Serena swaps skirts for swimwear

Tennis star Serena Williams is set to grace the pages of Harper’s Bizarre magazine, swapping her tennis skirt for a swimsuit.

The 28-year-old tennis champion said she always wanted to have the same body as her sister Venus, but accepted that she ‘wasn’t like’ her sibling when she reached the age of 23.

serena-williamsSerena, who will appear in the magazine’s August issue, certainly appears to be more at ease with her body image now as she put on an Eres-designed swimsuit for the photo shoot.

The star, who split up from her boyfriend Common in April, spoke about the differences between her body and her sister’s. She said: “She’s totally different. I’m super curvy.

“I have big boobs and this massive butt. She’s tall and she’s like a model and she fits everything.”

Serena has previously appeared in swimwear for Sports Illustrated, slipping into a white bikini for a shoot in February 2003.

The star, who is now more accepting of her body shape, said that when she was growing up she was always “wanting to look like her sister” or “wanting to be” her sister and trying to get into her clothes, but she realised that after a while she could not.

She added: “But it’s fine. Now I’m obviously good, but it’s a weird thing.

“Since I don’t look like every other girl, it takes a while to be okay with that. To be different. But different is good.”
