In a recent interview with Time, Serena Williams addressed speculation surrounding her Super Bowl LIX cameo, where she performed a dance during Kendrick Lamar's Drake diss track. She vehemently denied that her participation was intended as a slight toward her ex-boyfriend Drake, whom she dated from 2011 to 2015. Williams acknowledged the public's interpretation of her actions but insisted there were no hard feelings between them. Despite facing backlash, including comments from critics like Stephen A. Smith, Williams found humor in the situation, highlighting her husband's supportive response to the situation.
"Absolutely not," Williams told Time in a profile published Wednesday when asked about the rumors. "I would never do that," she continued. "And that was sad, that anyone would ever think that."
As for where she stands with the 'Passionfruit' rapper, Williams said she has 'never had negative feelings towards him.' We've known him for so many years."
One critic, Stephen A. Smith, went so far as to suggest that Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian should divorce her over the cameo. "If I'm married and my wife is going to join trolling her ex, go back to his ass," he said.
Williams insisted, 'I thought it was hilarious. He's allowed to have his personal opinion. But did you see my husband's remark? It was so eloquent.'
