The US women’s gymnastics team, led by Simone Biles, drew a star-studded audience at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. Despite competing with an injury, Biles set impressive scores in the Women’s Qualification event. Notable celebrities in attendance included Tom Cruise, Jessica Chastain, Lady Gaga, Snoop Dogg, Ariana Grande, Nick Jonas, and more. Biles, a seven-time Olympic medalist, made a comeback after struggling in the 2020 Tokyo Games due to the “twisties.” This year, she competed with a calf injury but still impressed with her performance. US coach Cecile Landi praised Biles for her resilience and determination. It was a historic moment as Biles became the fourth American woman to compete in three Olympic games and the oldest American gymnast in 72 years. The team, including Biles and her teammates, scored well in the qualifying event. Fans can watch all Olympic events on cable channels like NBC, USA Network, and E!, as well as stream on Peacock. Biles’ return to competition has been a highlight of the Games, showcasing her talent and perseverance on the world stage.
