The lazy girl in us will do anything to avoid ironing, from throwing clothes in the dryer to skipping styles that wrinkle easily. But when you're an Olympian and flag bearer required to wear a uniform for the closing ceremony? You don't really have a choice — and that's exactly why Simone Biles, in particular, is lucky to have a pal and teammate like Laurie Hernandez. Simone shared a snap of Laurie before the big event, in which the 16-year-old can be seen bent over, smiling, and ironing her friend's clothes. Laurie's hard work definitely paid off in the end: both girls looked sharp and spectacular in their Polo Ralph Lauren ensembles, proving a little effort — and zero creases or wrinkles — can really go a long way!
