Simone Biles was shocked when she saw the price of a bottle of champagne at a Paris club. \’Isn’t that crazy?\’
American gymnast and Olympic champion Simone Biles made her country proud again at the Paris Olympics. The 27-year-old won three gold medals and one silver at the competition, bringing her total to 11 Olympic medals in her career so far.
But aside from the gymnastics competition, Simone also enjoyed a little party in Paris to celebrate her success. After the closing ceremony, she went to a nightclub with friends and ordered a bottle of wine, and was totally surprised when the club announced the price of the bottle: $26,000. Speaking about the incident, in which Simone filmed herself getting her makeup done on TikTok, she said: “We went out [after the closing ceremony], and guys, this club tried to charge me $26,000 for a bottle of champagne.” “Are you stupid?”
Simone was shocked when she heard the price of the champagne and said, “Of course I didn’t buy it.” She said, “But why did you try so hard to play with me?” It’s crazy. »
Later in the video, she explains that the acclaim in sports could be the reason people try to take advantage of it. “I don’t know, I get attention, but I’d rather not get attention,” Simone said. “I want to be as normal as possible, but I don’t know. »

People in the comments section followed Simone’s lead, expressing disbelief at the price of a bottle of champagne. No matter how fancy and luxurious the Parisian club was, nothing can justify a $26,000 price tag for a bottle of champagne. “$26k is nuts,” one user wrote, while another added, “$26k??” That’s insane!\”
