Simone Biles has recalled the extortionate price she says a Paris nightclub tried to charge her for a bottle of champagne as she celebrated her Olympics success.

The Team USA athlete, who won three gold and one silver medal competing in gymnastics, accused an unnamed venue of trying to "play" her on a night out in the capital after the Closing Ceremony.

"Obviously I didn't buy it. But why would you even try to play me like that? Like, that's wild," Biles said in a TikTok video while applying makeup.
