Jason Kelce thought Simone Biles would FAIL at the Olympics – while Travis praises her for Paris glory: ‘America is so proud’
Jason Kelce admits Simone Biles proved him wrong at the Olympic Games this summer after writing off the USA gymnast due to her age.
Biles enjoyed a phenomenal return to the Olympic stage in Paris three years after withdrawing from several events in Tokyo to focus on her mental health.
This time around the 27-year-old walked away with three gold medals and one silver; a return which cemented her as the most decorated American gymnast of all time with a total of 41 medals from the Olympics (11) and World Championship (30).
However, not everyone was convinced she would succeed in the French capital.
On the first episode of a new series of his and brother Travis’ New Heights podcast, Jason – who was out in Paris this summer with wife Kylie – revealed he had doubts over Biles’ chances at the Olympics given she is above the age typically considered a gymnasts’ peak.
‘We watched every girl go and do the floor routine and Simone Biles was the last person,’ Kelce recalled. ‘And I’m like, “You know, she’s getting older, we’ll see how she looks.”‘
Travis expressed disbelief that his brother thought Biles would fail in Paris, but Jason continued: ‘I did think that! If you go look at the age of gymnasts, they’re usually not in their mid 20s to late 20s. They’re usually young. They usually don’t age and sustain well later.’
His Kansas City Chiefs-star sibling then pointed out that Simone can be considered an ‘anomaly’ in this sense – something he now fully agrees with.
‘You would be right, she is the anomaly because she jumped higher than everybody and it wasn’t even close,’ Jason conceded.
While the former Philadelphia Eagles center doubted her, both Kelce brothers were chuffed for Biles after she banished the demons of Tokyo and captured Olympic glory once again.
Travis added: ‘It’s such a feel-good story knowing the past and everything that she’s had to go through, just to feel confident in getting back up there and medaling. It’s the best man, I’m so happy for her.
‘And… America’s so proud of her man.’
With the dust now settled on the Olympics, Biles recently admitted she was looking forward to wrapping up the gymnastics competition and felt relieved after her last event.
The seven-time gold medalist opened up on the nerves she felt when stepping onto the mat, which proved a stressful experience at times.
‘Coming out, it’s just like a breath of fresh air. I feel so much better now that it’s over because you know how stressful it is,’ she told Olympics.com.
‘So I just couldn’t wait to be done,’ Biles continued. ‘But I was still trying to cherish every single moment along the way.’

Congratulations to Zendaya and Tom Holland as Zendaya announced that she’s pregnant through the scan result she posted as she reveals the baby’s gender. The two announced they would be holding a …. see more
Zendaya has appeared to debunk pregnancy rumors which went viral on social media.
The “Spider-Man: No Way Home” actor posted an Instagram Story on June 15, which said, “See now, this is why I stay off Twitter… Just making stuff up for no reason… weekly.”
It followed rumors that Zendaya was pregnant spreading on Twitter, where a TikTok falsely claiming she’d announced a pregnancy began to circulate. Users appeared to believe the hoax, despite it originally being posted as part of a viral TikTok prank called the “Krissed” trend, where people make false claims about celebrities to bait people into watching a clip of Kris Jenner dancing to “Lady Marmalade.”
On June 13, a user called Ryan Roberts posted a TikTok showing a picture of an ultrasound that looked like a screenshot from Instagram, with Zendaya’s Instagram handle above it.
On Zendaya’s Instagram profile, there is no picture that matches the screenshot in the TikTok.
The 12-second video then cut to a 2011 clip of Kris Jenner dancing and lipsyncing to the “Moulin Rouge” song, with an on-screen caption reading, “You just got Krissed.”
The word “krissed” was used as a synonym for pranked in the video caption, which went on to say, “Send this to your friends to absolutely #kris them.”
Similar videos have gone viral over the past week, and 11,000 TikToks have been posted on the platform with the hashtag “#krissed,” as part of the prank.
Commenters under the original TikTok largely recognized that the pregnancy claims weren’t true, with top comments saying, “I didn’t fall for this one,” and “Nope I was actually prepared this time.”
The TikTok user who posted the video did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.
On Twitter, users appeared to believe the pregnancy was real
Shortly after the TikTok was posted, a rumor that Zendaya was pregnant began to spread on Twitter.
The topic “Zendaya pregnant,” was trending on the platform on June 15, with some people suggesting they were shocked or sad to hear the news, and top liked tweets under the hashtag, “#ZendayaPregnant” have hundreds of thousands of likes each on the platform.
Some users recognized that the rumors originated from the “Krissed” trend and were part of a prank, urging users not to believe the claims.
Zendaya’s personal life has frequently been the topic of speculation on social media
Zendaya and her boyfriend Tom Holland have tried to keep their relationship out of the public eye as much as possible. However, last year, Holland told People that he wanted to “take a break and focus on starting a family.”
He added: “I love kids. I can’t wait to be a dad — I can wait and I will, but I can’t wait!”
In February, Holland also shut down reports that he had purchased a home in London, England with Zendaya.
The two Marvel stars were first linked after starring in the “Spider-Man” Marvel Cinematic Universe trilogy together. Last year, dating rumors surfaced after they were photographed kissing in a car.
Holland later told GQ that he and Zendaya felt “robbed” of their privacy by the photograph.
“One of the downsides of our fame is that privacy isn’t really in our control anymore, and a moment that you think is between two people that love each other very much is now a moment that is shared with the entire world,” Holland said.
Representatives for Zendaya did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment
