U.S. Women’s Gymnastics Olympic Team Celebrate Gold Medals With Cheeky Throwback Kanye West Grammy Speech


U.S. women's gymnastics team celebrated their team gold medal on Tuesday (July 30) with a TikTok video referencing Kanye West' 2005 Grammy speech.

It sounded good too, as team members Simone Biles, Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles, Sunisa Lee and Hezly Rivera spent much of the day luxuriating in the golden glow of the champion’s circle with some of their favorite tunes. The party moved to Lee’s TikTok soon afterwards, where the fantastic five flexed by miming along to Kanye West’s infamous 2005 Grammy Awards speech for his best rap album-winning opus, The College Dropout. There was also another clip in which Lee and Chiles revisited one of their favorite celebration jams by doing coordinated choreo to Megan Thee Stallion’s “Cognac Queen” in a callback to an earlier video in which they danced to the song after getting through qualifiers.
