See Taylor Swift’s Reaction to Simone Biles’ “Ready For It” Routine

The GOATs are supporting the GOATs. Taylor Swift may be in the middle of her record-breaking Eras Tour, but she took the time to celebrate Simone Biles’ floor routine, which the athlete performed at the U.S. Gymnastics Trials ahead of the Paris Olympics. Biles chose Swift’s song “…Ready For It?” for the routine, and the singer was definitely a fan. (And no, that doesn’t mean it’s a Reputation Easter Egg.)

On June 28, the NBC Olympics & Paralympics account tweeted a video of Biles’ impressive floor routine, with the caption: “…Ready for this?” SIMONE BILES’ FLOOR ROUTINE.”

The next day, Swift responded to the video: “I’ve watched this so many times and I’m still not ready. She’s I’m ready for this 👏👏👏🥇🇺🇸❤️.” This month, Biles will travel to Paris as part of the U.S. gymnastics team.

This isn’t the first time Swift and Biles have encouraged each other. In August 2021, Swift previously posted a video to celebrate Biles after the gymnast withdrew from the gymnastics final at the Tokyo Olympics.

The video, which featured Swift’s song “This Is Me Trying,” applauded Biles’ decision to prioritize her mental health. “What do we expect from our heroes? What do we expect from them? What do we need from them? What happens when they surprise us? When you have the world’s attention, everything you do takes on a greater meaning. It can be a heavy burden,” Swift said in the video.

“This could be an opportunity to change everything. Throughout the past week, his voice has been as important as his talents. Her honesty as beautiful as the perfection that has long been her signature,” Swift continued. “But don’t you see, that’s always the case. She is perfectly human. And that’s what makes it so easy to call her a hero.

At the time, Biles responded to the video: “I’m crying 🥺🤍 how special.” I love you @taylorswift13. Swift gave Biles a heartfelt response: “I cried watching YOU. I feel so lucky to have been able to watch you all these years, but this week has been a lesson in emotional intelligence and resilience. We all learned from you. THANKS.”
