Fans Demand the Same Thing After Simone Biles' Confession

In case you didn't know, Simone Biles has a sassy side, too. She usually gives herself a bit more liberty -- in moderation, of course -- on the social media platform Threads, which is pretty much Meta's version of X (formerly Twitter).
Users are usually a tad more tolerant on this platform in terms of exchanging views and engaging in colorful conversations. Biles herself knows how it goes on the streets of Threads, which is why she, too, lets loose every now and again.
A perfect example of the same was a post she published on Saturday, September 1, wherein the 27-year-old got brutally honest about some of her opinions. Well, somewhat.
"I got a couple hot takes but I don’t think y’all will like them lmaooo 👀" she wrote.
Biles, an 11-time Olympic medalist who bagged four of them in the recently concluded Paris Olympics, merely teased her followers without divulging any of these "hot takes." As previously mentioned, the highly-regarded gymnast still makes sure to practice restraint on Threads.

Because of her statement, however, the fans could not help but demand to hear what Biles was referring to here.
"Spill Simone," said a supporter.
"Girl, this is Threads. Have you seen us lately?" a comment read.
"You can’t take us to a party and not let us in the bounce house. That’s what you just did. We want the bounce house," a fan wrote.
"Simone, this is Threads. We live for the ADHD hot takes," another said.
"Your voice is a powerful one. I wish you had a hot take on our community that is poisoned. Maybe we’d be heard," reacted a user.
"This is your internet, your highness. We simply log into it," read a reaction.
Simone did not bite, though, as she chose to hold her tongue. Better luck next time, I guess?
