Read our privacy policy Simone Biles stole the show with her awe-inspiring gymnastics floor routine on Friday, the first night of the Gymnastic US Olympic Team Trials in Minneapolis, Minnesota — and fans lapped it up. “Dude watching simone biles’ floor routine is like watching pure magic,” another added, while someone else gushed: “Nothing makes me feel more patriotic than Simone Biles doing a floor routine.” “I cannot stop watching,” podcast host Josh Reynolds wrote. “Simone Biles starting her floor routine with taylor swift is everything,” one fan gushed on X, while another said, “A Simone Biles and Taylor Swift crossover just makes sense.” Her Friday night performance positioned her for a strong run to qualify for the 2024 team the US plans to send to Paris to compete in this year’s Olympic Games. Biles famously pulled out of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, citing mental health reasons at the time, but her performance at the US Olympic trials signals that she’s back and better than ever.
