Imagine what would happen if Simone Biles played any other sports than Gymnastics? This question might sound surprising, but one such event occurred way back in 2019. This event happened in July of 2019 when Hollywood celebs like Dascha Polanco came together with eminent rappers like Machine Gun Kelly and gymnastics legend, Simone Biles.

MLB-all star week is an extraordinary time for the US audience. Finally, some prominent heroes, both in reel and real life, came together to sweat it out on the field, and the 2019 edition was no different. In 2018, the games saw tough competition between teams. That spirit was nowhere receded in 2019.
