Alexis Ohanian challenged Stephen A. Smith on live TV over his joking critique of Serena Williams’ Super Bowl performance, defending her legacy and sparking national debate.
Alexis Ohanian confronted ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith on live television on October 9, 2025, over Smith’s February 2025 remarks criticizing Serena Williams’ Super Bowl halftime performance, in which Smith jokingly said he would divorce his wife if she danced with Kendrick Lamar, referencing her appearance with Drake’s ex.
Ohanian challenged Smith’s authority to offer marital advice, noting Smith’s lack of personal experience, and defended Williams’ legacy.
The exchange sparked national debate over media accountability, gender bias, and the boundaries of public commentary on personal relationships, with widespread support for Ohanian’s response.
Smith later clarified his comments were meant humorously and not as advice, but public sentiment largely favored Ohanian’s defense of Williams.
