On Sunday, August 11, the greatest gymnast of all time experienced at a Parisian club an attempted scam linked to a bottle of champagne. ‘Guys, this club tried to charge me $26,000 for a bottle of champagne’. ‘Are you crazy?’, ‘Obviously, I didn’t buy it. But why did they try to cheat me like that? That’s crazy,’ Simone Biles says in the TikTok video.

The Olympian detailed her last night after the Paris Olympics in the clip. Although she did not name the nightclub, Biles had previously posted videos of the after-party with sparklers and confetti included. There is speculation that the place where she had the champagne incident could be the same one, where a single table can fetch up to 6,000 euros.

Another of the recent experiences shared on the Internet by Simone Biles would live it in a totally different way. The athlete got a big surprise when she went to dinner with her husband Jonathan Owens at the Maple & Ash restaurant in Chicago on August 17. When they sat down at the table, both were celebrated with a personalized menu with the words ‘OLYMPIC F@CKING CHAMPION’ printed on it. A graphic detail with which the restaurant wanted to celebrate his participation in the 2024 Olympics with a record-breaking performance that saw him win three gold medals and a silver medal in gymnastics.
