Serena Williams Steals the Show with Crip Walk During Super Bowl LIX Halftime Performance

Serena Williams set social media on fire with her unexpected appearance during Kendrick Lamar’s electrifying Super Bowl LIX halftime show. Though she later joked that she “died a little” performing, fans found that hard to believe after witnessing her flawless execution.

The tennis legend stunned viewers when she appeared front and center during Lamar’s performance of his Grammy-winning hit Not Like Us. Dressed in blue, Serena confidently hit the crip walk, locking eyes with the camera in a moment that instantly went viral.

After the show, she shared a behind-the-scenes clip while removing her outfit, playfully remarking, “Ooh, I did not crip walk like that at Wimbledon. I would have been fiiiined!”

Her surprise cameo carried deeper significance—both she and Kendrick Lamar hail from Compton, California. The performance was a tribute to their shared hometown, with only a few select guests, including SZA and Samuel L. Jackson, making Serena’s appearance even more legendary.
