18 || MOST FITNESS || FEBRUARY / MARCH 2016would love to do any of that actually. During the %u201896 Olympics, we recorded over one of my sister%u2019s birthing videos back when VCRs were there, and it was like you can do it Kerri, when she broke her ankle but then still landed the second vault and won the gold medal for the gymnastics! We recorded over my sister%u2019s birth, and it was the best thing ever!MFM: I saw in your interview with Rant Hollywood that you are one of three girls in your family and your dad encouraged you to play sports! I am the same with two older sisters! Did you ever feel that it was difficult to go from being a hardcore athlete to doing something like modeling and acting? Were your sisters as into sports too?HD: When I was playing college basketball or in high school basketball or anything, I was always the girl that wore lip gloss to the game and had fake nails and was always the girly girl on my team.

He%u2019s always been a really good guy and a great mentor and someone to look up to for sure. So it came about from speaking with him about how throughout my life I%u2019ve dated and everything, and it%u2019s getting to this point where I am 27, and I%u2019m like oh my god, I%u2019m supposed to be having babies before 30. And now, I%u2019m almost 30, and I don%u2019t have a boyfriend. Dave and I were having all these talks, and that%u2019s really where the idea came from. So what he is creating is a web series for girls, well women, who are growing up and not hitting the marks they were supposed to hit while growing up. So each episode will be what I
