More than one year after Team USA's Jordan Chiles was stripped of her bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, the decorated gymnast is addressing the racial backlash that followed. "It was a devastating time," Chiles, 24, said on a Tuesday, November 11 appearance on the "Baby, this is Keke Palmer" podcast, adding that initially she didn't recognize a racial component to the controversy. "I didn't think of it in that way until I started literally getting racist comments, saying this and saying that...people were telling me to kill myself," she continued.
