00:00I'm Simone Biles and you're watching Us Weekly.
00:02It's so hard.
00:03I would say the lows, like, okay, cardboard bed.
00:07It's like we're elite athletes trying to compete
00:09on the biggest stage of our life,
00:10the most important meet of our life.
00:12And they're like, hey, try doing it
00:14after you sleep on this cardboard bed.
00:16But the highs is meeting all the other athletes
00:18from around the world, no matter background,
00:21language barrier, you're coming together
00:23and supporting one another.
00:24Yeah, 100%, we're the best athletes in the world.
00:28So I feel like for just one or two weeks,
00:30we deserve the best of the best.
00:32You know, we shouldn't be stressing about
00:33we're sleeping on a cardboard bed.
00:35One, they get wrong how easy this sport is.
00:38They do like a back walkover, back handspring on the beam.
00:40And they're like, I won the Olympics.
00:41No, it's not like that.
00:42You'd be in like level six if you tried that,
00:45not in elite gymnastics.
00:47But I also think they always pin women against each other.
00:50And that is not the case.
00:52Whenever we're on the floor, it is truly a sisterhood.
00:55And we've been training together.
00:57Me and Jordan have known each other since I was 14,
00:59and she was like 11.
01:01That's not the case when we're out there.
01:03It's not catty.
01:04We're not bratty towards one another.
01:05We truly want everybody to do their best.
01:08I feel like the hardest time,
01:09because we are long distance, would be quality time.
01:12But whenever we are together,
01:14we really cherish those moments and make those memories.
01:17And we usually try to go to a nice dinner
01:18and then relax at the house,
01:20because that truly is so special for us.
01:22And we met during COVID.
01:23So that was like, that's all we were doing
01:26was in the house, being around each other.
01:29So I think that's truly special.
01:30But it's also nice that we get to go out
01:32and support one another in their respective sports.
