Serena Williams Talks Beyonce Twerk,12 Kids And More On WSJ Magazine

Tennis champion, Serena Williams spoke to Jason Gay of Wall Street Journal Magazine summer edition. She revealed that she was not a morning person at all. She spoke on that twerk she did on Beyonce's formation video and much more.

 On dancing in Beyonce's Formation Video:

“I’ve known Bey for a long time,” Williams says. She also confesses: “I got really sore from dancing!” 

By now everyone in tennis knows that Serena Williams is a karaoke warrior (“That’s her thing,” says Wozniacki), but she also continues to be fascinated with dance. Each year, she and Venus host a competition called the Williams Invitational in which teams compete in, among other events, dance routines. Then there was Williams’s appearance in Beyoncé’s “Sorry” video, which Serena had to keep confidential for months. 

“If you tell me, ‘Don’t say anything,’ I won’t say anything,” Williams says.
“She really kept it a secret,” says Serena’s tennis player pal Caroline Wozniacki, who didn’t know about the video until she saw it.

On alternative career, if not tennis

“I think I would be in California,” she says. “Maybe I would be married? Maybe I would have kids? I would like to believe I would. I would have probably gone into some kind of science. I love animals.” She rubs Lorelei on her pink, white-haired belly. “Maybe I would have become a veterinarian.” 

“Being a mom would be fun,” Williams says. How many children? Twelve,” she says, deadpan. “A baker’s dozen,” she continues, laughing.
