‘When One Door Closes’: Sha’Carri Richardson Stars In New Beats by Dre Commercial

Sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson may have to sit out of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics this summer, but more opportunities are heading her way.

On Tuesday, Richardson appeared in the new Beats by Dre commercial, which not only promoted their new Beats Studio Buds, but also revealed that Kanye West’s album “Donda” would be released this upcoming Friday. West’s single “No Child Left Behind” was used as the background music for the ad.

Beats by Dre showed full support of Richardson despite her suspension from the Olympics by writing “Sha’Carri doesn’t need you to let her do anything,” in the description box on YouTube. Fans also applauded Richardson for landing the gig with the audio products manufacturing company.

One person said, “They thought they did something when they took her out the olympics but the man above had other plans …” Another wrote, “when one door closes….what they said again????”

Another fan pointed out an interesting relation between the “Jesus Walks” rapper, Richardson, and both of their mothers. The person wrote, “Isn’t that amazing how his album is named after his mom and shacari can’t run because of an honest mistake of smoking because she lost her mom. This song beautiful.”
