Update – Serena Williams and Jessica Olsson were stunners at the 2011 ESPY awards.   Serena Williams, top tennis champion and entrepreneur – check. But who is Jessica Olsson? Jessica is the girlfriend of the NBA Finals MVP, Dirk Nowitzki, but more importantly the only non-sports figure that managed to grab ALL the attention without ever playing a sport. Jessica quickly became a hot topic on Twitter for several reasons including shock and praise that she was on the arm of Dirk Nowitzki. Of course the Lebron jokes weren’t too far behind either. Especially since Dirk won both the “Best Male Athlete” and “Best NBA Player” awards. The ESPY apparently also loves Serena Williams who was out of the game for an entire year and just made her comeback less than two months ago won as the   award for the “Best Tennis Player”. Enjoy pictures of Jessica Olsson, Serena Willliams, Maria Sharapova and others at the ESPY Awards 2011. Who wins the award for best look at the ESPY Awards Serena Williams or Jessica Olsson?

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
