Olympic champion gymnast Jordan Chiles has stunned her mother Gina Chiles with her latest appearance for the dance reality show Dancing with the Stars. Chiles is preparing for the upcoming Halloween Night at the 34th season of the dance reality show, which will be broadcasted tonight on the ABC channel.

According to the media reports, Jordan Chiles would be performing a contemporary dance routine on the song 'Elastic Dance' by Sia with her dance partner, Ezra Sosa. The gymnast would be appearing in an all-blue avatar inspired by the Na'vi hybrids from the Avatar franchise.

Jordan Chiles shared some glimpses of her new look for the Halloween night. The Olympic champion gymnast captioned her post as,

"Just getting a little preview for @dancingwiththestars HALLOWEEN NIGHT TOMORROW!! Let the Halloween week begin!!!"

Jordan Chiles' mother Gina Chiles immediately expressed her thoughts in the comments section of the post with a one-word reaction. Chiles posted,

"Insane!"

Jordan Chiles is the eighth American gymnast overall to have qualified for Dancing with the Stars. The 24-year-old gymnast aims to become only the third gymnast, after Shawn Johnson and Laurie Hernandez, to hold the coveted mirrorball trophy, given to the winner of each edition of Dancing with the Stars.

Jordan Chiles has been well known for her confident demeanor. The gymnast had already declared before entering Dancing with the Stars that she wouldn't hesitate to try out various tricks.

Her dance partner, Ezra Sosa, admires her bold attitude. However, he attempted to give her constructive feedback when he remarked,

"Honestly, she should [have hesitation] sometimes, but I think that’s one of the greatest things about her is how fearless she is. That’s how someone like her is where she’s at.” (via US Weekly)

Ezra Sosa was probably referring to the 'mean girl' controversy when the gymnast was accused of being allegedly rude towards her dance partner during the early days of the 34th season of Dancing with the Stars. However, the gymnast revealed that all was well between her and Ezra Sosa. She even wrote in her Instagram story,

"I think it's crazy how people can make a situation so big and out of proportion when all I was doing was following rules."

Jordan Chiles and Ezra Sosa achieved their first perfect 10s last week. Performing a rumba routine, the dancing duo received a near-perfect score of 39 out of 40 from the four jury members.
