really important cause, it's about educating women and spreading awareness."
Brooke also revealed she's rooting for Mike 'The Situation' Sorrentino and Karina Smirnoff on DWTS this season. "I really hope he makes a comeback.
