Simone Biles recently reacted to her Netflix documentary series, Simone Biles Rising, earning an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series. The documentary is a four-part series that dives deep into how Biles balances her personal life, mental health journey, and her training.
The first two parts focus on the ace gymnast's mental health journey when she suffered from 'twisties' and pulled back from the Tokyo Olympics. It also displays Biles' memorable comeback. The third and fourth episodes, which were released later, shed light on her preparation and successful run at the Paris Games. The last two episodes were released in October 2024, while the 28-year-old was on her Gold Over America Tour.
Biles' documentary is competing against Chef’s Table, 100 Foot Wave, SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night, and Social Studies at the 77th annual Emmy Awards. After receiving the nomination, the multiple-time Olympic medalist shared the news on her Instagram story and expressed her disbelief.
"STOP IT," the gymnast wrote while adding a few screaming emojis.

The 77th Emmy Awards ceremony will be held on September 14, 2025, at the Peacock Theater in Downtown Los Angeles, California.

Along with her docuseries receiving the nomination for the 77th annual Emmy Awards, Simone Biles earned two nominations for the 2025 ESPY Awards a few days back. She received one nomination alongside Stephen Curry for the best championship performance.
While the basketball star received the nomination for his efforts to help Team USA win its fifth Olympic gold in the sport, Biles achieved it for her all-around event title at the French capital. She posted a stunning 59.131 points to outperform Brazil's Rebeca Andrade and fellow gymnast Suni Lee, who posted 57.932 and 56.465, respectively.
Biles and Curry are joined by Northern Irish professional golfer Rory McIlroy and Canadian-American baseball first baseman Freddie Freeman, making the gymnast the only woman to earn the nomination in the category.
Biles was also nominated for Best Athlete in Women's Sports alongside Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, Gabby Thomas, and A'ja Wilson. The 2025 ESPY Awards winners will be announced during a ceremony scheduled for Wednesday, July 16, at the prestigious Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
