Naomi Osaka teases Sesame Street appearance on social media
The former No. 1 posed with Elmo and elsewhere on the set of the famed children’s show.
Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street? It seems as though Naomi Osaka may have an idea.
The former world No. 1 took to social media on Wednesday to share some special images of herself on the set of Sesame Street, including a shot of a dressing room with her name on it.
“Got Elmo out here taking selfies,” Osaka wrote alongside a photo with the notoriously ticklish Muppet.
Osaka is in the midst of a tennis sabbatical after announcing an indefinite break following the US Open, and looks likely to be using some of the time to appear on the long-running educational children’s program.
Where might Osaka guest star next? Perhaps the four-time major champion will make good on a hilarious Wimbledon moment, when two fans dressed as Teletubbies cheered her on to a win over Katie Boulter back in 2018.
