Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles flaunt pilot-inspired leotards as they kick off 30-stop US tour in California
Simone Biles and her fellow Olympic stars have officially kicked off their national tour of the United States.
The 41-time world and Olympic medalist joined her American teammates Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles and Hezly Rivera in Oceanside on Monday night to kick off their lightning tour.
Biles and other gymnastics stars will perform across the country during the 30-arena tour, aptly named the Gold Over America Tour (GOAT), starting with back-to-back shows at Frontwave Arena.
The US Olympic team’s bronze medalists Paul Juda, Brody Malone and Frederick Richard will also shine alongside their gold medal-winning female counterparts.
Biles got her fans excited early in the morning when she showed off her ‘OOTD’, which stands for Outfit Of The Day.

She shared a photo of a hoodie with the word “GOAT” written on it with a gold medal dangling between the letter “O.”
Before taking the stage — or rather the mat — Biles posted a photo of herself, Chiles, Melanie de Jesus dos Santos and Joscelyn Roberson in aviator-themed leotards.
Biles seemed to be enjoying the buildup to the tour after becoming the most decorated American gymnast in Paris. On September 12, she posted a video showing off a new “trick” she learned from Sky Blakely.
“From the world stage to the GOAT stage, this incredible journey continues and I can’t wait for fans to see what we have in store this year,” Biles said in a press release for the event. “I love creating unforgettable memories for our audiences every night on tour.”
The tour kicks off at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside and ends on November 3 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.

But the gymnast can still squeeze in an NFL game.
In preparation for the tour, she had to miss her husband Jonathan Owens’ first two games of the season for the Chicago Bears.
Still, Owens, who married the Olympic legend last year, revealed that Biles will appear at Solider Field as early as this month.
“She’s here on the 29th,” the safety told the Chicago Bears’ YouTube channel. “She has a tour stop here that night at 7 o’clock. It’s perfect. So she can come to the game at noon and then, boom, I can watch her at 7 o’clock. It’s quite a turnaround.”
