A song which rhymes “tennis racquet” with “Gucci glasses” can’t be taken seriously, surely? This is Serena Williams’ attempt to rebrand herself from Wimbledon champion to buzz new MC. She references the game throughout the leaked verse, including; “…on the court I serve em’ up, no subpoena,” and assures us she can “cook up the track like a frozen pizza.” Wonderland thought it fitting to have a look at some other celebrity rap missteps…

1. Joaquin Phoenix

Phoenix’s mokumentary film I’m Still Here documents his apparent career change from actor to rapper. Despite help from Diddy, this was the result…

2. Louis Theroux

Bless him…

3. Kobe Bryant ft. Tyra Banks

Who knew Kobe had a rap career? It lasted one song…

4. Chet Haze (aka Tom Hank’s son)

Chet rips off Wiz Khalifa’s “Black and Yellow” in an ode to his university days.

5. Tila Tequila

Not quite sure what her profession is, but it surely can’t be rapper…
