A few days ago Naomi Osaka spoke about her ‘crippling shyness’ on the big stages of tennis or whenever she comes across celebrities like Jay-Z. She stated having ‘a lot of regrets’ before going to bed. It was all because she couldn’t utter everything that she really wanted to, and it was due to her reserved nature. Also, she feels it’s simply a waste of time.
The Japanese star recently started an interview series on Instagram and she conferred with various tennis stars. Till now Frances Tiafoe, Gael Monfils, and Stefanos Tsitsipas have been on her show, and Naomi has confidently interviewed them and was candid throughout the session.
After coming across her flawless interviewing skills, one of her fans on Twitter complimented Osaka for unveiling the blanket of shyness. “Love Naomi coming out of her shyness! I think she was faking being shy. She’s a natural-born interviewer!!” the fan tweeted.
