Serena Williams Defends 'Bootylicious' Impression of Her

Caroline Wozniacki's antics don't concern tennis star.

A few weeks ago, tennis player's Caroline Wozniacki's impression of Serena Williams -- complete with her top and skirt stuffed with towels -- had plenty of black folks crying foul. Wozniacki was captured in a viral video, making fun of Williams' curves. Williams had little to say at the time, but now, as she prepares for the Australia swing, Williams has finally commented on the controversy in an email to USA Today. "I know Caro and I would call her my friend and I don't think she (meant) anything racist by it," she said. In the email, Williams compared the prank to previous jokes made by Andy Roddick and Novak Djokovic in the past. Williams did, however, advise the tennis star of Denmark that she should probably reconsider playing another joke like that as so many people were offended. (Huffington Post)
