Simone Biles may have ruled out starring on "Dancing with the Stars" season 23, but she's up for a hosting duty on "Saturday Night Live". The 19-year-old gymnast has pleaded for her and her fellow Olympic gymnasts, known collectively as the Final Five, to appear on the NBC sketch series during the upcoming season 42.
Biles suggests that she, Gabby Douglas, Laurie Hernandez, Madison Kocian and Aly Raisman host the long-running variety show in response to the show's tweet which read, "Who do you think should host this season? Tweet us your suggestions with #SNLhost." Biles then responded on Wednesday night, August 31, "#FinalFive PLEASE! We have been dying to do it."

The five gymnasts collected nine medals in total during the Olympic Games in Rio. Biles herself brought home four gold medals in the team all-around, the individual all-around, the vault, and the floor.
"SNL" returns with the new season October 1 at 11:30 P.M. ET on NBC.
