Olivia Dunne posts photo ‘the media does NOT want to see’

Olivia Dunne’s got jokes.

The star LSU gymnast shared a recent post on TikTok that featured a photo of her glammed up while wearing a sparkling black dress — and another snap of her sporting a Bass Pro Shop hat and baggy t-shirt while holding a bag of Cheetos.

“The side the media does NOT want to see,” the 21-year-old Dunne quipped to her 7.9 million followers.

She has an additional 5.1 million followers on Instagram, and more than $124,000 followers on X, formerly Twitter.

The Sports Illustrated model had fun replying in the comments to some that said she was “looking good” in the photos.

Dunne, a New Jersey native, and the Lady Tigers, are preparing to compete in the 2024 NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championships, which will take place in Fort Worth, Texas, April 18-20.

The LSU women’s gymnastics team won its fifth conference title at the SEC Championship last month in New Orleans.

The No. 3 nationally ranked Lady Tigers finished with a top score of 198.075, which was the program’s highest at the championships.

Kiya Johnson led the team on bars and scored a 9.825, while Ashley Cowan matched her career high in the second spot with a 9.950. 

Dunne competed in the third spot for her second appearance on bars this year and scored 9.800.

The Lady Tigers scored a total 49.450 on bars, which was second-highest on the event by LSU at the conference championships.

It came after they finished the regular season as the No. 1 team in the conference.

Dunne shared a bunch of photos and videos of her and her teammates celebrating in the locker room with the trophy on social media.
