Simone Biles Reveals Her Celebrity Couple Name With Zac Efron

Simone Biles Reveals Her Celebrity Couple Name With Zac Efron

Simone Biles may be taking a much-needed break from gymnastics, but that doesn’t mean she’s disappeared from the public eye. Showing up to present an award at the VMAs and sitting front row at NYFW are just two of the ways the medal-winner has been finding herself rubbing elbows with celebs and surely enjoying every moment of it. But there’s still one star that’s holding Simone’s attention — her celeb crush, Zac Efron.


Though 19-year-old Simone is currently dating Brazilian gymnast Arthur Nory Mariano, it was back to the topic of Zac when the Olympian took Vogue on a tour of her parent’s gym in Texas for their latest 73 Questions feature.

When asked about her ideal date, Simone replied with, “I think breakfast on the beach.” The beach sounds about right, but breakfast? That’s interesting. Then when asked about her crush, Zac Efron, Simone was tasked with coming up with a “Brangelina” type name. “Zimone” was the name she opted for with a smile and giggle. Too cute.
