Simone Biles revived the Elmo and Rocco feud at the Olympics, and it was hysterical
Team USA women’s gymnastics superstar Simone Biles didn’t leave this year’s Olympics without saying hello to Sesame Street correspondent Elmo.
Well, she did more than say hello. She revived Elmo’s feud with his infamous rock rival, Rocco.
In an absolutely incredible video shared by the red Muppet monster on social media, Biles tells Elmo that she wants to take a photo with someone she’s always wanted to share a frame with.
Thinking it’s him, Elmo appears very excited. However, it’s not Elmo. It’s Rocco. Elmo’s sunny disposition immediately sours as he expresses his extreme contempt for Rocco’s presence at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Elmo’s longstanding beef with the pet rock is one of the most randomly funny things on Sesame Street these days, as the typically jubilant Muppet has a very strong disdain for Rocco, even at the Olympics.
