Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Simone responded to a fan who reshared the video and called out the judges for seemingly messing up. She was not upset in the least.

“Honestly not a big deal for me,” she wrote. “Rebeca had a better floor anyways.”

She continued, writing, “Upsetting how it wasn’t processed but I’m not mad at the results.”

The gymnast did referred to Rebeca as a “Queen” and bowed down to her on the podium at the Games.

While Simone isn’t upset for herself, she did loudly champion her teammate Jordan Chiles, who was stripped of a bronze medal in the same competition.

“BUT JUSTICE FOR JORDAN 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️,” she declared. “ya hear me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
