Shirley Manson talked about how women in sports or in any sphere, in general, were disregarded. She also talked about how the achievements of women were discredited. She then wrote that she feels fortunate to have witnessed the athleticism, work ethic, and dominance of the Williams sisters on the court. She feels grateful for all the hard work and morale boost the sisters have given the women. Manson was awestruck by Venus as she met her after her concert.

To Manson’s surprise, Venus Williams is a huge fan of the band and their works. She was amazed when Venus dropped a reference to one of their lesser-known songs. Mason wrote a heartfelt caption for Venus and it seems like it was a great moment for the two amazing people who enjoy each other’s works a lot.
