Mia Hamm Talks Kids in Sports and Making Exercise a Priority in Her Life

Rebecca M Gruber — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 11:14:45 PDT

The weather may be downright cold in some parts of the country, but Spring sports are in full swing, meaning bats are hitting, balls are flying, and there is plenty of opportunity for lil ones to get some fresh air and exercise while honing their skills. As a Hall of Fame soccer star and mother of twins, Mia Hamm knows a thing or two about kids and sports – especially flying objects that can injure young athletes. I spoke to her about getting kids involved in sports, the importance of mouth guards, and how the busy mama finds time to keep herself healthy and in shape. Check it out!

Stars Come Together to Earn Money and Give Away Kisses For a Good Cause in San Francisco

PopSugar — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 16:00:54 PDT

Charlize Theron looked beautiful on the red carpet last night at ONEXONE's annual fundraiser in San Francisco. The man of the night Matt Damon sadly had to miss it, as he headed back to Boston for a family emergency, but many other stars were happy to lend a hand to the good cause. We chatted with David Arquette about Coco, after he spent the day at the food bank for Feeding America, and Jeremy Piven who had nothing but great things to say about Matt. Inside the event, Charlize even sold a kiss for $140,000! Here's more:

Charlize Theron on bringing Matt Damon's organization and her charity together for the gala: "We reached out to ONEXONE seeing if they wanted to help us out. We have massive issues with fresh water sources in the area we work with in our schools. The next step for us was to build soccer fields. We have the World Cup next year so it just felt right, but there was something wrong about building soccer fields and knowing that a lot of these kids don't have access to running water. Somebody told me about what Matt does, his work with ONEXONE and I was blown away. So I reached out and he was like we would love to be involved."
Jeremy Piven on Matt's appearance on Entourage: "It was amazing. Matt really gets it. He made it so funny. He played just this really weird, twisted, evil version of himself. His heart was in the right place, but his methods of going about things were really really wrong. And in that way I think he's a comedic genius."

Josh Groban on his guest spot on Glee: "They asked me to make a cameo and I was like sure, but can you make me creepy or something. I'm tired of playing the vanilla guy. Make me a jerk or something, like Matt on Entourage. Give me something I can really sink my teeth into. It was really amazing. To see so many great theater actors on a hit TV show was really cool for me since my background is in theater. It's amazing to see people like Kristin Chenowith and Matthew Morrison on the show. Such a great group of talented people."
Jeremy Piven on being picking up the slack while Matt is away for the night: "I'm absolutely ready! Whatever it takes. That's what's fun about us all being in this together for ONEXONE. We have each others backs which is really, really great. When Matt appeared on Entourage it was basically a 40-minute infomercial for ONEXONE, and I was honored to even be a small part of this event tonight."

Learn From the Game: Mia Hamm

FitSugar — Fri, 15 Jun 2007 17:15:00 PDT

After a long week, I was searching for a little inspiration and I found this gem:

"Failure happens all the time. It happens every day in practice. What makes you better is how you react to it." - Mia Hamm

I think Mia Hamm is awesome, she is six months pregnant with twins in this photo and she still has time to kick it around with kids at a Soccer Clinic for Recovering Cancer Patients and Marrow Donor Drive. Go Mia...she delivered twin girls in March and I bet they are adorable.

Healthy To-Do: Volunteer For a Cause You Love

FitSugar — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 08:00:45 PDT

Doing community service is good for the world, but did you know it can also be good for your health? Giving your time to a worthy cause can increase your overall happiness.

Fittingly, I learned this while reading a story in Woman's Day entitled "What Doctors Wish You'd Do" - while waiting for a doctor's appointment. According to the article, volunteers who donated just 40 hours of their time per year lived longer than the average person. Plus, it gets you out and socializing with other people, which has been shown to help reduce the risk of depression and Alzheimer's.

Take a tip from Mia Hamm, shown here teaching kids about flu vaccines and soccer, and pick a cause that gets you moving. Plant a community garden, work at a local food bank, or coach a youth sports team. What healthy causes do you devote your time to?
