Even though the Williams sisters seem to have gelled well with stardom, that doesn’t seem to be the case with the now 70-year-old Oracene. Starting with a brief about her mother, Venus said, “She (mother) doesn’t want to go to all these places. For example, we like to go out. She’s like, I don’t know why you guys like to go out. I’m like, it’s fun.”

Following the brief, she started elaborating on the first time she went clubbing with her mother, Oracene. “I couldn’t take her to a nightclub. Although one time we went in Moscow. It was so funny, we were out. We didn’t have any money. So, we couldn’t actually get home. We made some friends, went to eat in the middle of the night, and managed to get home.”

Laughing off the hilarious incident, she further admitted that it was the first and the last time her mother, Oracene, went clubbing. “That was always my mom. That was the one and only time I went out with my mom and it happened to be like, far far away from home,” she said.
