Now, it’s Serena Williams asking, ‘Ain’t you tired?’ 

After the 23-time Grand Slam title holder appeared in Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime performance Feb. 9, she responded to the widespread backlash that her cameo was a “petty” dig at ex Drake.  

“Gosh I’m so late to the game (I’ve been sick) & busy investing in billion dollar companies and running @WYNbeauty,” Serena wrote in a Feb. 17 post on X, formerly Twitter. “Def not dancing to be petty lol.”

And while Serena appeared alongside Kendrick and SZA at the Feb. 9 game—which saw the Philadelphia Eagles best the Kansas City Chiefs—she emphasized that her cameo was not to get back at her ex, whom she dated in the early 2010s. 

“I think I proved 23 times over (not counting 4 gold medals) that I simply don’t have time for petty,” Serena continued. “All love and respect always nothing negative here.”

Indeed, while Serena and Drake’s dating history may have been a welcome coincidence amid Kendrick’s ongoing feud with the “In My Feelings” rapper, the tennis pro’s appearance in the halftime show went much deeper, as her husband Alexis Ohanian previously explained.
