Video: Megan Thee Stallion Honors Simone Biles at 2024 MTV VMAs After Paris Olympics

The MTV Video Music Awards are typically about celebrating the most successful recording artists going. This year's installment made sure to highlight a GOAT from a different arena.

Host Megan Thee Stallion called attention to a fellow Texan, gymnast Simone Biles, during her opening monologue. The rapper was dressed in an outfit inspired by the United States' leotards from the 2024 Summer Olympics.

She added that, "I deserve a gold medal for being a bad b---h."

Biles was already regarded among the greatest gymnasts ever before she made the trip to Paris. At this year's Summer Games, she added to her legacy by winning the individual all-around and vault competitions while helping the U.S. claim gold in the team event.

Megan Thee Stallion's shout-out is a testament to Biles' crossover success and her status as American athletic royalty.
