It's now official - Venus and Serena Williams are now part owners of the National Football League's Miami Dolphins. The accomplishment makes them the first female African-Americans to hold an ownership stake in a NFL franchise.
The tennis stars have joined Marc Anthony, Jennifer Lopez and Gloria and Emilio Estefan in becoming limited ownership partners in the Florida team.
"I am so excited to be part of such a renowned organization," says Serena. "Having spent so much of my childhood in the area, being involved with a staple of Miami culture is a huge honor. We look forward to many championships and much success together with the Miami Dolphins."
Agrees Venus, "I am honored to be a partner in the Miami Dolphins franchise and thankful to owner Stephen Ross for allowing Serena and I to be part of Miami Dolphins history."
In addition to welcoming these new owners to the Dolphins, other celebrity oriented promotions will further tap into Miami's cultural diversity. Rapper T-Pain has updated the Dolphins' out-of-date fight song, and other pop stars such as Fergie, who is a frequent visitor to Miami and a lover of the Dolphins, will perform at football games.
