THE END OF ME: Sha’Carri Richardson lamentably announces her ex Janeek Brown passing this morning.
Sha’Carri Richardson is the buzz of the track world in 2024. Over the last two years, the American sprinter has left the track in a blaze. She is the defending 100m world champion, clocking 10.65 seconds in Budapest last August. This is tied for the quickest display in the tournament during the last two years.
Richardson has the elegance to match the substance, often arriving at the starting gate dressed to the nines. Many of her supporters find her predilection for inch-perfect hair and eye-catching acrylic nails extremely personal, influenced by her family, her idol, the late Florence Griffith-Joyner, and a larger heritage of nail styling found in Black enclaves across the Southern United States.
All of this is to imply that Richardson’s shadow is far larger than the constraints of track and field would normally allow. With the 24-year-old set to contend for gold in this year’s 100m, another area of her personal life is generating a lot of buzz: Richardson’s dating history.
