I'm not a celebrity. I'm just the same Simone. I just have two Olympic Gold medals now.

I knew that life isn't always just about the Olympic gold medals and the sponsors.

I have won all the medals that I can win over the 20 years, except for an Olympic gold. I won't miss the chance this time.

It took me time to realize that the men who won Olympic gold medals in the decathlon are just men, just like me.

I'm just sorry I couldn't come home with a second Olympic gold medal.

I'm thrilled that I was able to share my first Olympic Games experience with my U.S. teammates.
