Taylor Swift proves every day that she is a girl’s girl. The pop star has become a role model for young girls, shaping them to empower women all around. Simone Biles, the greatest gymnast of all time, who has made a comeback after a lengthy and taxing battle with mental health issues last year, has recently given Taylor Swift a huge nod. And the songstress seems to have embraced the tribute with open arms, with a heartwarming response.

Simone Biles performed a Taylor Swift-themed floor routine at the U.S. Olympic gymnastics trials in Minneapolis, Minn. As she started her routine, Biles used a beat from the pop star’s song ‘…Ready For It?’ from the 2017 album ‘Reputation’. NBC Olympics & Paralympics shared the clip of Biles’ performance on X. This caught the attention of the artist who responded with a caption saying, “Watched this so many times and still unready. She’s ready for it tho”.
