Anyway, even though her medals and wild success are probably going to be what she remembers from these Olympics, something else incredible happened.

But Biles is also a 19-year-old, who, when not tumbling in the air, enjoys the same pop culture as many other teenagers.
Judging by the adorable reaction of Biles and her gymnastics teammates, they were pretty pleased when Efron came to meet them.
“My knees are hurting and I didn’t even guard him on that play”, Collins said. You realize that’s a little unusual?
“I’m completely humbled that y’all think I’m an inspiration”, she told them.
“And he has a good body…” “We joke that we’re like global boyfriend and girlfriend because we see each other at these worldwide meets, so I think that’s really cool”.
Before surprising the gymnasts, Efron and broadcaster Hoda Kotb watched Biles compete in the floor routine.
“So phenomenal a skill’s named after her”.
Biles was not the only one making amends for near misses and past disappointments on the final day of competition.
‘Sometimes I used to.used to kiss him on the cheek, ‘ she told Stephanie Gosk slightly sheepishly.
If not for Biles’ for-the-ages performances, fellow American gymnast Aly Raisman would have scooped up the gold on the floor, instead Raisman added a silver to her total collection of three from these Games.
Their meeting saw Zac plant a smacker on the Olympian’s cheek, but hey, Zef, looks like she might be taken. Two of Lochte’s teammates were removed from their plane to the US on Wednesday as authorities continue their investigation of the case.
One fan asked whether they prefer Efron or gold medals.
While in Miami in March shooting the Baywatch reboot, Efron was approached by a young fan who wanted to take a video.

American Danell Leyva matched Biles and Raisman with a pair of medals of his own, taking silver on both the parallel bars and high bar.
