Off Court At The 2010 Australian Open

I was so impressed when I read this story in a  recent issue of  Jet magazine. Apparently Serena Williams is enrolled in a 240 hour program to become a nail technician in West Palm Springs, FL.  She has plans to launch her own nail care collection with Nail Tech, the same company  responsible for pushing ”the best hair extensions”, with Paris Hilton.

“Don’t be surprised if you hear about a part-time job I’ve picked up at a local nail salon,” she wrote on a recent blog for Global Grind. 

We all know that Serena is no stranger to stepping outside the box and taking the lead. In 2004 Serena  launched her own fashion line, cleverly named Aneres (Serena spelled backward) which caught worldwide attention. In August 2009, Serena and sister Venus made history when they became part owners of the Miami Dolphins, making them the first African American women to own part of an NFL franchise.

 It’s so refreshing to see a celebrity really getting into what they are selling. A lot of the time you see celebrities putting their names and faces on products that they either know nothing about or just don’t care about. It’s obvious that Serena is in this for more than just money.  Kudos to her for being humble and taking it a step further.

Sooo…Would you let Serena Williams do your nails? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.

    This may be off base, but how about changing the layout every now and then? Maybe not if it won’t look right, but I just get tired of seeing the same thing all the time. My own computer has about 1000 wallpapers that randomly rotate every 15 minutes, lol. Adult ADD I guess. Good post though, thanks.

I am using a completely different browser than most individuals called Opera, so that is what might be causing it? I simply wanted to make sure you know. Thanks for posting some great info.
