Simone Biles is the most decorated 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 friendly 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 own experiences in the sport… saying that when she learned she wouldn’t be able to compete at the national level, it was time to try her luck in music.
The two stretched while trading barbs 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 event… and the two got into formation to see who could stay standing the longest.
SZA tried to play along with Biles by invading her territory… and while some may have considered it cheating, Simone took it in stride.
“She’s coming here?! Haha, she’s going to knock me over,” Biles laughed.
In the end, the tactic worked… because Biles forfeited — crowning SZA the winner of the handstand-off.
“That felt sooooo good,” Biles said after catching the L.
Of course, it’s not every day you hear about someone beating Biles in gymnastics — she has seven Olympic medals… including four gold. She’s also won 23 golds at the World Championships.
Don’t expect the losing streak to continue when Biles competes in Paris in a few weeks…because we’re sure she’ll take it a little more seriously.
