On Sunday, Alexis Ohanian upped the game with a new post, showing off the costume he wore to 'commit' to his role in Olympia's ballet performance.

"When you fully commit to your role in your daughter's ballet," he captioned the selfie, which showed him in an eye-catching red outfit.

Speaking in an interview in 2024, Alexis Ohanian revealed that his daughter Olympia motivated him to start investing seriously in women's sports, recalling an instant with her and wife Serena Williams watching the 2019 women's soccer World Cup.

"We were watching the final of the World Cup in 2019 from our rented house in Wimbledon. Olympia was running around in her Alex Morgan jersey, and I said, 'Wouldn't it be great if she played on a national team one day?'" "And Serena was like, 'Not until they pay her what she's worth.' And I was like, 'Touché, okay, challenge accepted.' And that's what motivated me to buy a team and help be a part of the change," Ohanian said.

Ohanian is now a big investor in women's soccer, holding stakes in Chelsea's women's team as well as in Angel City FC. He is also the founder of Athlos, a track and field event aimed at showcasing the biggest women's athletes in the world.
