"It's Raining Men" was for Donna Summer but as a born-again Christian she thought the song was "blasphemous." Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Cher and Barbra Streisand would all decline this song before The Weather Girls recorded it and made it a hit.

In conclusion, Venus Williams is THE blueprint. She changed the way the game is played and how it looked in the process. It is also because of Venus that athletes are more comfortable venturing out into business ventures outside of tennis. Give Queenus Williams HER THINGS! 💐

She made shockwaves in tennis not only because she hit harder and moved faster than all the girls. But she looked different. She was unashamedly black in her appearance. Before her, black women in tennis assimilated to the white culture of the sport.
