Roommates, it’s been a few days since former Olympic track & field hopeful Sha’Carri Richardson made national news after being disqualified from the upcoming Tokyo Olympics due to marijuana use. Fast forward, and Sha’Carri Richardson was all smiles during her first public appearance since the controversy by attending this year’s ESPY Awards.
Sha’Carri Richardson has been the main topic of conversation following the news that she would not be able to attend this year’s Olympics in Tokyo after testing positive for marijuana during the Olympic Trials earlier this month in Oregon.
Well, if you thought that she would be somewhere sad and avoiding the spotlight, you’re wrong because she slipped on her best glam and sat front row at the 2021 ESPY Awards hosted by actor Anthony Mackie—who used his opening monologue to shout Sha’Carri out and make a light-hearted joke about her suspension.
“USA Track & Field, how you mess that up? Weed is a de-enhancing drug. It doesn’t make you do anything besides watch another episode of ‘Bob’s Burgers.’ I don’t get how you justify not letting her run,” Anthony said.
As we previously reported, following the outpouring of support and encouragement she received after testing positive for marijuana just weeks before the upcoming Tokyo Olympics, Sha’Carri has to say goodbye to her 2021 Olympics dreams after not being selected as a member of the 4 x 100 Olympic relay team in Tokyo.
Currently suspended, Sha’Carri had one last hope for her quest to the Olympics, but according to the USA Track & Field roster, the 21-year-old will not be included in any Olympic events.
