Former U.S. first lady Michelle Obama on Tuesday praised the “sportsmanship” of gymnasts Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles for bowing down to Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade after she beat the Americans in the women’s floor exercise at the Paris Olympics.
Biles and Chiles, who won silver and bronze respectively in the event, playfully honored Andrade, who has come back from three ACL tears and has now won six Olympic medals in her career.
But Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey on Monday outrageously called the light moment “disgusting,” prompting severe backlash from fans.
