In a move that highlights changing attitudes toward gays, AARP, an advocacy group for those 50 and older, has signed gay tennis legend Martina Navratilova as its health and fitness ambassador. Navratilova will encourage AARP's 39 million members to stay active.

Starting in January, AARPfitness.com will offer health tips and exercise routines that Navratilova will help formulate. An AARP release also stated that the tennis star will be participating in various AARP events throughout the coming year.

"I think we have a tendency to look for quick fixes and easy solutions to leading healthy, active lifestyles, and my goal is to let my generation know that though staying fit takes work, it's just as important now -- if not more -- than ever before," the 51-year-old Navratilova said in a statement.
