Serena Williams bares all for Breast Cancer Awareness Video. The Tennis Superstar took to Instagram where she shared a video for Breast Cancer Awareness Month and has over 1.5Million Views and more coming.
With the video, she said: “This Breast Cancer Awareness Month I’ve recorded a version of The Divinyls global hit “I Touch Myself” to remind women to self-check regularly.
Yes, this put me out of my comfort zone, but I wanted to do it because it’s an issue that affects all women of all colours, all around the world. Early detection is key – it saves so many lives. I just hope this helps to remind women of that.
The music video is part of the I Touch Myself Project which was created in honour of celebrated diva, Chrissy Amphlett, who passed away from breast cancer, and who gave us her hit song to remind women to put their health first. The project is proudly supported by @BerleiAus for Breast Cancer Network Australia.

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women in the United States and the rest of the World. Early detection is key in the treatment of breast cancer. There are steps you can take to detect breast cancer early when it is most treatable.
Recommended Screening Guidelines:
Mammography. The most important screening test for breast cancer is the mammogram. A mammogram is an X-ray of the breast. It can detect breast cancer up to two years before a tumour can be felt by you or your doctor.
Women age 40 – 45 or older who are at average risk of breast cancer should have a mammogram once a year.
Women at high risk should have yearly mammograms along with an MRI starting at age 30.
Therefore early detection is key and we feel Serena Williams is encouraging just that in women all over the World. If detected early, it can be easily cured. So lets be careful and help fight breast cancer.
