The underlined phrase has a figurative meaning, which creates an inspired voice.

When something is said to be figurative, it means that metaphorical terms are being used to describe it such that it is easier to understand. The description is therefore not literal. In calling the gymnasts "supergirls", the speaker does not mean that they have super powers but that they are doing great things like a super hero would.

This is said in an inspired voice because the speaker wishes to be like them someday.
