The American tennis legend appeared at the Super Dome during Lamar's halftime show performance of his Drake diss track.

Serena Williams is explaining why she did that Super Bowl cameo during Kendrick Lamar's halftime show. Funny, she doesn't mention Drake at all.

I t was a brief but blockbuster cameo. For less than five seconds in the closing moments of the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show, as headliner Kendrick Lamar performed his Grammy-award winning Drake diss track “Not Like Us,” the camera flipped to the corner of the stage to show 43-year-old tennis all-time-great Serena Williams crip walking.
