Dunne doesn’t just dominate the mat, she also starts living in people’s hearts for her good deeds.

In line with that, the 20-year-old gymnast initiated the Livvy Fund to bring her dreams to life. In spite of driving people crazy over her presence and surmounting herself by ‘the most-searched athlete’ title, Dunne faces the wrath of the sports world.

Recently, Sports Illustrated played a rapid-fire with Livvy in her respective holy arena at LSU. In the collab, some fun comparisons came her way, and her answers looked like she cakewalked. SI captioned the post as “Rapid fire with @livvydunne”. When asked “Beyonce or Taylor Swift?”, Livvy didn’t take a minute to vote for the latter star.

Subsequently, when asked to pick between “Instagram or TikTok?”, the star gymnast picked TikTok without much ado. In similar lines, she chose Starbucks over Dunkin Doughnuts, and Taylor Ham over Pork Roll. When asked to shed some light on the probable of the Super Bowl, Dunne confidently advocated The Saints.

When she acknowledged that Simone Biles is the greatest US gymnast, she asserted her gymnastic torch-bearer. Besides all these nice things, there are some not-so-nice comments popping up now and then. Everything good comes with a set of drawbacks, and now it comes with a set of hate comments.
