Simone Biles faces backlash for ‘ludicrous' online brawl with Riley Gaines
Comedian Alex Stein says Olympian gymnast Simone Biles is 'victim shaming' after she slammed women's sports advocate Riley Gaines on X.
'Simone Biles wants to continue to do this as some sort of weird virtue signal because she's probably told to by her Hollywood agent and her NFL husband,' Mr Stein told Sky News Digital Presenter Gabriella Power.
'Anything she says, you can take it with a grain of salt.
'Instead of being a champion for other victims, like herself, she wants to go and attack Riley Gaines.
'She should be lifting women up instead of putting them down to help transgenders in women's sports.
'It's absolutely ludicrous.'
