Simone Biles can really do it all — gymnastics and get glammed up.

Biles, 27, was announced as Sports Illustrated’s 2024 Sportsperson of the Year on Thursday, January 2, and looked as chic as ever in her cover shoot. From snakeskin getups to sheer dresses, her sartorial style shined through.

In one shot, Biles, who was styled by Kesha McLeod, proved that she stays on top of current trends while rocking a pair of silver sequin booty shorts by Retrofête. Biles made sure fans got a glimpse of her toned legs by pairing the glittery shorts with scrappy Giuseppe Zanotti heels. The gymnast tied her outfit together with a fitted black SER.O.YA bodysuit and Effy Jewelry diamond rings.

Biles, who is known to rock a full face of makeup on and off the beam, donned a full beat for her shoot, thanks to Deja Blackwell. Her makeup included long lashes, filled-in eyebrows, a touch of eyeshadow, blushed cheeks and glossy lips. Her highlighted hair was styled by Justin Revenge and parted down the middle and styled in bouncy curls.

Photographed by Shaniqwa Jarvis, Biles looked sexy in a snakeskin ensemble featuring a textured silhouette and thumbholes. Biles accessorized with hoop earrings for the image, and a funky brown-and-white nail design.

Elsewhere in her photo shoot, Biles looked extra glamorous in a sheer plunging halter bodysuit and structured skirt by David Kona. The piece featured a pleated design that snatched at her was it, a wired rum and more see-through fabric that cascaded down her legs.

While chatting with Sports Illustrated, Biles opened up about competing in the 2024 Paris Olympics after dropping out of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, sharing, “You kind of have to go up there and tell yourself, I’m a boss ass bitch.”

The Best Red Carpet Looks From the ‘Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’ 2024 Launch Party

During the Olympics, Biles earned three gold medals and one silver medal, making her the most decorated gymnast in history.

Simone Biles may be the most decorated American gymnast, but sometimes, she’s just like us, struggling to unpack after a trip.

The 11-time Olympic medalist said in a recent Instagram story post that even though it has been nearly six months, she still has yet to unpack one of her suitcases from her trip to the 2024 Paris Olympics, which officially wrapped Aug. 11, 2024.

“I’m truly ashamed to admit that I still have not unpacked one of my suitcases from the olympics…” Biles captioned her post, which was re-shared by People.

The accompanying photo shows Biles’ dark blue suitcase opened to reveal some of her Team USA gear, including a white crewneck sweater with the U.S. flag in the center.

“All clean clothes but still,” she added near the bottom of the snapshot.

Biles, 27, made a remarkable comeback in Paris last summer, returning for her third Olympics and taking home four medals, winning gold in the women’s artistic gymnastics individual all-around, the team event and the women’s vault final, as well as a silver medal in the floor exercise final.

The Paris Games brought Biles’ total Olympic medal count to 11, including seven gold medals, two silver and two bronze, landing her in the history books as the second-most decorated female Olympic gymnast and cementing her as one of the greatest gymnasts of all time.

Since returning from the games, Biles has stayed busy, headlining the Gold Over America Tour in September, a gymnastics-themed traveling show, which ran until Nov. 3, 2024. She also attended the 2024 CMA Awards, also in November, walking the red carpet in a metallic silver gown and sporting a shorter hairstyle.

Last month, Biles was named the Sports Illustrated 2024 Sportsperson of the Year and spoke at the Jan. 7 awards ceremony, held at the Wynn Las Vegas hotel.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl three-peat bid may have ended in heartbreak, but another All-American superstar isn’t slowing down. As the Philadelphia Eagles celebrated a dominant 40-22 victory, Simone Biles was making moves of her own—off the football field. And despite the Super Bowl frenzy, her biggest supporter, Jonathan Owens, was right by her side. The Green Bay Packers’ safety may have just wrapped up his own football season prematurely, but on this night, he was there not as an athlete, but as a husband – cheering for Biles in a moment that was about more than just competition. Curious about what took place?

Simone Biles hosted her landmark showcase, the 8th Biles International Invitational. It happened in Houston, Texas, from January 31 to February 2, drawing gymnasts from all over to the George R. Brown Convention Center. The event hosted by Biles’ family-owned World Champions Centre is more than just a meeting; it is a platform for young talent to shine and has become a key fixture since 2018, which draws over 2,000 female gymnasts, many aiming to follow in Biles’ legendary footsteps.

Reflecting on the event’s success, Biles took to Instagram today. With a carousel of photos, she wrote: “hosted our 8th annual Biles International Invitational 🤍 I’ll forever be grateful to have this opportunity! Congrats to all the gymnasts that came out to compete & good luck the rest of season! Keep killing it! thanks to all the volunteers & my family who came out to help run the event!”

For Biles, the Biles International Invitational has been a passion project since 2017—a way to give back to the sport that made her a global icon. And while she may be taking a brief pause from training, she’s far from slowing down. The 4-foot-8, Biles gymnast has amassed 11 Olympic medals to go with 30 World championships medal. But beyond the medals, the mission is close to her heart, which started as a brainchild in 2017, one year before its first edition.

“A big focus for me right now is inspiring the next generation of female athletes to dominate in sports like just men, which we honestly proved at the Olympics when women overall picked up more medals than men,” Biles told PEOPLE in 2017. “Because once you are in the spotlight, you need to use that momentum.”

Even as she pushes forward with her noble cause, some pieces of Simone Biles’ Olympic journey remain right where she left them!!

Simone Biles Admits She’s Yet to Unpack Her 2024 Olympics Suitcase

The 7 time- Olympic gold medalist recently shared a candid moment on her Instagram Story, which revealed that she still hasn’t unpacked one of her suitcases from the Paris Olympics. The blue baggage, left unzipped, showed a white U.S.A. sweatshirt, a blue backpack, and gray sweatpants, with a pair of white sneakers resting nearby.

“I’m truly ashamed to admit that I still have not unpacked one of my suitcases from the Olympics,” Biles wrote over the image, adding that it was full of “all clean clothes.”

The story comes Just weeks later, she revealed another lingering piece of her Olympic past—her so-called “forbidden Olympics closet.” But it’s not just a closet; it’s a space filled with memories, emotions, and reminders of the highs and lows of her storied career.

Biles opened up about the room in her Sports Illustrated cover story, explaining that she and her husband, Jonathan Owens, have repurposed a rarely used guest room to store her Team USA gear from the Tokyo Olympics. It’s a place she rarely visits, but when Owens is away, she sometimes finds herself sifting through the leotards, pins, and other keepsakes—often ending in tears.

Tokyo 2020 was meant to be the pinnacle of her career, but instead, it became the stage for one of her most challenging moments. Biles had to pull out of several events because of the “twisties.” She made headlines for putting her mental health first. This experience was hard but also changed her. In Paris 2024, she came back stronger. Despite a calf injury, she won three gold medals and one silver.

Simone Biles, Sha’Carri Richardson among 2025 Met Gala host committee members

Gymnastics superstar Simone Biles will be dressing to impress this May, with the 11-time Olympic medallist set to serve as a member of the 2025 Met Gala host committee, Vogue magazine announced Tuesday (4 February).

Biles and husband Jonathan Owens, who plays for the Chicago Bears in the NFL, will join two other Olympians, including honorary chair LeBron James, a three-time Olympic champion in basketball, and Sha’Carri Richardson, who won gold in the women’s 4x100m relay and silver in the 100m at the Olympic Games Paris 2024.

Formula One star Lewis Hamilton is one of the event’s co-chairs, while WNBA player Angel Reese will serve alongside Biles on the host committee. The Met Gala is scheduled for 5 May.

The 2025 event is part of an exhibition called “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Gala’s dress code, also announced Tuesday by Vogue, is “Tailored for You,” which is “a nod to the exhibition’s focus on menswear and is purposefully designed to provide guidance and invite creative interpretation,” according to the iconic fashion magazine.

Biles previously attended the Met Gala in 2021. She also graced the cover of Vogue in the summer of 2020.

Simone Biles’ Feelings About 88-Pound Met Gala Dress Unearthed as She Prepares to Go with Jonathan Owens This Time Around

“I typically gravitate towards classic, laid back styles”, said a 16-year-old Simone Biles when asked about the kind of fashion she leans forward to. Little did that teenage Olympic gold medalist know that one day she would become a diva by beating Taylor Swift herself in the fashion race. That’s exactly what happened when Simone Biles & Jonathan Owens got their invite to be at the Met as 2025 Costume Institute Benefit Host Committee. And Taylor missed out on the list.

After the Paris Olympics, Simone Biles isn’t missing any on showcasing her iconic fashion sense. And one of the way she is doing it is by turning into a cheerleader for husband Jonathan Owens as he played for the Chicago Bears. The Bears might not had a successful season but her WAG outfits did stir up the NFL world. Little did Simone know then that she’d end up going to one of the most prestigious fashion events in the world. But hold on, this won’t be the first time for the Gymnastics GOAT to step into the fashion world.

Yes, you heard it right! Simone made her debut at the Met Gala way back in 2021, merely months after one of the biggest moments in her career – her ‘twisties’ episode at the Tokyo Olympics. While that moment itself was enough to bring a revolution in the gymnastics world, by starting a conversation around mental health. Her aura on the red carpet of Met 2021 was completely something else!

The 7x Olympic gold medalist was wearing custom AREA x Athleta, which was an 88-pound dress designed by Beckett Fogg and Piotrek Panszczyk of AREA. Needless to say, the couture turned out to be as beautiful as it can get to rock the theme of Met 2021 – In America – A Lexicon of Fashion. Brand partner of Athleta, wearing that 88-pound dress made Simone feel even more empowered. In her interview with the Vogue during final dress fitting, she said, “How do I feel in the dress? It’s definitely heavy, but I feel beautiful, strong, and empowered.” 

And that’s exactly the purpose of the three-in-one outfit. It consists of a hand-embellished skirt covered in Swarovski crystals which weighed 88 pounds; a minidress underneath; and a glittering black catsuit decorated to look like a starry night sky (though each of the stars is really Athleta’s logo, the chi).

Even after almost 4 years we can’t stop talking about her 2021 Met look and it seems, it’s the same for the GOAT as well. Just a few minutes back Biles took to her Instagram and added three stories to showcase some unseen moments from her fitting and the Met Gala itself. Posting the first picture, she wrote, “throwback to my 1st time @the met gala ❤️”. The second picture consisted of three of her pictures put together on the stairs of the Met with the caption, “2021  just me & my 88 lb dress”.

But, but but, one picture of the same would leave everyone shocked, the good shocked. It showed Simone wearing only one part of the three-layered dress, definitely dropping some significant pounds off of herself. Now, however much she lost, this can only be told by the GOAT herself. Maybe someone can ask her the same this time around?

While the Gymnastics GOAT’s customized crystalized dress for Met 2021 was indeed one of a kind, it will be worthwhile to see what she comes up with this year! Till then let’s refresh our memory of her NFL outfit.

Simone Biles customized NFL outfits

Last year just before Christmas, while heading toward yet another game of Owens, Biles sat down for an interview with ‘Olympics.com.’ Therein, she let out her thoughts about what goes on in the making of her NFL outfits. “Honestly, I reach out to some of the creators that make the apparel, and I have no ideas. I let them kind of freeball it, and I say, ‘Surprise me.’ And then that’s how I piece them together”, said Biles of her outfits.

Little did we all know that the best of her NFL outfits to cheer for Jonathan Owens was coming on December 26, the Bears game against the Seattle Seahawks. The Bears lost that day, but Simone’s outfit with Owens’ face all over it became a win.

As she walked onto the Soldier Field with Owens’ face all over her outfit, Simone proved that she takes the role of being an NFL WAG quite seriously. The custom-made outfit by Kelly Daley, featured a white and blue-themed hooded sweatshirt with identical wide-leg cargo pants, paired up with stylish white pumps. But that was not it, she teamed the classy luxury suit with just the perfect accessories! She carried a white mini Chanel bag and had her hair elegantly done in soft curls!

And now, it will be exciting to see what the 11x Olympic medalist comes up with at the Met, or will she be free-balling it once again? What do you think will happen? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Simone Biles and husband Jonathan Owens packed on some sweet sideline PDA ahead of his Sunday, December 8, football game.

Biles, 27, and Owens, 29, shared a sweet kiss ahead of his Chicago Bears away game against the San Francisco 49ers. Ahead of the matchup, Owens met up with Biles on the sidelines, where they each wrapped their arms around one another’s waists and embraced.

Biles also made sure to support her man in style, wearing a pair of navy-and-white sweatpants with “Owens” emblazoned across the waistband. She completed her look with a long-sleeved white T-shirt, matching heeled boots and a small silver handbag.  Biles also wore custom bedazzled sunglasses, which featured a blinged-out “36” in each lens to match Owens’ jersey number.

After the game commenced, Biles went to watch from a private suite — and shared glimpses of her experience via Instagram Story.

“GOOD DAY FOR SOME FOOOOOOTBALL BABYYYYYY,” she wrote on Sunday, sharing a pic of her stadium view.

The two athletes have been together since 2020, first meeting and matching via dating app Raya. At the time, Owens had no clue just how famous Biles was.

“[I] had been on the [dating app Raya] for a couple days and then she pops up. I’m like, ‘Lemme see who this is,’” Owens recalled during a December 2023 appearance on “The Pivot” podcast. “I never really paid attention to gymnastics, so it piqued my curiosity [and I was like], ‘I’ll see what’s up.’”

Owens was playing for the Houston Texans at the time, near Biles’ training facility.

Biles and the NFL safety dated for three years before getting married in April 2023. Since then, she’s been a staple at his football games. Owens also enjoys cheering on Biles, even receiving special permission to miss a few days of Bears training camp to watch her in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

“It is not much motivation you need to do, just because you don’t want to put extra, added pressure on anyone,” Owens exclusively told Us Weekly in July of how they support one another. “I just tell her, ‘Go do your thing, baby.’… As long as she’s there, she’s on the field, give her a kiss and we can go about our way.”

He continued, “You get a different type of focus whenever you just have this one person that you’re focusing on. And I ain’t saying there’s something wrong with being single, but for me, knowing myself, I’ve played a lot better since [meeting Simone], I’ve just been focused and locked in, and you come home, talk about my day and play with the dogs, you know what I mean? That’s just kind of, like, our thing.”

Simone Biles ‘Obsessed’ With Baby Biles While Jonathan Owens Takes New Role To Help Make Her Gymnastics Competition a Success

Last year before the Olympics Simone Biles shared a photo of her niece Ronni dressed in a replica of her aunt’s black leotard from the 2023 Xfinity Gymnastics Championships. The Olympic champion introduced her as the “WCC’s newest elite team member,” and since then the aptly named Baby Biles has become somewhat of a regular at the World Champions Centre as she looks to follow in the footsteps of the GOAT.

Last October, we saw a video of her jumping around enthusiastically, climbing mats, and balancing herself on the trampoline, at Biles’ family-owned gym in Spring, Texas. Previously at the center, she has been spotted wearing a GK leotard as she tried to ace a floor routine like her TT. During the Paris Olympics, Ronni also wore an adorable mini-version of Biles’ red, white, and blue leotard, adorned with silver stars.

So, it is no surprise as the Simone Biles Invitational returned to the World Championships Center this season, Ronni was once again with her gymnast aunt, this time in another cute outfit.

After wrapping up a successful Paris Olympics, the Gold Over America Tour, and supporting her husband Jonathan Owens’ NFL season, Simone Biles has finally come down home, to Houston, for a generous stretch. But, she’s still not retreated into rest mode. Instead, she’s making the most of her time, and her latest actions prove it. After all, she has multiple things in the pipeline like finalizing details on her new house and, of course, hosting the 8th annual Simone Biles Invitational.

Ronnie was present at the Biles Invitational in a World Championship Center-themed tracksuit and her aunt couldn’t stop but gush over her cuteness. Taking to Instagram, she shared a story of the toddler looking at her and added the caption, “Miss girl is soooo cute. ms. ronni biles.” In another story, she also swooned over the fact that “baby sized stuff just looks so much cuter! I’m obsessed.”

Baby Biles seems to follow her aunt wherever she goes, cheering her on from Paris to her homecoming in Houston for the Gold Over America Tour. Hoisted on her mother’s shoulders she yelled “TT go, TT go,” as they made their way to the Toyota Center last October during the Tour. But it’s her early adventures on the mat that have turned a lot of heads.

Last year, the two-year-old was captured in a video by her mother Sammi Biles, as she played around at the facility donning a mini Team USA leotard and a red bow. She made it across different stages from the mat to jumping onto the foam pit cubes, all by herself, drawing encouragement from her mother who said, “See you did it, good job!” Meanwhile, Simone Biles also shared a glimpse of the supporters from her family who had turned up to volunteer at the Invitational which was scheduled from January 31 to February 2.

She shared a small snippet on her IG Story of a row of people including her husband, Jonathan Owens, seated and volunteering at the meet. And guess what? All of her tribe members were donning custom-made Simone Biles Invitational t-shirts. No wonder she captioned the story, “family that volunteers your competition [cry & heart emoji].”

Well, this hardly surprises us as we’ve seen Owens being Simone Biles’ rock all through. From flying to Paris to boost her morale at the Olympics and to surprising her in a Milwaukee hotel during the GOAT Tour, Owens hasn’t been shy in showing his love for Biles.

While Biles cherishes moments with baby Biles, Ronnie, she confirmed plans of having kids of her own in the future. Talking on the Today Show after the Paris Olympics she mentioned, “Me and Jonathan always talk about kids. He would have them, like, yesterday if he could have. Obviously, we both have goals that we want to achieve before we start a family. But yes, that’s definitely in our future.”

Well, motherhood can still be some time away for Biles, but she continues to be an inspiration to the young generation. Recently, a 3-year-old toddler pleasantly surprised Simone Biles in another adorable interaction.

Simone Biles’ new fan is adorable

On the first day of the meet, Biles shared an adorable clip of her 3-year-old fan, Sloan, who was dialing Biles on her toy phone. She was saying, “I have a balance beam for Christmas, Sibone Miles. What? You’ve a balance beam for Christmas. Awww..” The little one looked absolutely obsessed with Biles!

The veteran gymnast even met the toddler and shared the story on her IG.”“My heart [emoji] I got to meet sweet Sloan today!!!! she did her sassy [emoji] pose w/me! so adorable! DAY MADE,” she wrote.

We are sure there will be many such moments to come and more with Ronnie Biles as well. Simone Biles has inspired a legion of young fans and it looks like their love for her isn’t going away anytime soon.
