“We were able to riff off each other and give the artists the best insight going into the next round,” Biles told the Associated Press after filming an episode with Snoop.
“We have the best experience and knowledge to give to these performers,” Snoop added. “She’s a performer. I’m a performer. We’ve performed under extreme conditions. We always do our best. But sometimes things happen behind closed doors that you don’t know about. So, we’re able to speak to those things and give them real reassurance.”
Biles, 27, is a seven-time gold medalist at the Olympics, an 11-time medalist overall and arguably the greatest female gymnast in history. So yes, she’s an excellent resource for performers who need to understand how to best handle pressure.
