“I have tears in my eyes and Serena makes me feel..” Kemi Adetiba tears up over Serena Williams’ ovation in America
Nollywood movie producer and director, Kemi Adetiba has penned a teary note regarding world tennis champion, Serena Williams’ standing ovation at the Ongoing US Open.
A video making rounds on social media captured the audience at the US Open chanting Serena Williams’ name when she entered the tennis court.
Kemi Adetiba, who reshared the video on her social media page, expressed how powerful the video had inspired her to be great.
The King of Boys creator was delighted at how thousands of audiences got on their feet to give Serena Williams a standing ovation accompanied by chants of her name.
The newly married Kemi Adetiba also wished she could touch the hearts and minds of millions of people who had and never would have personal contact with her.
She wrote: Serena’s daughter will never forget this moment.
How POWERFUL her mother looked. How undisputedly RESPECTED she is. How thousands of people got on their feet to give her a standing ovation and chant her name.
Olympia left that stadium feeling like she could do and be ANYTHING she wanted in this world.
Just watching this clip myself, I have tears in my eyes and Serena makes me feel I still have a lot of work to do, and feats to conquer. But that feeling is not borne out of intimidation… But inspiration.
And when you’re able to touch and achieve that in the hearts and minds of millions of people who have never and probably will never have any personal contact with you, then you know you’re a Legend… An Icon… The G.O.A.T!!
No matter how this US OPEN 2022 ends for her, (and God knows we want that 24th Grand Slam mic-drop for her and us) SERENA WILLIAMS already sits on the throne of GREATEST OF ALL TIME!! 🐐
