Biles made history this week at the Rio Olympics, becoming the first American female gymnast to win four gold medals in a single Olympic Games.

The 19-year-old Biles wrapped up 10 days of incredible gymnastics with her trademark dominant display of acrobatics and tumbling on the floor in the Rio Olympic Arena.
Adria is too a gymnast, just like her big sis; could Adria Biles go to the Olympics?

Anyway, even though her medals and wild success are probably going to be what she remembers from these Olympics, something else awesome happened.
Now, Biles might have to add another teammate to her hit list.
The 1.45m (4ft 9in) gymnast got the crowd behind her with her Samba routine to lead a U.S. 1-2 ahead of Aly Raisman. But Zac Efron reduced her to giggles.
“If you had asked me a few months ago I would have definitely said I was done and I think Mihai Brestyan [her coach] would have said the same thing”. “I thought I was in the best shape of my life in 2012 and it’s even better here, so maybe I just get better with age”, she continued.
Biles also gushed about Efron to Ellen, who provided her with a leotard with Efron’s face on the front. Responding to a question about whether she took a nap after the floor competition, Aly Raisman said she didn’t have a chance to rest, and the crew wouldn’t let her, because they were trying to keep Zac Efron’s presence a surprise.
Simone Biles’ dream has come true- next to winning a gold medal that is.

“In the older days, you would watch a whole Olympic Games and no gymnast would smile”. Whether it was swimmer Michael Phelps surpassing all Olympians-modern and ancient-in medals won or sprinter Allyson Felix becoming the most decorated USA woman in track and field, it has been an Olympics for the books.
