Serena Williams is a free-spirited person and has never tied herself to one thing. The 23 times Grand Slam champion has multiple interests and desires and tries to enjoy them to the fullest.

However, one can never have everything. For Williams, it is not getting a chance to play the host of the very famous show Saturday Night Live. The American tennis legend is about to mark the end of her professional career. Therefore, fans hope she gets to display her funny side and become a part of the show in the second set of her life, just the way she wanted.

Serena Williams on being a host for SNL

Williams in a 2013 interview with Stephen Rodrick spoke about how disappointing it is that she has never been on SNL. She while riding his car said, “Can you believe I’ve never been asked to host Saturday Night Live?”

Thereafter she claimed “And I’m funny. Ask my friends.” Well, Rodrick didn’t feel the need to ask her friends, and she gave a live demonstration of her easy-going, humorous and worthy self. As when he by mistake turned into oncoming traffic and almost risked Williams’ life. All she had to say was, “Attention, attention!”
