Thanks to her sudden fame, Biles landed a spot on the popular Dancing with the Stars. However, the judges’ lack of enthusiasm did not sit well with Biles. Over and over, she was told her routines lacked emotion. After one such comment, the host asked Biles why none of the more positive comments she received elicited a smile. Biles responded by saying, “Smiling doesn’t win you gold medals.” The oh snap! comeback soon went viral, with fans applauding Biles’ standing up to negative feedback.
