Biles said that a Parisian bar tried to charge her a lot of money for a bottle of champagne after the 2024 Olympics.
The gymnast, who is 27 years old, talked about her night out in France after the Olympics earlier this month in a video she shared to TikTok on August 19. She watched a video of herself putting on makeup and thought about what happened at the Paris bar.
She told me, “After the closing ceremonies, we went out.” “Guys, this club tried to charge me $26,000 for a champagne bottle.” Like, are you crazy?”
Even though she said she “obviously didn’t buy” the bubbly, she still didn’t get why it was so pricey. “But why would you try to trick me like that?” “That’s crazy,” she said.Although Biles was putting on her makeup, she opened up about how she felt about being famous.
Biles said, “I don’t know sometimes, the attention, I’d rather not have it.” She won four medals at the 2024 Olympics. “I’d rather look and act like everyone else, I don’t know.”
A lot of people were shocked by how much the champagne cost in the comments of her TikTok video, which has more than 1.8 million views.
“$26k? “That’s crazy!” Someone else wrote, “$26,000 is crazy.”
“Was it L’Arc?” asked a third.Biles didn’t say which club gave her the champagne, but she did post videos to her Instagram Story from the L’Arc Paris on August 12 after the closing ceremony. Two videos from the night were shown by People. They showed people holding up signs that said “Simone Biles God 4 Life” and “gym legend.” She shared the video with the words “The reason I’m sick this morning” underneath it.
She also posted a black-and-white selfie from the club with her sister Adria Biles. She joked, “If you see me at the club, please tell me to go home…for my own sake and health in the morning.”
The Independent has asked a Biles representative for a response.
Biles got four medals this year at the Olympics in Paris. Three of them were gold, and one was silver. She also won 11 Olympic medals, making her the most accomplished American gymnast in history.
She also recently made fun of one of the videos that went popular at the 2024 Olympics on social media. She was in Paris competing, and fans noticed how serious she looked right before getting on the mat, bars, or beam. They made a joke out of her face movement. Biles made fun of her popular expression by posting a video of herself glaring at the camera several times in different scenarios.
Biles posted videos on TikTok of herself wearing the outfit in different settings. Her first on-screen text said, “Hearing someone on their couch make comments about the routine.” She walked in front of the camera, turned her head, and stared straight at the recorder.
In another part of the video, she looked right at the camera and didn’t blink once. Biles wrote, “When someone talks about women’s sports.”
The next line of text said, “The vault when it sees her coming.” The video ended with Biles sitting at a table and giving the camera the blank stare.
