Is that f****** normal?<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I get prices these days have gone up, but if that&#8217;s the new norm, y&#8217;all can have it.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Y&#8217;all will never see me at another event. I&#8217;m going to sit my a** right here where it&#8217;s free. I&#8217;ve been kind of spiralling since then.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nFans in the comments admitting their &#8220;jaw dropped at that number&#8221;, while others suggested Simone &#8211; who didn&#8217;t specify which event outfit and style sparked the huge cost &#8211; doesn&#8217;t need a stylist and should just pick out her own looks.<\/p>\n<p>\nHowever, she replied: &#8220;So so sweet. I would love to show up in my Oh Polly, House of CB, Club L London dress trusstttt!<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;BUT the internet will disagree with you. They be on my a** tearing me apart. (sic)&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe superstar gymnast has been in the spotlight since she was teenager after wining a gold medal at the 2013 World Gymnastics Championships in Belgium when she was just 16 and she went on to become the most decorated gymnast in history &#8211; but Simone is adamant her success became a burden and she needed professional help to cope.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe recently told Harper&#8217;s Bazaar Spain: &#8220;Yes [success became a burden]. Achieving success so young was very difficult. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Suddenly everyone is watching you, telling you how to act, how to speak. I was afraid of disappointing them. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;That&#8217;s why I started going to therapy. I needed to learn how to handle the pressure, how to remain true to myself. It was a crucial decision: taking care of my mind saved me as an athlete and as a person &#8230; <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I still go to therapy every week. It keeps me grounded and helps me process everything that&#8217;s happening in my life and in the world. It&#8217;s my safe haven, the place where I learn to be kind to myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/simone-biles-gobsmacked-after-eyewatering-charge-stylist-team-1441475.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>29 April 2026 Simone Biles wants to stay inside &#8220;where it&#8217;s free&#8221; after spending $23,000 on a stylist, hair and makeup team.
