    USA gymnastics star Simone Biles was blunt and to the point with her latest two-part Instagram story.

    While riding a public bus around Paris, someone apparently made a less-than-flattering comment about Biles’ hair, to which she took to social media to defend.

    The decorated gymnast posted a video of herself with her hair tied back using a portable fan to cool down followed by a photo with the caption “Gonna hold your hand when I say this. Next time you wanna comment on a black girl’s hair. JUST DON’T.”

    To Biles’ point, it’s currently in the mid-90s in Paris on Tuesday morning with 42% humidity.

    With no additional context, it’s not clear what was said to Biles or by whom, but it clearly didn’t sit right with the 27-year-old Olympian.
