Olympics great Simone Biles shared details of the shocking amount that a nightclub tried to charge her for a bottle of champagne after Paris 2024.

Team USA legend Biles cemented herself as one of the greatest athletes of all time at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games after taking home three gold medals and one silver, becoming the oldest Olympic all-around champion at age 27.

Following her success in Paris, Biles became the most successful US gymnast of all time with an astonishing total of 11 Olympic medals and, of course, she wanted to celebrate her achievements in the famous nightclubs of Paris.

However, the Olympian later revealed that her time sampling Paris' nightlife wasn't as positive as she had hoped, as one club tried to charge her a breathtaking amount for a bottle of champagne after the Olympic closing ceremony.

Speaking in a TikTok, Biles revealed that following the closing ceremony, she and her teammates went to a club that tried to massively overcharge the Olympic star.

"After that [closing ceremonies] we went out," the American recalled. "You guys, this club tried to charge me $26,000 for a bottle of champagne. Like are you insane?"

"But why would you even try to play me like that? That’s wild," she added.

Elsewhere in the video, the 27-year-old spoke candidly about the struggles of life in the public eye.

"I don’t know sometimes, the attention, I’d rather not have it," Simone admitted.

"I rather just be as normal as possible, I don’t know."

This perhaps is part of the reason why it seems almost certain that Paris 2024 will remain the final Olympic Games that Biles competes in.

Speaking in an interview with Sports Illustrated, the gymnast admitted that she feels that she has done all that she needs to do in the sport and will no focus on her personal life.

“Because I’ve accomplished so much, there’s almost nothing left to do, rather than to just be snobby and to try again, and for what?” she confessed.

“I’m at a point in my career where I’m humble enough to know when to be done.”

“If you go back, you’ll be greedy. Those are the consequences,” Biles added.

“But that’s also your decision to decide. What sacrifices would be made if I go back now? When you’re younger, it’s like, prom, college. Now it’s like, starting a family, being away from my husband. What’s really worth it?”
