The post Serena Williams reacts to cotton plant decor at NYC hotel<\/a> appeared first on ClutchPoints<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Serena Williams<\/a> was taken aback by a decoration she found in her New York City hotel this week.<\/p>\n

The tennis icon was surprised by a cotton plant<\/a> in her hotel, where she asked her followers what they thought.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlright, everyone. How do we feel about cotton as decoration?\u201d Williams asked her followers on her Instagram Stories on Thursday, Sept. 25.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersonally, for me, it doesn\u2019t feel great,\u201d Williams said.<\/p>\n

The 23-time Grand Slam champion was in NYC for Kim Kardashian\u2019s SKIMS event, where she was a part of the promotion of the film Bodies at Work. Fans commented on Williams\u2019 outrage over the cotton plant.<\/p>\n

\u201cWait until she finds out Skims uses cotton<\/a> in some of their clothing,\u201d a fan wrote on X.<\/p>\n

Another fan shared that he saw something before at a hotel.<\/a> \u201cI think I saw the same thing in a Hilton Double Tree 2 weeks ago. Had no idea it was deliberate. Those rascals,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

After many people didn\u2019t see why Williams was upset, another user on X shared<\/a>: \u201cYa\u2019ll notice the skin color of the people who don\u2019t understand why this would be offensive?\u201d<\/p>\n

Serena Williams opens up about GLP-1 weight loss<\/p>\n

Williams has been opening up lately, and one of the biggest updates she shared about her life is the use of the GLP-1 drug<\/a> in which has enabled her to lose 31lbs in eight months.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like a lot of people have this stigma<\/a> on GLP-1s and say things like, \u201cOh, lazy people do it,\u201d or \u201cif you\u2019re working hard enough, you don\u2019t need that,\u201d\u2018 Williams told Vogue last month.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know for a fact from my experience that it\u2019s simply not true. Sometimes you need help. Your story is your story, and it\u2019s okay to make that choice to do it if you want to. I did, and I\u2019m really happy with it,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n

She said prior to the using the GLP-1 she never used any drug to help her with weight loss.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was putting in the work. I actually think it\u2019s a problem a lot of other women can relate to, that you are in the gym and eating healthy, but just can\u2019t get to the level you want or need to,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Overall, the GLP-1 has helped her feel better about herself.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel lighter mentally, I feel sexier, I feel more confident,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
