During the Variety Sports Culture Happy Hour discussion panel at Cannes Lions Festival, Jordan Chiles reflected upon her thoughts and shared her desire to be recognized beyond artistic gymnastics. She mentioned:

“You go on my social media, you’re gonna know I’m a dog mom. You’re gonna know that I love fashion. I don’t want you just to think of me as Jordan Chiles, a two-time Olympian who did this, that and the other in gymnastics. "I would like for you to understand that I like watching other sports. I would like for you to understand that Uber Eats is literally the only app I have on my phone.”

In her decorated collegiate career, Chiles has won three NCAA titles and two second-place finishes.
