Simone Biles Has Inspired All These Celebrities With Her Gold Win In Gymnastics

Simone Biles won gold in gymnastics for the women’s individual all-around event on Thursday, making her the best gymnast in the world.

The US gymnast drew quite a response for her high flying antics, scoring 15.933 on floor – the highest of the day on any apparatus – and 62.198 overall, putting her 2 points in front of Aly Raisman, who won silver.

Celebs have been quick to react online to the 19-year-old’s amazing performance, and it looks like Zac Efron has particularly taken a shine to her! He posted these tweets to cheer her on before the event:
