After an impressive all-around score of 59.566 during the Paris Olympics qualifying, Biles took to TikTok to celebrate.
In a fun video, she rapped along to Monaleo’s ‘Don Who Leo,’ with lyrics that sparked a mix of reactions.
Despite some critics, many fans were buzzing with excitement about her joyful display.
While some people were focused on the lyrics of her rap, others enjoyed seeing Biles have fun.
Fans took to social media to share their enthusiasm. One fan wrote, “I love her so much lmaooo,” while another noted how Biles seemed unfazed by the presence of stars like Ariana Grande and Tom Cruise. Posts praised her confidence and authenticity, highlighting her as a standout performer.
On Sunday, Biles and the U.S. women’s gymnastics team made a grand entrance at Bercy Arena, dazzling in leotards covered in thousands of crystals.
But don’t be fooled by the sparkle; the team has faced numerous challenges over the years, from health issues to personal losses.
These experiences have made them incredibly resilient, with Biles leading the charge.
Despite a minor calf tweak during her floor exercise warm-up, Biles remained calm and composed.
After a quick fix from coach Laurent Landi, she returned to the floor and delivered stunning performances on both vault and floor exercise.
Her high scores helped the U.S. team secure a total of 172.296, setting high expectations for the upcoming team finals.
Biles wasn’t the only standout.
Sunisa Lee, the reigning Olympic champion, shone brightly on uneven bars, while Jade Carey, despite battling illness, secured a strong position for the vault finals.
Jordan Chiles, a silver medalist from 2021, also performed well, though she will miss the all-around final due to country limits.
Looking Ahead
With the Russian team out of the competition due to the ongoing war in Ukraine, Brazil is expected to be the toughest competitor.
Led by 2022 world champion Rebeca Andrade, they pose a significant challenge.
Meanwhile, Italy and China also showcased strong performances, with China’s Qui Qiyuan delivering an impressive 15.066 on uneven bars, making her a key contender.
Overall, Biles and her team are setting the stage for what promises to be an exciting conclusion to the gymnastics events in Paris.
