*Before clinching gold in the women’s artistic gymnastics all-around final on August 1 at the 2024 Paris Games, Simone Biles was honored with a heartfelt tribute from Beyoncé.
The singer narrated a video documenting Biles’ 2024 Olympic journey for NBC.
“Let’s talk about power because, really, that’s what this story is about,” says Beyoncé of Biles in the footage.
“Physical power, its beauty, its wonder, the way it never stops amazing you. Then there’s spiritual power, the kind that really matters,” she continues.
“The power you can’t see, only sense. The power you need in those moments when life goes a little sideways on you.”
Queen Bey goes on to note that “only a select few know what it feels like to get to the top and stay there and somehow keep getting better.”
The superstar added, “Simone Biles inspires me, and I’m pretty sure she inspires you, too. Such confidence in her strength, such beauty in her power, such a great lesson in her story.”

Simone Biles is the first woman to win multiple individual all-around titles since Věra Čáslavská in 1968. Her recent gold is her first individual win since the 2016 Rio Games and solidifies her status as the most decorated American gymnast ever, surpassing Shannon Miller’s record with nine total Olympic medals.
