I&#8217;m a perfectionist, so I&#8217;m like, \u2018Let&#8217;s make it perfect,'&#8221; shares the athlete in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessoffashion.com\/articles\/people\/serena-williams-the-champions-mindset\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">interview<\/a> with&nbsp;<em>Business of Fashion<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She adds that it was &#8220;a lot&#8221; to take on, especially amidst awards season, when she introduced the Best Picture nominee at the Academy Awards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Despite the pressure to create a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1016261\/meghan-markle-is-glowing-as-she-heads-to-baby-shower\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">wedding shower<\/a> worthy of the Duchess of Sussex, Williams definitely rose to the occasion. The Duchess&#8217; intimate shower was held at the trendy Mark Hotel in the penthouse, which comes in at a cost of $75,000 a night.
