Simone Biles, who took home four gold medals in the Rio Olympics, has been reporting for Inside Edition as a special Super Bowl correspondent in her hometown of Houston.
At Monday’s media night at Minute Maid Park, all eyes were on Biles.
She took selfies with fans, gave a shout out to the troops and stopped some dead in their tracks who exclaimed, “Oh my God, she is beautiful!”
Even police and players stopped for photos with Biles, as well as the New England Patriots mascot.
