Taylor Swift is no stranger to massive crowds, loud cheers, and, unfortunately, some boos along the way. But what happens when another famous face in the sports world steps up and subtly defends her? Enter the defending national gymnastics champion, Olivia Dunne.

The gymnastics sensation attended the Super Bowl on February 9 with her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, and her sister. The stadium was packed with electrifying energy as fans gathered to watch the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles. But amid all the action, one unexpected moment stole the spotlight. It was Taylor Swift, who got booed.

It’s no secret that Taylor Swift’s presence at NFL games this season has sparked mixed reactions. Some fans absolutely love seeing her on the big screen, supporting her boyfriend, Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce. Others, however, feel that her appearances get too much attention, taking away from the game itself.

At the Super Bowl, when cameras panned to Taylor, a wave of boos echoed through the stadium. Was it jealousy? Was it just a loud minority? No one knows for sure. But one thing is certain Olivia Dunne didn’t approve of it.

Olivia Dunne’s TikTok response is the unspoken bond between WAGs

Shortly after the incident on Tuesday, the gymnastics star Olivia Dunne took to TikTok to clarify one thing she was NOT one of the people booing Taylor Swift. She posted a video with the caption, “Don’t do my fellow WAG like that.” In the video, she said, “Taylor Swift just got booed, someone needs to tell her I wasn’t part of it ASAP.”

For those unfamiliar, WAG stands for wives and girlfriends of athletes, a term often used in sports culture. Olivia Dunne, being the girlfriend of an MLB player, understands what it’s like to be in the spotlight simply for dating an athlete. And Taylor? Well, her relationship with Travis Kelce has become one of the most talked-about storylines in sports and entertainment.

Olivia Dunne’s TikTok post might seem like a small thing, but in reality, it speaks volumes about the unspoken support system among WAGs. Dating a high-profile athlete comes with its own set of challenges like public scrutiny, constant media attention, and sometimes, unnecessary hate. Livvy chose Swift and Kelce as her “power couple” when asked on a YouTube podcast, ‘Best of Both Worlds with Flau’jae,’ even months before. Olivia’s quick defense of Taylor highlights how women in similar positions can stand up for each other, even in subtle ways.

This isn’t the first time Olivia Dunne has used her platform to speak up. As one of the most followed college athletes on social media, she’s well aware of how public perception can shift quickly. By making it clear that she wasn’t part of the booing crowd, she not only defended Taylor but also sent a message about how women in sports (and sports culture) should uplift each other.

So, what do you think? Were the boos unfair to Taylor Swift, or is it just part of being a public figure? And do you think Olivia Dunne did the right thing by posting her TikTok response? Let us know in the comments below!
