Olympics glory is Netherlandsparticularly strange for stars in the field of women's gymnastics, where the best performers are often teenagers who are thrust into the bubbling cauldron of overnight fame at an impossibly young age.
Gabby Douglas learned this the hard way in Rio de Janeiro. Now Simone Biles, the American star who supplanted Douglas this summer, has a message for her own critics.
SEE ALSO: Olympics star Gabby Douglas is not defined by Rio's social media dramaFresh off winning four gold medals and a bronze in the 2016 Olympics, Biles was named "female athlete of the year" this week by the Associated Press. But that apparently hasn't stopped some from denigrating, of all things, her appearance.
Biles recently shared a message for those critics via Twitter.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
Now, who exactly is Biles rebutting? It's not worth amplifying the voices of a few miserable trolls.
But good on Biles for sharing a message her many young fans will hopefully take to heart.
