Simone Biles’ candid confession to Snoop Dogg about something she’s done at Olympics for the first time
PARIS, FRANCE: Simone Biles, decorated US gymnast, has been pushing boundaries and winning medals and laurels at the Paris Olympics. Her recent candid moment with Snoop Dogg is pure gold.
While soaking in the excitement of the track and field events, Biles jokingly made a confession to Snoop Dogg. She told the rapper she "ain't no fun", further admitting to the rap icon that she had “never watched any other event before” in her previous three Olympic appearances.
“So this is my first time,” Biles shared, grinning as they cheered for Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone. McLaughlin-Levrone won gold in the 400-meter hurdles.
Simone Biles finally gets time to watch others' games
Simone Biles and Snoop Dogg witnessed a spectacular moment at the Stade de France on August 8, as Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone shattered records with a time of 50.37 seconds in the 400-meter hurdles.
The duo were right there, basking in the thrill of the historic run.
Biles, 27, has been so immersed in her sport that she’s barely had time to catch other Olympic events—something she shared with none other than Snoop Dogg.
Despite her incredible success at the Paris Games, where she bagged three gold medals and a silver, Biles confessed that her focus has always been solely on gymnastics.
“I’ve been so caught up with my own events that I haven’t paid much attention to others,” she told Dogg, reflecting on her intense Olympic journey, as per the New York Post.
Biles' previous Tokyo Olympics trip was overshadowed by the challenging “twisties”, which led to her withdrawing from most events.
But her Olympic story had begun with a bang in Rio, where, at just 19, she dazzled the world with four gold medals in her debut Games.
Simone Biles on 'high expectations' of winning
Speaking candidly to former Olympian Aly Raisman, Simone Biles discussed about the weight of expectations she carries.
She said, “There’s such high expectations on me that I’m supposed to win, so whenever I do win or get whatever medal that is, I feel relief off my shoulder like, ‘I did it. I’m done. Let’s move on to the next.'”
Her golden moments at the Paris Games began with a triumphant performance in the team event, leading the US to victory over Italy. She followed this with wins in the women’s individual all-around and vault events.
“I can’t be more proud of how I’ve done,” Biles said on August 5, radiating with pride and satisfaction, according to Fox News.
Her remarkable achievements continue to inspire, proving that even the greatest need to stay focused on their passion to truly shine.
“I’m 27 years old walking away from [these] Games with four medals to add to my collection. Not mad about it.”
Simone Biles might be closing a chapter with these Paris Games, but she hasn’t entirely ruled out the possibility of dazzling the world again at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.
Meanwhile, Snoop Dogg is making headlines of his own, not just for his lively presence at the Games but for his impressive earnings.
As an NBC host, the rap icon is reportedly raking in a jaw-dropping $500,000 a day during his Paris stint, per The SportsRush.
