Celebrity fans praise Simone Biles for prioritizing mental health over Olympics

LA Times  

U.S. gymnast Simone Biles waits for her turn to perform during the artistic gymnastics women’s final at the Olympics in Tokyo on Tuesday. — AB July 27, 2021 It’s impossible to understand the pressure Simone Biles—the greatest gymnast in the history of the sport—and Naomi Osaka are feeling, but we’re lucky to live in a time where young Black trailblazers are publicly prioritizing their mental health above all else. July 27, 2021 Simone Biles has carried this entire damn federation on her back since the first year of Obama’s second term. — Hemal Jhaveri July 27, 2021 Simone Biles stated her reason for coming back was bc if none of the USA gymnasts who’d been abused were current, it would be too easily swept under the rug, and she deserves a medal for that alone. — Chris Vanderveen July 27, 2021 Simone Biles putting her own mental health and well-being first in the face of immense stress and pressure is just very very brave and I just hope she’s able to get back to doing what she loves, for herself.
