LSU gymnastics star Olivia Dunne has racked up a seven-figure salary through brand sponsorships and NIL deals. She has made a name for herself as a social media influencer and has grown a loyal fan base of more than 12.2 million followers across Instagram and TikTok. And, as a result of her large platform and exceptional feed including gymnastics videos, bikini photos and relatable college student content, she often gets strange comments and questions.

However, the New Jersey native has figured out the perfect response for when people ask something along the lines of, “Can I come watch you practice?” And she even made a TikTok out of it.

“I’m going to have to bring you down to earth for a sec,” she lip-synced along to a popular audio snippet from Alexis Rose’s (played by Annie Murphy) monologue on Schitt’s Creek. “There’s no way you’re getting tickets to that show, but I love your enthusiasm.”

The 20-year-old donned tight white athletic shorts and a figure-hugging blue tank top with a sports bra underneath. Her long blonde locks were tossed back into a high ponytail with some face-framing pieces left loose and she accessorized with a Van Cleef pendant necklace. She sat with her legs crossed on a cream swivel chair and spun around at the end of the sentence.

“love your enthusiasm tho! #foryou #lsu #gymnastics,” the 2023 SI Swimsuit model captioned the Sept. 8 video.

“TikTok really said FOR YOU page,” one fan joked.

“you are gorgeous livvy,” another chimed.

“Only Paul Skenes gets those tickets,” someone wrote in reference to Dunne’s boyfriend, a Pittsburgh Pirates baseball player and former LSU athlete.
