“When my wife and I were first dating, she did Saturday Night Liveand there was an after-party,” Hart, 49, reveals in his 25 Things You Didn’t Know About Me article exclusively in the latest edition of Us Weeklyon newsstands now. “I met Drew Barrymoremy childhood crush, and we chatted for a while. My wife swears I was flirting with her, but I don’t remember that! Around the same time, my wife and I made cameos in Charlie’s Angels.”
Pink, 45, appeared on the January 12, 2002, episode of the sketch comedy show for the first time, and during that Josh Hartnett made her debut as host and Pink performed “Get The Party Started” and “Don’t Let Me Get Me.” Hart and the singer had met the previous summer at the X Games and began dating soon after.
A year after the SNL episode – and the couple’s run with Barrymore, 49 – featured Pink and Hart Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle alongside the actress.
While his day job is racing, Hart returns to the screen again this month on season 3 of FOX’s Special Powers: The World’s Toughest Testwhich premieres on Wednesday, January 8, at 8 pm ET.
“It was definitely the mental side,” Hart said Us the toughest part of the show, which replicates US Special Forces military training. “Giving up all your freedom and decisions, becoming a number, not knowing when it was safe to shower, change your kit or know when the day was over (was difficult).”
For more personal stories from Hart – including the proudest moment of his career – keep scrolling:
1. My No. 1 artist on my Spotify Wrapped 2024 was Pennywise, a SoCal punk rock band.
2. Besides my wife, (Pink), Tony Hawk (a) Jon Bernthal are the most famous people in my phone book.
3. I’m not big on New Year’s resolutions, but I’d like to manage stress better. My life is chaotic with balancing family life and two careers. I try to let the little stuff go!
4. I built Pink a custom Indian motorcycle, and there’s no better way to enjoy each other’s company than on two wheels.
5. I started riding at the age of 4. My family didn’t like traditional sports other than baseball. That’s what we did as a family, living in Vegas in the late 70’s and 80’s. It became serious at the age of 12, pretty much a job then. I raced about 45 weekends a year on average along the south and west coasts. The day after I graduated high school, I packed up my van, moved to California and turned pro four weeks later.

7. My secret talent is that I am full of useless information.
8. My favorite books are Anthony Kiedis‘ Scar Tissue a Matthew McConaughey‘s Green light.
9. One of my coolest celebrity moments was in the early 2000s, when Brad Pitt and showed his son to my race’s shop and office. My good friend was building a custom motorcycle for Brad, and we all hung out in the shop with my mechanic.
10. When my wife and I were first dating, she did it Saturday Night Liveand there was a party afterwards. I met Drew Barrymore, my childhood crush, and we chatted for a while. My wife swears I was flirting with her, but I don’t remember that! Around the same time, my wife and I made cameos in Charlie’s Angels.

12. At the end of my racing career in 1998, I enrolled in a community college and was going to be an accountant. Then, I was asked to do the first freestyle motocross demo on Warped Tour and FMX blew up that summer, (so) I stopped pursuing FMX.
13. The proudest moment of my career is being a professional motocross rider—a very old one at that—and a custom motorcycle builder. The fact that I’m still getting paid to ride a motorcycle 31 years after turning pro still blows my mind.
14. My most prized possession is the original bike I rode when I did my first backflip in 2000 at the Gravity Games. I rode the same bike the next year when I had a horrible accident going for my second flip at the X Games. After I recovered from the accident, I replaced the broken parts, and retired the bike. It sat on the mantle in my living room for a few years. Now, it hangs upside down from the roof beams in my shop where I build Indian motorcycles.
15. The movies I could watch for the rest of my life are The Breakfast Club, Rocketeer a Pop star.
16. The three items I cannot leave the house without are my wallet, pocket knife and hoodie.
17. The song Gyneb yn Gyneb “Disconnected” reminds me of traveling the country in my van, chasing the supercross and motocross series from 1995 to 1998. I slept in my van four to five nights a week and couch surfing around the country for 30 weeks. I didn’t have two quarters to rub together, but it was a pretty amazing time.
18. I was very good at maths at school, but I am dyslexic and have trouble reading early on. I still have trouble reading out loud.
19. My first job was taping and finishing drywall at the age of 12 for my pop friends in the construction industry. He wanted to get the point across to me that I needed to make money on my motorbike or with my brain. He owned an asphalt paving company – arguably one of the most brutal jobs and environments in Vegas. I always said I would steal bands before I went to work for him.
20. My ideal vacation is staying at home — without anyone knowing I’m there — riding my motocross track, shooting skeet and barbecuing with the family.

22. The one item left on my bucket list is to support my son in kart racing. My best memories as a child were in the races and I look forward to having similar (some) with my son. He is addicted to driving.
23. The app I use the most is Pandora. I’m a tech dinosaur, so I have my 90s punk, Led Zeppelin and hip hop BBQ playlists in the background while I build bikes.
24. I have a pretty solid endurance rating, and I like to hurt myself with exercise sessions through cycling or trail walking of all kinds.
25. The childhood memory that makes me smile is going to Lake Mead or Lake Havasu any weekend I wasn’t racing. I was a river rat and loved being on the water.
