Serena Williams Sets Open Standard For Dating Life

Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: | Updated on June 28, 2018 CommentsComments (0)

Serena Williams hasn’t been on a date in “forever”. The 13-grand slam Tennis champion showed off her look for the upcoming Australian Open and shared her thoughts on design and her fading love life.

Serene chose a blue Nike get-up that is reminiscent of her infamous black leather ensemble, sans the leather, and still enough lycra for attention to be drawn to her envious physique.

“This one is super short-short, which is always super hot … this one really enhances the top part of the body,” she said. “Everything I do is style.”

Though the tennis star is not shy about showing her legs, mid-section, and bust off while competing on the court, her smile is surprisingly her favorite body part which she credits (in-part) to her tight six pack.

“I laugh a lot. I think it has a lot to do with those muscles,” she said.

While most men may disagree and may tune in to watch the Melbourne Open to view everything but her smile, the sister of the equally talented Venus Williams, says she hasn’t been on a date in a while.

“I haven’t been on a date in forever,” Williams said. “I can be super picky, never satisfied.”

Ironically, POPULARCRITIC received word earlier this week that a current Hip Hop beef between her ex-rapper beau Common and rapper Drake may have been because of the multi-talented tennis player.

Besides being picky, the five- time Australian Open winner is juggling act between her tennis career, designing, and business ventures which could play a role in her stagnant love life. Serena, 30, alluded her pickiness may have been an issue with previous relationships and has jokingly shelved criteria altogether.

“Anywhere between 18 and 80, blonde, purple or green…blind, cripple, or crazy.”

For now, the competitive star is focusing on her 14th Grand Slam win. Serena recently recovered from an ankle injury and had to whip back into shape for the tournament and to fit in her chosen blue number.

Besides competing for the win, Serena will be competing with Ana Ivanovic, and Caroline Wozniacki who will be trying out their own lycra versions of balloon mini-skirts look for Adidas.

We like Serena’s look for the Australian Open. We’re rooting for you!

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

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.
