The Challenge Australia: Will Brooke Blurton’s Self-Care Routine Be the Key to Her Success?

Originally a spin-off from historic, game-changing reality shows The Real World and Road Rules, The Challenge has grown into one of the most popular and long-running competition shows of all time. Thanks to it’s ever-changing format and variety of players with influential followings, the show has earned a rabid fan base that follows the game’s inevitable twists and turns.

And now, in 2022, we have The Challenge Australia, hosted by the charismatic sports commentator Brihony Dawson.

The Challenge Australia will see 22 of Australia’s biggest names across the entertainment, sports and reality worlds, descend on Buenos Aires, Argentina, and into the most unpredictable and demanding game of their lives.

Challengers will be randomly be paired to clash head-to-head in extreme physical contests, test strategies, survive eliminations and cut-throat alliances, to win challenges and eliminate their opponents. And if that wasn’t enough, they’ll also have steamy hook-ups, messy exes and fractured friendships to navigate. We’re living for the inevitable drama!

With a whopping $200,000 cash prize and a ticket entry into the first ever The Challenge: Global Championship, only one female and one male competitor will have the perfect combination of physical, mental, and social skills to reign supreme.

One of the challengers on The Challenge Australia 2022, is trailblazer and Australia’s first ever bisexual and Indigenous Bachelorette, Brooke Blurton.

As a proud Noongar-Yamatji woman born in WA, Brooke has worked as a youth and social worker, and most recently has launched a podcast and published her memoir, Big Love. She’s also an incredibly vulnerable influencer in the Australian mediascape, opening up about things like loss and grief on social media. She doesn’t shy away from tough conversations, getting angry when necessary and making her opinions —  especially when it comes to violence against First Nations people in Australia.

Brooke is sure to be a strong Challenger on The Challenge Australia.

‘You can do no wrong if you’re just yourself,” she says in a press statement. “Though I must admit, I don’t think people have seen a very
competitive side to me just yet, and won’t know how much I thrive in competition.”

The Challenge Australia airs at 7.30pm on Network Ten on Mondays and Tuesdays. Catch up on 10 Play.

She’s prepped as best she can, doing lots of acupuncture, physio and hitting the pools, Brooke says it’s hard to prepare for something you “have no idea about”.

She’s also pretty sure that her fellow Challengers are going to be concerned at the amount of skincare she brought.

“But hey, investing in good skincare is investing in yourself. It’s my favourite self-care strategy.”

Will Brooke’s glowing skin get her that prize money?
