Simone Biles responded to critics about her hair just hours before winning her 8th Olympic medal.

Even though Simone Biles is the most decorated U.S. Olympic gymnast with over 35 medals and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, some people still criticize her.

One person complained, “Simone Biles’ hair never looks right. Everyone else on the team looks put together, but she looks like she just rolled out of bed.”

Before the women’s gymnastics team finals, Simone Biles, 27, shared a message for her critics on her Instagram Story.

“Don’t comment on my hair,” Simone Biles wrote in a video she posted. “It was done, but the bus had no AC and it was super hot. Plus, the ride was 45 minutes.”

In another Instagram Story, she shared a selfie and said, “Gonna hold your hand when I say this

Many women usually wear their hair in a slicked-back ponytail or bun, but Simone Biles has been wearing a looser style.

The rules say USA gymnasts must be “well groomed” and keep their hair “secured away from the face” so it doesn’t block their view of the equipment.

Despite the rules, many people on social media have criticized Simone Biles’ hairstyle.

Comments include:

“Simone Biles’s hair stylist should be fired.”
“Did Simone Biles purposely not do her hair? Every other gymnast’s hair is neatly done, but hers is messy. It almost seems on purpose… wtf?”
“I know Simone Biles talked about hair comments in her documentary, but she needs someone else to do her hair, not just her mom.”
“Simone Biles is flawless, but her hair isn’t.”
I don’t see anything wrong with Simone’s hair. She’s following the rules, so she should be able to wear it however she wants. People need to leave her alone!

WATCH Travis Kelce Throws Helmet, Has Altercation With Andy Reid

Travis Kelce is back in the headlines, but this time, it is for his football-playing exploits instead of the constant reIationship drama between him and Taylor Swift that has been ever-present throughout the last half of the Kansas City Chiefs NFL season.

As the year came to a close, the Chiefs suffered a painful 20-14 Ioss to the Las Vegas Raiders, which clearly set Kelce into a tirade.

Following a game in which Kelce’s efforts as a tight end were impactful but not up to his standards as the elite player that he has become, he was seen throwing his heImet in the first quarter and speaking his mind to head coach Andy Reid on the sideline after the loss.

This tension flared in full sight of cameras as NFL fans all across the country witnessed the turmoil.

The helmet throw, which is not typically the most uncommon sight in pro football, was a shocking move as Kelce launched his protective headwear at the team’s water cooler. That didn’t seem to get all the anger out, however, as a staff member was denied by Kelce when trying to return the helmet to the disgruntIed superstar.

After the game, a quick discussion that appeared to be a bit heated sparked up between Kelce and Head Coach Andy Reid in which the two bumped each other.

That can be seen in the video beIow, which was posted to X by NFL on CBS.

Andy Reid, for his part, seems over the altercation and ready to move on to next week’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals on New Year’s Eve. He told reporters after the game, Yeah, listen, I mean, he went back in and did a nice job. So, things happen, emotional game. Trav’s emotional and sometimes my red hair gets to me a little bit, but it all works out.

Kelce has yet to comment on the matter, and with Reid being over it so quickly it wouldn’t be surprising if we never got a peep out of the star tight end about this.

Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes answered question after the game about the state of the team and the plan for the season going forward as the group Iooks to secure a playoff spot.

Mahomes said, They played better than us today, and they were the team that deserved to win. All you can do is move on to the next day, and the next game…I still believe that we can go do what we want to do, it’s just a matter of correcting our mistakes as quickly as possible.
