Jaclyn Stapp Talks Beauty and Philanthropy
Many recognize Jaclyn Stapp as the gorgeous wife of Grammy winner Scott Stapp from the rock band Creed, but Mrs. Stapp has proven that she is much more than a rock star’s wife and a pretty face; she’s also an amazing soul who is here to conquer the world one act of philanthropy at a time!
Jaclyn Stapp’s experience as a beauty queen and model has certainly led her on a path to permanent fitness. Unlike many moms, Stapp has rarely struggled with her weight mostly because her job and lifestyle never allowed her to. Still, with three active children, a rock star husband and her own professional agenda, Stapp’s fitness regimen isn’t without its challenges. “Maintaining my health has always been a priority of mine,” she says. “Sometimes squeezing in a workout can be a bit challenging but I stay very busy.” Stapp says that when she cannot find time to squeeze in yoga or Extend Barre Classes (her favorites), she incorporates family activities such as basketball, going to the beach and riding bikes into her day.When she does need to prep for an important event, pageant or photo shoot, she strictly focuses on her diet and workout, and even enlists her family to help her stay motivated. “The whole family cheers me on,” she says. “They even join in on similar diet regimens with me.” Such regimens include a diet that is high protein, low carb, low sodium and incorporates tons of water. Stapp says her go-to staples are egg whites, oatmeal, grapefruit, chicken, fish and steamed veggies. While she always makes efforts to keep her diet clean, she does admit to occasional slip ups and cheat meals. “I love pizza and cheeseburgers,” she says. “As a busy mom of three and with a traveling husband, I may go off the path sometimes but I remind myself and my family that we can do anything in moderation.” Stapp’s workouts, when she can get them in, revolve around yoga or Barre classes and spinning classes. She says that cardio is key for anyone looking to get and stay lean, and recommends working in 5-6 hours of cardio a week when preparing for a special event.

Excerpt from: Multi-Cultural Author Celebrates Diversity
“For every young girl who feels like an ugly
duckling and wishes she could become a swan,
there’s a delightful children’s book that
addresses the issue of difference with sensitivity,
humor and wisdom. Wacky Jacky: The True
Story of an Unlikely Beauty Queen is an
autobiographical tale based on author Jaclyn
Stapp’s experiences growing up.
Jaclyn to visit schools, meet and greet with Japanese children devastated by the tsunami and families of U.S. Military Troops, with a reading of her award-winning children’s book, Wacky Jacky –The Story Of An Unlikely Beauty Queen in support of ‘victims of bullying’ worldwide
Jaclyn Stapp, accomplished philanthropist, spokesperson, model and children’s book author, is taking her message of hope and determination to the children of tsunami-stricken areas of Japan’s northeastern coast, such as Sendai and Ishinomaki. She is also meeting the children on U.S. military bases in Japan to support continued recovery and revitalization along with her husband, Grammy Award winner Scott Stapp, singer, songwriter and voice of Creed.
In an effort to raise morale and build hope for children affected by the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami, the Stapps will spend their time with both Japanese tsunami victims and U.S. troops. Jaclyn is donating books and reading her story, Wacky Jacky: The Story of an Unlikely Beauty Queen to Japanese children affected by the tsunami and now live in temporary housing facilities. Her story emphasizes and teaches lessons in self-esteem, positive attitudes, and hope. Husband Scott Stapp will perform an acoustic show on board the USS George Washington at Yokosuka Naval Base for several thousand troops stationed in Japan. He will take part in a music program for tsunami victims, along with a meet and greet and Q&A.
“It is an honor to have the chance to visit Japan and help continue to raise awareness for the disaster relief.” says Stapp “Our goal is to bring positive light to the inspiring children affected by the tsunami who have continued to persevere over the last year, despite losing everything. We could not be more proud of U.S. Military troops and their families based in Japan for their sacrifices for our country. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to meet and read to them and look forward to sharing a message of encouragement with both the Japanese children and the U.S. Military families stationed there.”
As a family effort, the Stapps invitation to Japan will help demonstrate how American families are dedicated to helping children and families who suffer in any way around the world. For more information or find out how to help, visit http://usjapantomodachi.org/.
