After leading her team in competition, Simone Biles spearheaded the USA gymnastics side’s celebration after bagging gold medals at the Paris Olympics on Tuesday. 
Following their convincing win over Brazil and Italy, Biles and her squad took to TikTok to show off their new piece of hardware.
Biles posted a video backstage with teammates Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, and Hezly Rivera jokingly ‘biting’ their gold medals with a soundbite to match their actions.
‘TASTE GOLDEN,’ she captioned. She also wrote ‘us’ between a red heart emoji on one end and blue heart emoji on the other.
Aside from Biles, Lee also posted her video dubbed with an iconic Kanye West soundbite from his speech at the 47th Grammy Awards. \
‘Everybody want to know what I would do if I didn’t win,’ Lee and Chiles lip synced in the opening clip before covering the camera and unveiling the team holding their medals.
‘I guess we’ll never know,’ they mouthed in unison before a beat dropped and the video concluded.
With all but one member of the team featured on the celebratory videos, fans took to the comment sections on both clips to ask about Jade Carey’s absence.
‘She went to the bathroom & then we haven’t seen her since,’ Biles responded to one user.
The self-described ‘Redemption Tour,’ the moniker given to a team filled with women who wanted to return to the Games for deeply personal reasons, ended with Biles and the Americans where they have almost always been since she burst onto the scene 11 years ago: on top of the podium, the rest of the world looking up.
