Serena Williams addresses skin bleaching comments

In a stream captured by Live Bitez, Serena appeared to have a snarky tone as she reacted to the skin bleaching talk. The video excerpt begins with Williams sarcastically explaining how bronzers work.

“For you haters out there. Don't bleach my skin. There is a thing called sunlight, and in that sunlight, you have different colors.” Serena said.

Also, Serena Williams called the bleach comments “ridiculous.” He apparently also blamed his skin tone variation on the retouching of photos and selected moments, such as when he wore stage makeup during his daughter's play.

“I'm a dark black woman, and I like who I am, and I like how I look, and that's not my thing. And if people do that that's their thing and they have every opportunity and they should. Don't judge , but you. But this is the world and I'm not judging … but I don't actually whiten my skin. So, we can just clarify this a little bit the tennis champion.

Serena's husband underwent surgery for this

While the innanet obsesses the skin of Serena Williams, when it is offline, it is probably related to the recovery of her husband. Alexis Ohanian recently had thyroid surgery after having a cancer scare.

The 41-year-old man revealed on Thanksgiving who had half her thyroid removed because of “suspicious nodules.” The nodules have grown in size over the past four years, and because Alexis' family has a history of dying from cancer, she didn't want to take any chances. He didn't mention Serena Williams in the post, but his daughters did. Ultimately, he encouraged other dads to stay on top of their health!

“I wasn't going to take any chances; the operation went smoothly and I'm most grateful this Thanksgiving because I got the call this morning that my half of the thyroid, now removed, was actually full of some gnarly nodules that were very likely to become cancerous,” wrote Alexis. “Worst part tbh hasn't been able to get up for 2 weeks but the big man is back at it next week and I'm taking my girls to Disney World this week so life is wonderful.”
