Simone Biles Is Honored With Her Own GOAT Emoji On Twitter

Simone Biles is the most decorated gymnast of all time heading into the Tokyo Olympics, with a total of 25 World Championship medals (19 of which are gold), four Olympic golds, one Olympic bronze, and a record seven all-around titles at the US Championships. She is undeniably the Greatest Of All Time, which makes her new Twitter emoji all the more appropriate.

Twitter revealed the new emoji for #SimoneBiles or #Simone earlier this week: a goat executing a split jump while wearing a red leotard and a gold medal. The GOAT deservingly deserves her own emoji!

In 2019, Biles launched Goldie, a rhinestone logo in the shape of a goat that became an instant hit. Goldie competed in two additional events at the 2021 U.S. Gymnastics Championships, where she set a new record by winning her seventh championship. She told Marie Claire about the amazing thought behind the leotards thereafter.

"The plan was to retaliate against the detractors." "I didn't think it was fair that they could say whatever they wanted, but then it wasn't fair if I said something," Biles stated. "'I swear, if she put a goat on her leo, blah, blah, blah.", nothing Then I thought to myself, 'Oh, that's actually a fantastic idea.' 

"I really hope that kids seeing this don't feel embarrassed of being brilliant at whatever they do," she added. "And that's my issue: when people harp on other individuals who are talented in some way. And it's like, everyone can tell you're excellent, but once you admit it, it's no longer hip. And I want them to understand that it's fine to admit that you're excellent, if not great, at something." Or, in Biles' case, the greatest of all time at whatever!
