That's right, mother****ers! Samuel L. Jackson has had ENOUGH of men not speaking out about health issues, so he's going to change it!

Specifically, he's the new face of the One For The Boys drive, which urges men to visit their doctor on a more regular basis — leading to earlier cancer diagnosis rates! Sam has always been about charity, and now he's knee-deep!

| Filed under: ZportzInspirationTony Hawk

Tony Hawk is arguably the most famous skateboarder to have ever lived — his name is known in households that couldn't even tell you what a skateboard is! LOLz!

Now, he's being honored for being such a badass in the sport!

The deck that started it all, Tony's first ever skateboard, is finding a home in the Smithsonian! You can see a photo of it (above), because Tony just posted it!

Honestly — and we're gonna sound like Indian Jones here — we think that thing BELONGS in a museum! We're sure it's worth a fortune right now, and we're happy Tony went this route instead of just trying to make a quick buck!

The funny thing is, this will be the second Tony Hawk board in the museum! He donated one of his faves that he rode in 1987 a few years ago!

Congrats, Tony!

This just makes our hearts feel all warm and toasty inside!

Sebastien De La Cruz is an 11-year-old phenom who proved he has maturity well past his years!

After appearing on season 7 of America’s Got Talent, the singer was asked to sing the National Anthem at Game 3 of the NBA Finals in San Antonio.

De La Cruz is a proud mariachi singer and wore his usual uniform for his performance. This made people on Twitter go crazy, hurling racial remarks at the child and using the hashtag #GoHome.

But he handled it like a pro, and bravely RETURNED to sing the Anthem for Game 4!

What night couldn't be a success when you get to hang with Carnie & Wendy Wilson???

A Night for Jolie was a night unlike any other, and we are SO HAPPY we got to be a part of it! Sponsored by Lupus LA & Sweet Relief Musicians Fund, the evening was filled with music and good spirits — and all for a great cause!

Jolie has been a music coordinator for over 30 years, and in 2008 Jolie was diagnosed with Lupus. She needs our help just like any other person with the devastating diagnosis! With no cure and 5 million people affected throughout the world, it's time to find a way to end this problem!

A portion of all the proceeds from the event are donated to Sweet Relief Musicians Fund, too!

We're so glad to have been there! Such a wonderful and uplifting night!!

| Filed under: Baby BlabberInspirationBeachScary!

Sometimes regular people will step up and become heroes, and there's nothing in this world that we love more than when that happens!

In this instant, a father and his son leapt into action while Skimboarding off Aliso Park in Laguna Beach. They saved a baby girl from drowning after a wave sucked her out of her mother's arms!

After jumping in, the father initially thought what he was feeling was a diaper — but it turned out to be the entire baby!

Interestingly enough, he didn't even have time to catch the mother's or the baby's name!

Ch-ch-check out the amazeballz pics of the rescue and hear the story from the rescuer himself (above)!!
