In an appearance in March on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," Olympic gymnast Simone Biles revealed that her celebrity crush was Zac Efron.

Host Ellen DeGeneres wanted to make sure Biles got Efron's attention, so she gave Biles a leotard covered in pictures of the "High School Musical" star.

And it looks like the leotard worked.

Efron reached out to the gold medalist on Twitter a couple of months after she appeared on the show.

Since then, Efron has continued to tweet out support for Biles.

Talk about making a girl swoon.

The "Bad Grandpa" star posted a photo on Wednesday of himself making a heart with his hands in front of a picture of the U.S. women's Olympic gymnastics team.

After the Olympics are over, hopefully, we'll be cheering on a new team: Biles and Efron.
