Serena Williams hosted the 2024 ESPY Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Thursday, July 11
Serena Williams brought the laughs when she hosted the 2024 ESPY Awards on Thursday, July 11.
Williams teased: “Travis and Taylor reportedly spent $100,000 a day on their romance. That’s a lot of money. That’s what I’ve been told Jaylen Brown spends on his beard. It’s very shiny. I like it though.” The tennis champion then took a moment to toast her own success, which includes the Oscar-winning film about her journey, King Richard. “Will Smith played my dad. He was so good it in, he won an Oscar, even after slapping Chris Rock,” she teased, referring to Smith’s altercation with Rock, 59, during the 2022 awards show when Smith, 55, got upset over Rock’s joke about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, and slapped him on stage.
“Believe me, I never wanted to have to choose between tennis and a family,” she wrote in her Vogue essay. “I don’t think it’s fair. If I were a guy, I wouldn’t be writing this because I’d be out there playing and winning while my wife was doing the physical labor of expanding our family. Maybe I’d be more of a Tom Brady if I had that opportunity.”
