Simone is the youngest competitor left in the Dancing with the Stars competition at 20-years-old. The bubbly beauty is paired with pro dancer Sasha Farber, and ironically, his fiancee Emma Slater is still in the running for the mirrorball trophy with her celebrity partner Rashad Jennings.

Simone has been a bright star on the show since the beginning, but she has yet to receive a perfect total score from the judges -- something many fans would argue is long overdue. During interviews with the press, Simone has expressed frustration that the judges are a little hard on her and she deserves better scores.

But there's still time left for Simone to blow the judges away. Will she make it all the way on Dancing with the Stars like Olympian Laurie Hernandez before her?

Below is a list of 9 facts Reality TV World has compiled about Simone Biles:
