Serena Williams‘ has an unending love for karaoke and we all know it right? Apart from playing tennis, if anything she had a keen interest in then it’s always going to be music and singing. Do you know Williams even has a secret ‘karaoke room‘ in her Florida mansion? In fact, according to Architectural Digest reports, she renovated it with the help of her sister, Venus Williams. Talking about her sister, recently Serena Williams recalled a hilarious tendency of Venus while elaborating on the unforgettable karaoke night with Lewis Hamilton and Gigi Hadid.

The 42-year-old tennis legend recently appeared on the popular YouTube show ‘Hot Ones‘. During a conversation with host Sean Evans, she revealed the essential ingredients required for a perfect karaoke night. Williams spoke about that wonderful night in New York, where she got the chance to share the mic with two superstars of a different world. Although Venus Williams was absent at that event, her younger sister didn’t forget to pull her leg while describing her memories from previous karaoke sessions.

Serena revealed, “I had the best karaoke night of my life in New York. It was me, it was like Lewis Hamilton, it was like Gigi. It was a private room so it was just like, we got to pick and choose our own songs and no one was hogging the mic.” Serena Williams further went on to add, “Like, my sister always hogs the mic. I don’t think she was there because people got to sing!“

While Hamilton has stated that Serena is his favorite sportsperson outside of F1, with Gigi Hadid the retired tennis players shares a fashion equation. But outside of sports, the trio has found a common love for belting out tunes with each other!

Her love for karaoke is so intense that Serena Williams once said, she will “probably be karaoke-ing” with her daughter, Olympia on the first day after her retirement from the racquet. Since then fans have witnessed several such heartwarming moments featuring the mom-daughter duo.

However, perhaps someone might be jealous of Olympia after hearing this and her name is Danielle Collins. The American tennis star previously revealed that she is “dying for” a karaoke night with the American tennis legend. Here are some more moments when Serena Williams was spotted showcasing her love for karaoke.

Do you know Serena Williams has “Adele syndrome”?

In 2012, she revealed that she loves to sing tracks from Adele’s ‘Rolling In The Deep‘ when she takes to the mic. Voicing out her admiration for the renowned English singer-songwriter, Serena Williams said, “I call it the Adele syndrome, not that I have an Adele voice. My voice is so terrible.” Her obsession with the singer pushes her to replicate her voice whenever she tries to sing. Talking about replicating, in 2014 she performed ‘Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend’ at the Arena in New York.

During that program, the retired WTA star revealed, “I do like 80s, 90s rock because it’s good for my voice. The thing about karaoke is picking a song that works for your voice, that way if you sing like a cat — like I do — you can still sound pretty good.” Then again, even in the car she doesn’t miss a chance to showcase her singing skills. While traveling in a car to attend a Gucci event in 2021 with her husband Alexis Ohanian, Serena was spotted singing ‘Hello’ (again, by Adele). Fans have enjoyed seeing her holding the racquet in her hand for 27 years, now they seem to be having the same excitement seeing her holding the mic in her hand.
