Who could ever get over Simone Biles‘ rise to the top in the French capital? Her tumultuous time during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics shocked many when she gracefully bowed out of contention. But after staying away from the sport for around two years, the gymnast triumphantly returned to the mat. However, the pièce de résistance was an epic comeback on the world’s grandest stage. The 27-year-old wanted to pull off a successful redemption tour, and the world could only watch in awe.
Even though she had a few missteps along the way, the Olympian left Bercy Arena with 4 medals. She hasn’t shied away from sharing images from the dreamy Parisian stint. In fact, fans have gotten glimpses of what the gymnast was up to throughout the Games. While the Olympics are long gone, it doesn’t seem like the 27-year-old is ready to move past it just yet. She recently surprised fans with a wholesome confession. What was it?
Simone Biles takes a stroll down memory lane
With such an incredible stint, we don’t blame the gymnast for capturing as many memories as she has. But she now finds herself with another challenge on hand. On November 9, Simone Biles shared her predicament with fans on Threads: “i have tiktoks from olympic trials & the olympics that I want to post but it KILLLSSSSS me that they won’t be in chronological order.” Knowing the Olympian, it’s safe to say that these would be masterpieces.
Remember when the women’s gymnastics team shared a few TikToks after clinching an Olympic gold in the team all-around finals? In one of the videos, they comically munched on their Olympic golds. While another one had the squad pose with their medals, with Kanye West’s voice in the background. What did the voiceover say? “Everybody wanted to know what I would do if I didn’t win… I guess we’ll never know.” But here’s the kicker! The 27-year-old happened to be the mastermind behind it all!
Throughout her journey on the redemption tour, Simone Biles shared a few TikToks about her prep, eating French pastries, and some fun moments with her teammates. She has previously shared a few images on Instagram as well. However, this surprise confession has piqued everyone’s interest—what exciting BTS footage have we missed out on? So what do the fans have to say?
Gymnastics fans can’t wait to see what the Olympian has in store
Given how the gymnast slays on TikTok, everyone knows that whatever she has in store will be just as tantalizing and couldn’t help but ask for more. One fan stated, “Post them, Simone! We don’t mind the order—we just want to see the GOAT in action doing her thing! 🐐🥇” We’ve already watched the gymnast work her magic in Bercy Arena. However, we don’t blame this fan for wanting to see it all over again!
On the other hand, fans have been following Simone Biles’ journey through the Netflix documentary too. The second part dropped in October, giving fans a glimpse at what really goes on behind the scenes. Yet, would we ever have enough of watching her reclaim what’s rightfully hers in the French capital? We don’t think so.
A fan exclaimed, “Who cares , girl if u don’t post that behind the scenes magic 😊” While Simone Biles Rising helped put things into perspective, this fan hoped to see things from the G.O.A.T.’s point of view. Another fan seemed to agree, “😂 do what you feel girl” No one can make the Olympian do something she doesn’t want to, and this fan doesn’t fail to remind her of that.
If there’s one thing Simone Biles is known for, it’s for being as straightforward as she can. However, she has never shied away from sharing a slice of her life with the fans. It almost felt like we were a part of her redemption tour in the Bercy Arena. Yet, the need to share her memory neatly has fans reeling, and we can see why!
One fan suggested,“Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.” While there’s nothing wrong with being a perfectionist, this fan couldn’t help but remind the gymnast of that. However, another fan doubled down, “I get it but don’t let perfection be the enemy of MY DEEP DEEP CURIOUSITY 🤷🏾♂” This fan might be looking out for the 27-year-old, but their curiosity definitely got the best of them.
Whatever the Olympian takes on, she makes sure she does it right. So, why wouldn’t she apply that same ideology to her social media game? However, the general consensus shows that the fans aren’t too worried about the chronology. They just want to see more of Simone Biles, and we couldn’t blame them either. But do you agree with the fans?
