Donning a yellow bikini for the famed Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover or starring alongside J-Lo and Cameron Diaz on the silver screen? Piece of cake. Sunday afternoon is when model and actress Brooklyn Decker says she will experience more than a few butterflies in her stomach. The 27-year-old Decker will take the stage at The Rock — aka Newark’s Prudential Center — where she will usher in the Special Olympics USA Games as one of the co-hosts, along with 76ers point guard Michael Carter-Williams. The Games begin Saturday and run through June 21 in the Garden State.

“It’s of course going to be a little nerve-wrecking, but it’s so moving, and such an inspirational room to be in,” Decker tells The Score. “Everyone is excited and supportive. So if you’re ever going to be nervous, that’s the place you want to be nervous.”

Decker says she has been involved with the organization — which provides year-round sports training and competition to kids and adults with intellectual disabilities — for about six years, and was inspired to do so in large part because of her aunt, a Special Olympics athlete in tennis and basketball.

“It’s a cause that I’ve seen the effects of in my own family, in my own community. When I started in this crazy business that I now work in, I wanted to think of things that I could get involved with and bring a voice to,” she says. “I approached them, ‘Can I get involved? What can I do? Can I be an ambassador?’ It started as something that was small and close to me, and grew from there.”

Brooklyn plans to watch as many of the events as possible, although she will be pulling extra hard for the athletes from North Carolina, her home state.

“I’ll hopefully visit with the North Carolina team. I’ll take the whole (Games) in, show my support. I think that’s what it’s all about. There are 70,000 spectators this year, so I am going to be one, cheering everybody on.”
