SUPERSTAR gymnast Simone Biles won her fourth gold medal of the Rio Games with another stunning performance on the women’s floor. But Zac Efron reduced her to giggles. Her five medals tie the most for an American female gymnast in a single Olympics and her four golds tie an Olympic record shared by four others.

Zac surprised the women of the United States Gymnastics team during an interview with Today in a treat arranged by NBC host Hoda Kotb.

She has a life-sized cardboard cutout of him in her room.

You continue to awe those who came before you and inspire those who are training to become the next you. Their meeting culminated with a peck on the cheek, prompting Biles to tweet, “just call me mrs. efron already”.

Turns out Zac saw the segment and tweeted her in July wishing her good luck on the Olympic trials.

Biles, whose participation in this year’s summer games helped the USA earn five medals, told the Today Show’s Hota Kotb, “If you bring him out, I think I’m gonna pass out”.

Mariano, a fellow gymnast representing Brazil at the sports event, took to Instagram on Wednesday, August 17 to post a picture of him planting a kiss on Biles’ cheek. Are you thinking I’m some kind of fool? “I’m not the next Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps”, she said.
