The Serena Williams interview where she's asked to smile.

“You’re not making it super enjoyable… Just being honest.”

Upside of just playing the match of your life against your sister? Winning.

Downside? Having to talk to rude reporters who think it’s their right to discuss the level of happiness you might be experiencing at that moment.

As Serena Williams, 33-year-old champion tennis player, beat her sister Venus in the quarter-finals of the US Open, she was probably pretty stoked. But she was also very tired. And really just wanted to go to sleep.

Alas, as she had just won a very important, heavily publicized match, she had to spend the next hour getting photos taken and answering questions from reporters.

That’s about the moment one reporter decided to comment on why she didn’t seem too happy to be sitting there answering questions at 11.30pm. Bad move, reporter guy.

You can watch the video below. Post continues after video.

If you can’t listen to the interview right now, or can’t quite make out what the rude reporter said, it’s been helpfully transcribed for you below.

BOOM. There you have it. How to shut down a reporter in one sentence: “I don’t want to be here.”

She doesn’t care at all.
