Everybody who plays me plays me so hard because they always want to beat me.
I'm an actress, model and athlete, and I'd put athlete third on the list.
I am basically a blazer. If I were a clothing item, I would be a legging and a blazer.
I'm thankful to my family, friends, and fans for all of their support.
I am not a robot. I have a heart and I bleed.
I've been involved with Berlei for almost my whole career. I actually discovered them well over 10 years ago, probably 2002 at least. My mom introduced me. She said, "Listen, you should try these bras." And I was like, "Really?" So I tried it and since then I've never worn another bra.
Family's first, and that's what matters most. We realize that our love goes deeper than the tennis game.
I'm Serena Williams on the court, but away I have so many different names. I call myself Butterfly.
Venus [Williams] has an amazing line; I love her collection. I'm always at her office. She has an interior design company and her EleVen company. They have a wonderful office space and I'm always there for the interior part and get to see what she's doing with EleVen.
If I'm winning, I have to act like I'm not bored. If it's A tough match, I have to act like I'm having A good time. I'm a drama queen.
I never left my roots. You can identify me as someone that didn't become high and mighty. Humility is a defining [trait] all of us can forever learn, and I try to be as humble as anyone can be.
For the younger sisters, we always look up to the older sisters because they're always ahead of us and they always win.
I've always been a fighter and I've always fought through things my whole life.
People see me on the court only as a superhero, grunting and winning. They think you're a robot, and I'm not.
