Give Simone Biles another gold medal for the side-eye she gave Aly Raisman when she brought up Zac Efron

We know Simone Biles is a huge fan of Zac Efron, whose face is plastered all over a leotard she got from Ellen DeGeneres. And conversely, we know Zac Efron is a huge fan of Biles and the U.S. women’s gymnastics -- he traveled to Rio on Tuesday to personally meet them, and they were understandably ecstatic. We know all of them have a pizza party in mind when the Olympics are all said and done.

But here’s a thing we didn’t truly know: Simone Biles really loves Zac Efron, to the point where she’ll give a side-eye to a teammate whenever they bring him up. That’s what happened during NBC Olympics’ Facebook Live session with the Final Five. Responding to a question about whether she took a nap after the floor competition, Aly Raisman said she didn’t have a chance to rest, and the crew wouldn’t let her, because they were trying to keep Zac Efron’s presence a surprise.

From Raisman:

”At first, I was literally not feeling good, so I was laying down, and they made me get up, and I thought they were being mean, because I wanted to like skip the interview. But thankfully, I didn’t skip it, ‘cause Zac Efron was in there.

Immediately, Biles playfully chimed in:

“Girl, that’s my man. Don’t talk to me like that.”

Raisman clarified that it was just “cool” that they got to meet Efron, but Biles followed it up with a great side-eye. Meanwhile, all the other teammates sat in silence looking on their phones, trying not to laugh, because they know how serious she is about Efron.

The whole exchange was brilliant. You can watch the entire video on the NBC Olympics' Facebook page.
