Simone Biles has come under fire from comedian Roseanne Barr for receiving $44,000 in student loan forgiveness,

 

despite having a net worth estimated at $14 million. Barr expressed frustration on social media, questioning why taxpayer money was being used to benefit millionaires like Biles. The criticism has sparked a broader debate on the fairness of student loan forgiveness programs, with Barr arguing that such aid should go to those in greater financial need.

Biles defended her position, explaining that the loan forgiveness was part of a federal program designed to support individuals who have made personal sacrifices for their education. She emphasized that the assistance allowed her to focus on her gymnastics career and her community contributions.
