Serena Williams: What she said, really meant and definitely did not

Serena Williams Cuts the Crap and Does the Crip

What she said:

“I walk out there, do the Crip walk and try to intimidate them.”

Serena Williams jokes that she tries to be as formidable with her on-court behaviour as with her tennis. Williams was responding to Ana Ivanovic’s claim that she is intimidating to her opponents.

What she really meant:

“If Petkovic can dance, I can do the Crip walk. Which, do you think, is more scary?”

What she definitely didn’t:

“I’m cutting a rap album soon. It’s called ‘Gal Wars At Flushing Meadows’”
