WE KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP WITH NAOMI OSAKA

Naomi Osaka did a photoshoot for Frankies Bikinis at my LA house and I sensed SOMETHING was wrong. At first I thought she might have regretted doing the deal with Frankies, because posing in a bikini can be embarrassing even for professional models. Naomi looked great in the suits, but they had her wear a pink wig and she did not look happy. In fact, we never saw her smile all day – with or without the camera. And we never saw her chat with anyone on the set in a relaxed manner. The resulting photos will no doubt sell a lot of swimsuits, but her face looked painfully uncomfortable in every one. Now we understand – she revealed that she is introverted and suffers from social anxiety. Those press conferences must have been torture for her. She deserves a break…

So she decided to give a doubles tennis lesson to her little girl Alexis, who turns three in September. In matching purple tennis outfits, no less! Alexis’s enthusiasm indicates that she just might follow in mom’s footsteps…

IS SURI CRUISE A SORE LOSER?

Suri does not look at all happy as her mother Katie Holmes walks her home after her tennis class. She’s carrying her racket along with her stuffed elephant. Losing is never fun, but it doesn’t happen often for Suri. Just last week her father Tom Cruise sent his private jet to pick her up and take her to the UK where he is filming “All You Need Is Kill” and Tom spent a few days spoiling her.

SERENA WILLIAMS: IS IT MAKEUP – OR PLASTIC SURGERY?

Usually whatever tennis champ Serena Williams wears is the subject of much speculation but this time it was her face. She looked especially pretty and feminine at the Hamptons Magazine cover party sponsored by Grey Goose at Pranna in Manhattan. Serena’s hair is darker and SOME observers think she had her nose surgically tweaked. It’s either THAT or very artfully applied make up. In fact, her nose looks a lot like Kim Kardashian’s now.

VENUS WILLIAMS INTRODUCES BLACK LACE TO THE TENNIS COURT

Venus Williams decided to spice up her rather ordinary EleVen sports fashion collection by designing – of all things -a naughty boudoir inspired tennis outfit with black lace. She sexed up the tennis courts at the French Open, and whether she won was less discussed than her tennis garb. The trademark flesh colored panties left little to the imagination. It was a tennis getup that Dita Von Teese could sink her teeth into. Venus’s body DOES look more streamlined and less over-muscled. Maybe she cut back on the supplements.
