The Olympic gymnast shared a TikTok video in which she claimed a club in Paris tried to charge her a whopping $26,000 for a single bottle of champagne after the Olympics closing ceremony.

Ooh la, la, c'est cher!

US Olympic gymnast Simon Biles, who medaled four times at the 2024 Paris Summer Games, was gobsmacked after a club in Paris tried to get her to spend the U.S. equivalent of $26,000 for a bottle of champagne.


The Comeback of the Year champ went to a nightclub following the Olympics closing ceremony, where she was part of the ceremonial passing of the Olympic flag, to celebrate.

Biles posted a GRWM—or, Get Ready With Me—TikTok video in which she shared her thoughts on a variety of topics, including the exorbitant price the club wanted charged for the bougie bubbly.

The incident was the first tea spilled.

"We had Closing Ceremonies at the Olympics. I went, and after that, we went out," she began while stippling the foundation makeup on her face.

She continued:

"You guys, this club tried to charge me $26,000 for a bottle of champagne."
"Like, are you insane?"
"Obviously, I didn't buy it. But why would you even try and play me like that? That's wild."

Here's the clip.

Although she didn't identify the name of the establishment where a bottle of champagne could cost as much as a 2024 Subaru Crosstrek, online sleuths surmised Biles may have attended Paris' premiere posh club, L'arc, where a table can cost up to €6,000, or USD 6663.90 for a group of more than five people.

Biles is set to embark on the Athleta-presented Gold Over America Tour, a gymnastics-themed entertainment touring show intended to inspire the next generation of female athletes.

Biles launched the tour, with the apt acronym, GOAT, in 2019.

The all-women company of America's best gymnasts this year includes Biles, Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles, Hezly Rivera, Paul Juda, Brody Malone, Fred Richard, Joscelyn Roberson, Shane Wiskus, and Yul Moldauer.

According to their website, the star athletes will perform in a "pop concert-style spectacle" and travel to 30 arenas nationwide.

Tickets are, presumably, not expected to cost an arm and a leg.

Nevada Police Official Who Taught Policing Classes Fired After He's Caught On Video Calling Cop Gay Slur During Traffic Stop

One of Nevada's top cops—who provided training for law enforcement across the state—gave a master class in how not to act during a traffic stop when he was pulled over for distracted driving in a state vehicle on August 18.

Chief investigator for the office of Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford, William Scott Jr.—a retired Las Vegas Metro Police Department (LVMPD) captain—did almost everything a person shouldn't do: arguing, name dropping, threatening retaliation, getting out of his vehicle to confront the traffic officer, and verbally berating and mocking the officer while using a homophobic slur.

Stephen Miller's Cousin Reveals Family Disowned Him After He Became The 'Face Of Evil' In Resurfaced Viral Post

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller's cousin, Alisa Kasmer, publicly disowned him in a post she shared over the summer that has resurfaced as President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown—which Miller orchestrated—accelerates.

Kasmer, Miller’s cousin on his father’s side, reminisced about their childhood, describing him as an “awkward, funny, needy middle child who loved to chase attention” but was “always the sweetest with the littlest family members.” She once regarded him as “young, conservative, maybe misguided, but lovable and harmless.”

AOC Hilariously Reacts After Fox News Makes Stephen Miller Watch Her Brutal Takedown Of Him

After New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller during an Instagram livesteam, Fox News played the video for Miller, only for Ocasio-Cortez to laugh at the awkwardness of it all in her follow-up response.

During her livestream, Ocasio-Cortez said “one of the best ways that you can dismantle a movement of insecure men is by making fun of them," urging her followers to mock MAGA men. She then called Miller "a clown" and suggested he—the architect of President Donald Trump's immigration policies—takes out his anger on others because he's "like, 4 feet 10 inches."
