*Tennis superstar Serena Williams is serving fierce body in the July/August of the Wall Street Journal magazine, in which she discusses — among many things — how sore she was after twerking in Beyonce’s “Sorry” video.
The 21-time Grand Slam winner is styling in Balmain, Versace & Onia swimwear in a classic spread. Inside, Serena shares what she would be doing if she wasn’t the world’s No. 1 female tennis player.
“Ordinary things,” she said. “I’d go to the mall. I never go to the mall.”

She also revealed that she would likely be a veterinarian if she wasn’t a tennis champion.
“I think I would be in California,” she said “Maybe I would be married? Maybe I would have kids? I would like to believe I would. I would have probably gone into some kind of science. I love animals. Maybe I would have become a veterinarian.”
The HSN designer and philanthropist confessed that after twerking and in Beyonce’s “Sorry” video for her visual album “Lemonade,” she was sore.
“I’ve known Bey for a long time,” Serena said. “I got really sore from dancing!” She added that she had to stay mum about the project for months. “If you tell me, ‘Don’t say anything,’ I won’t say anything,” Williams said.
Williams frolicked through the halls of a Louisiana plantation home before dancing alongside Beyonce as she lounged in a throne-like chair in the video. Serena’s cameo was a pleasant surprise for fans, and Serena said she had no trouble keeping her appearance a secret.
“If you tell me, ‘Don’t say anything,’ I won’t say anything,” Williams told WSJ.
“Lemonade” has been certified platinum and, according to Billboard, all 12 songs on the album debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 in May – making Beyoncé the first woman to chart 12 songs on the list at once.
