Star power as Biles returns to Olympic gymnastics

US gymnast Simone Biles sparkled in her return to Olympic competition on the second day of the Paris Games- and there were stars among the spectators too.

Biles is the most decorated athlete in the history of gymnastics.

Among the high-profile fans were Hollywood’s Tom Cruise and Oscar-winning actor Jessica Chastain sitting under the roof of the packed arena on Sunday.

Snoop Dogg had front-row seats while Greta Gerwig, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, Nick Jonas and Anna Wintour also attended Biles’ competition.

Snoop Dogg was in a partying mood and danced during the team’s presentations. Cruise was mobbed by fans and agreed to selfies, shaking a few hands.

Biles competed in the team’s qualifying alongside US teammates Jordan Chiles, Hezly Rivera, Sunisa Lee and ***** Carey.

It was her first competitive appearance in Paris, where she will try to add to her already impressive tally of seven Olympic medals.

Athletes across the Olympic spectrum have said they want to make it a point to catch the gymnast in what could be the final competition of her unparalleled career.

Among them: LeBron James and the US men’s basketball team, which was busy Sunday with Olympic qualifying.
