Simone Biles sends out a warning message alerting fans about the rise of fake news

Renowned American gymnast Simone Biles has warned her fans, advising them not to believe everything they read online. Biles is known for her strong personality, often responding to her critics whether it's defending her husband Jonathan Owens against hateful comments from fans or advocating for her own mental health.

Biles is currently on a brief break from gymnastics as her Gold Over America Tour (GOAT) is paused for a week with no-shows scheduled from October 21 to October 26. The tour kicked off on September 17 at the Frontwave Arena in Oceanside, California, and will conclude on November 3 in Detroit.

Simone Biles is not just popular for her exploits in gymnastics but also for her outspoken personality. She recently took to her X account to caution her fans, stating:

“Y’all really need to stop believing everything you read on the internet.”

Earlier, during the 2024 Paris Olympics, she addressed her critics who had questioned her after she withdrew from multiple events at the Tokyo Olympics due to experiencing ‘Twisties.’

She redeemed herself with an outstanding show in Paris where she clinched three gold medals and one silver at this year's quadrennial games. With her 7th gold in Paris, she also became the most decorated USA gymnast in Summer Olympics history.

Simone Biles calls out judges for point deductions during the balance beam event at Paris Olympics 2024

Simone Biles took a dig at the judges for the deduction of points during the balance beam finals of the 2024 Paris Olympics. After completing her balance beam routine, Biles faced a 0.3-point deduction because the judges felt she didn't hold her salute for a long time, which gymnasts are required to perform at both the beginning and end of their routines, according to the rules.

Biles was frustrated over the call by judges. A few hours later, Biles featured in the floor exercise finals. The 23-time World Championships gold medalist took this opportunity to show her frustration by calling out the judges. After finishing her floor exercise routine, she deliberately held her salute for a long period and continued the gesture till she stepped off the podium.

However, it didn’t stop there. A few weeks after the Paris Olympics, while throwing the first pitch at a Houston Astros game, Biles once again did the long salute as she subtly took another dig at the Paris Olympics judges.
