“They Hate Me”: Olivia Dunne Pokes at LSU Team Unity Following Fan Suspicion

Olivia Dunne is confidently embracing her online presence and handling potential critics with a touch of humour. The gymnastics sensation from LSU is currently savouring her last year of college, reaping the benefits of millions in NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) money. Surprisingly, she commands a whopping $500,000 for a single sponsored post, a testament to her popularity.

With an impressive following of 12.7 million on TikTok and Instagram combined, Dunne is a social media powerhouse. As she navigates her final year at LSU, questions arise about the dynamics behind closed doors. However, Dunne might just be the highest earner on campus at the age of 21. The speculation about the impact of her financial success on the university’s atmosphere lingers: How is this unprecedented level of wealth affecting the behind-the-scenes dynamics?

From ‘Ew’ to ‘Lmfao’: Dunne’s TikTok triumph unleashes LSU gymnastics frenzy

Undeterred by any potential concerns, Olivia Dunne took a light-hearted approach, playfully poking fun at herself in a recent TikTok video that quickly went viral. The clip begins with a woman speculating about the dynamics among Dunne’s teammates, questioning, “My Roman Empire is whether Livy Dunn’s (sic) teammates are nice to her and like. …”.

In her TikTok video, Olivia Dunne provided a humorous glimpse into the dynamics within the LSU Tigers’ locker room. As she entered, some teammates promptly walked away, and one even exclaimed, “Ew.” This was in lieu of the My Roman Empire trend, which indicates what one person dawdles or ponders a lot about. The lady seems to wonder what their dynamics are, and then it cuts to Livvy and her teammates. Of course, all of this was fun and games, as were their rambunctious shenanigans. The video took a delightful turn when it cut to Dunne’s teammates, enthusiastically hyping her up in a lively dance circle, revealing the camaraderie and positive spirit among the gymnastics team. However, the caption reads, “#stitch with @they hate me.”

The video quickly gained traction on TikTok with over 739,000 views and gold medalist Nastia Liukin also praised the video, commenting, “Lmfao too good.“ Meanwhile, on the gymnastics front, LSU climbed to the No. 3 spot in the College Gymnastics Association poll, positioning themselves behind No. 1 Oklahoma and No. 2 Cal.
