The gymnastics icon weighs in on the best of the best across sports-and keeps it classy
Simone Biles is no stranger to pressure, whether it’s nailing a complex vault in front of millions or gracefully navigating a tricky interview. In a recent sit-down, the gymnastics icon was asked to weigh in on one of the most contentious debates in sports: who is the greatest of all time, Michael Jordan or LeBron James? With her trademark poise, Biles delivered an answer that ended the debate-at least in her world.
The moment began with a simple question from Sports Illustrated: “Michael Jordan or LeBron James?”Biles responded with a smile, “I grew up on LeBron James, so I have to say… LeBron James.”But the conversation didn’t stop there.

The interviewer quickly pivoted, pitting other sports legends against each other. “LeBron James or Diana Taurasi?” Biles answered decisively, “We’re gonna go for women’s sports, so Diana.” When Taurasi was matched against Tiger Woods, she doubled down: “Again, Diana.”

But things got more interesting when Serena Williams entered the conversation. Biles, a longtime admirer of the tennis legend, didn’t hesitate: “Oh, I love Serena, so Serena Williams.” And when Serena was matched against Tom Brady, Biles was unequivocal: “Serena Williams!”

The interviewer saved the boldest question for last: “Serena Williams or Simone Biles?” With a laugh, Biles responded, “Both! We can both win, haha!” It was a classic Biles moment-humble, inclusive, and unwilling to diminish another athlete’s greatness.
While the GOAT debate may rage on in barbershops and sports talk shows, Biles’ answers reflected a deeper truth: greatness isn’t about comparison; it’s about celebrating what each athlete brings to their sport.

Movie enthusiasts have long wondered what Kevin McCallister’s parents from the ‘Home Alone’ films did for a living.
The title and its sequel, ‘Home Alone 2: Lost In New York,’ are two of the most iconic Christmas films ever made and remain popular to this day.
Macaulay Culkin returns to screens as the aforementioned McCallister boy every holiday season, which is why people keep asking what his parents, Peter and Kate, did for work. After all, they lived in a huge house in the Chicago suburbs and could have afforded to travel to France for Christmas.
The house was worth around $1 million in the late 1980s and the first movie launched in 1990. It would probably be worth significantly more in 2024.
Kevin’s parents, Peter and Kate, were played by the late John Heard and Catherine O’Hara, who were both successful in their careers. According to director Chris Columbus, who revealed as much to The Hollywood Reporter, Peter may have worked in advertising, while Kate was a fashion designer.
