SZA unveiled another impressive skill beyond music that drew high praise from gymnastics superstar Simone Biles.

The multiple Grammy winner showed off her nimble athletic abilities during a friendly handstand contest with Biles during an NBC promo spot released Monday.

In the two-minute video, SZA met Biles at the gymnast’s training facility in Spring, Texas. As both stretched, Biles asked SZA about pivoting from gymnastics to music, the latter of which the singer called her “hidden talent.”

“When it was clear to me that I wasn’t going to be a national gymnast, I was like ‘OK, let me see what else I can do and be good at,’ ” SZA said. The singer was heavily involved in gymnastics for more than a decade before she reached music stardom.

“I needed something I could be competitive at,” SZA continued.

When SZA went into her handstand, Biles thought she was practicing until the singer firmly held her stance for a few seconds.

“Oh, she’s practicing. Wait, that’s good,” said Biles, who applauded SZA’s skills with excitement.

Both then went into their handstands at the same time. After around 15 seconds, Biles’ feet dropped first to the mat, making SZA the winner.

“That was so good,” said Biles, the most decorated gymnast in history.

SZA added: “That was so difficult.”

McKellen pulling out of play’s tour: Actor Ian McKellen said Monday he is withdrawing from a U.K. tour of his latest play because he needs more time to recover after falling off the stage at a London theater last month. McKellen, 85, said his injuries “improve day by day.”

“It’s with the greatest reluctance that I have accepted the medical advice to protect my full recovery by not working in the meantime,” he said.

The “Lord of the Rings” star spent three nights in a London hospital after tumbling from the stage during a performance of “Player Kings” on June 17.

Audio malfunction blamed for censored speech: Usher’s acceptance speech of the BET Awards’ lifetime achievement award was heartfelt, occasionally profane and lengthy — and few people got to hear it.

The 13-minute speech was largely censored, leaving viewers at home curious to know what Usher said. A BET spokesperson said that “due to an audio malfunction during the live telecast, portions of his speech were inadvertently muted. We extend our sincere apologies to Usher as we couldn’t be more grateful for his participation.”

A full version of the speech is now available on BET’s YouTube channel. Much of his speech centered on the idea of fatherhood, forgiveness and his three-decadelong career. It appears that the heavy censoring started shortly after Usher said “Sorry, I’m gonna curse and let you know how I really feel” early on in his acceptance.
