That’s today’s theme after three Black women swept the medals for the Floor Exercise at the Olympics. To make things all the more special, all three competed throughout the competition to tracks by Beyoncé.

Rebeca Andrade, Simone Biles, and Jordan Chiles made history in Paris on Monday after winning the gold, silver, and bronze at the 2024 Olympic Games.

Before narrowly beating Biles and claiming the women’s floor title, Rebeca Andrade tumbled and twirled to several songs including King Bey’s “End Of Time.”

On Monday, she competed with a non-King Bey mashup but stunned all the same.

 

“Today has been absolutely wild… I’ve been out on that floor so many times competing, so obviously exhaustion and all of that sets in, but we still had to go out and compete one more time today,” PEOPLEreports she said at a press conference afterward. “And it’s such an honor to compete with these girls on both the beam and on the floor.”

“At the end of the day, whoever medaled, medaled, and that’s what’s so exciting, because you just never know with gymnastics,” she added. “I’m not very upset or anything about my performance at the Olympics. I’m actually very happy, proud and even more excited that it’s over, the stress of it.”

As for Jordan Chiles, a Beyoncé super stan who often wears looks modeled after Bey, competed throughout the Olympics to “Black Parade”, “My House”, “Cuff It”, “Energy” and lastly, “Lose My Breath.”
