Brooke Hogan



Both Brooke and her brother Nick the dork were home-schooled. While in high school, she took dance classes, voice lessons, gymnastics, and cheerleading. She joined the squad of her St. Petersburg school, Admiral Farragut Academy, in her freshman year. Brooke graduated from high school at the age of sixteen.

When Brooke Hogan was thirteen, her parents arranged for her to meet with record executive Lou Pearlman. Pearlman, who had worked with such artists as Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys and 'N Sync, was impressed by the thirteen-year-old singer, but thought she could use a few years to mature and improve. In early 2002, she returned to Lou Pearlman, and proceeded to sing for him again and perform a piano medley. Pearlman was impressed, and Hogan was immediately signed as a Trans Continental Records artist. At one time she was handled by the management services of Larry Rudolph, well-known for representing famous clients like Britney Spears and Nick Lachey. Her first song in the United States singles charts was "Everything to Me". Hogan was the first artist signed to Scott Storch's record label, initially called Storchaveli Records but later named Storch Music Company. Hogan's video premiered on the season two finale of Hogan Knows Best.
