SERENA WILLIAMS SPARKLES IN A TIARA AS PROM QUEEN
Serena Williams has recovered from her Wimbledon knock-out by playing a prom queen instead. The Olympian traded in her regular court attire for a pink silk gown, tiara and long white gloves.With her world ranking likely to slip following Monday’s performance, the tennis ace could always switch to a career in comedy.
Serena takes centre stage in a new video to promote an upcoming sports awards show, by fluttering her eyelashes and serenading comedian Seth Meyers.
The 29-year-old stands in front of an audience to show off her vocal chords to prom chaperone Seth, a head writer for US show Saturday Night Live.
She also pretends to play the clarinet, as Seth calls out to her: ‘You’ll always be my queen!’
The footage is to promote this year’s Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Awards, which Seth will host.
Serena was knocked out of Wimbledon at the beginning of the week, on the same day as her sister Venus.
The girls suffered embarrassing fourth round defeats, signaling the first time they had both been knocked out of The Championships before the quarter-finals.
Serena was beaten by Frenchwoman Marion Bartoli following a straight sets loss of 6-3, 7-6 (8-6), while Venus lost to Bulgarian Tsvetana Pironkova with a score of 6-2, 6-3.
