Simone Biles is essentially the most adorned gymnast of all time, but the R&B sensation SZA impressively held her own against the best of them all on the mat — with the two competing head to head in a handstand!!
The delightful competition took place at Biles’ gym in a promotion for the 2024 Summer Olympics… with the Grammy winner meeting the American athlete for the first time in what she called a dream come true.
The “Snooze” artist — a former gymnast — opened up about her personal experiences in the sport… saying that once she knew she wouldn’t be able to compete on the national stage, it was time to try her luck in music.
The two stretched while taking turns some more before the handstand showdown… with SZA showing off her wild flexibility as she did the splits and answered Biles’ questions.
Then, it was time for the main occasion… and the two got into formation to see who could stay standing the longest.
SZA tried to play with Biles by getting on her turf… and while some would consider it dishonest, Simone took it in stride.
“She’s coming here?! Haha, she’s going to knock me over,” Biles laughed.
Ultimately, the tactic worked… Biles forfeited — crowning SZA the winner of the handstand-off.
“That felt sooo good,” Biles said after catching the L.
After all, it’s not every day you hear about someone beating Biles in gymnastics — she’s won seven Olympic medals… along with four golds. She’s also won 23 golds at the World Championships.
Don’t count on the losing streak continuing when Biles competes in Paris in a few weeks… ’cause we’re sure she’ll take it a little more seriously.
