Iconic gymnast Simone Biles expressed genuine disbelief after the list for Emmys 2025 nominations was announced.
On Tuesday, the Television Academy unveiled the shows and celebrities competing for the prestigious ceremony.
From returning favorites to fresh new faces, the 77th annual Emmy Awards promised an exciting celebration of television's best.
Among the lineup of nominated shows is Netflix's Simone Biles Rising, which received a nod for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series.
The show will be competing against Chef's Table, 100 Foot Wave, SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night and Social Studies for the same category.
The two-part series offers an intimate look into the journey of a 28-year-old Olympian who navigates personal challenges amid her relentless pursuit of greatness in sports and what has made her the most decorated gymnast in history.
Following the release in 2024, the Netflix documentary scored recognition on the highly acclaimed Emmy stage, leaving Biles both humbled and deeply moved.
In an Instagram Story, the two-time Olympian reposted a post from Religion of Sports, the media company behind the documentary series, and delivered a two-word reaction to the major recognition.
"STOP IT," she wrote, adding screaming face emojis that represent her overwhelming excitement.

On the other hand, the highly anticipated Emmys will air on September 14 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS and stream on Paramount+.
