From not being afraid to speak her truth to breaking records on the track, Sha’carri Richardson is constantly making the news. And, during the USATF events, Richardson once again made the headlines for taking out her signature orange wig prior to a 100m race. Inspired by the WWE legend Sasha Banks, the athlete took this step to highlight her return to the sport.

Richardson’s move left the crowd in complete awe. Many fans also expressed their admiration for the runner through social media. However, Jamaican sprinter Shelly-Ann-Fraser-Pryce seems to have a different view on Richardson’s bold step. In an interaction with a fan, the Olympic medalist gave her own opinion on the move. Many also speculate about her reply to be a jab at Sha’Carri Richardson.

Shelly-Ann-Fraser- Pryce’s opinion on Richardson’s move.

On Thursday, a Twitter account posted an interaction between a fan and Olympic medalist Shelly-Ann-Fraser-Pryce with the caption “Shelly’s plan is no plan.” In the interaction, the fan left a comment on Fraser- Pryce’s Facebook asking after Richardson’s move on the track, what is the athlete planning to do? The Olympic medalist humorously stated that she won’t willingly remove her wig, as she wrote back, “The only way any wig from my executive collection will reach grunge is if it flies off mid-stride, and I don’t plan on that happening ever.”

Many fans found this reply funny as they recall the athlete’s previous comments about her wigs, while some also showed their support for the Olympian’s hair care brand, Lady Shelly. However, some also speculated that this reply is a diss to Sha’Carri Richardson.
