University gymnast Olivia Dunne has forced her faculty to review her security system during the events in which she participates. The student has an ultra-increasing popularity rating, especially among young men of her age, which has even allowed her to become a millionaire.
Being a student and a millionaire is the dream combo of schoolchildren. Well college gymnast Olivia Dunne has managed to find the miracle recipe. The 20-year-old has raised nearly two million dollars through brand partners. A sum that can be explained by the status of the American, star of social networks, almost as followed as the star gymnast Simone Biles, quadruple Olympic champion.
Indeed, Olivia Dunne has 3 and 6.8 million subscribers on Instagram and TikTok. Impressive figures that follow her even on her sporting events in which she participates with her university. Many of her fans (mostly young men her age) come to see her at work in her gymnastics competitions.
On January 6, they did not see the young American, injured in the shoulder. Her admirers therefore thought they saw Olivia Dunne at the exit of the enclosure where the gymnastics competition was taking place. In vain. Which provoked their annoyances by yelling at the young girls of Olivia Dunne’s team.
A security guard to protect his team
The police even had to intervene to calm the crowd and escort the TikTok star to safety, who reacted by posting a message on his Twitter account: “I would appreciate and always want your support, but if you come to a meeting, I want to ask you to respect other gymnasts and the gymnastics community because we are just doing our job.”
Olivia Dunne is a well-known personality on social networks in the United States
From now on, the LSU university, located in Louisiana, has decided to hire a security guard to accompany Olivia Dunne’s team. An incredible choice but anything but insane given the turn that recent events have taken. “The bodyguard will be in our hotel and outside our locker room and will drive us to and from the venue bus,” explained team coach Jay Clark.
“Seven figures. That’s something I’m proud of. Especially since I’m a woman in college sports. There are no pro leagues for most women’s sports after college,” Olivia said. Dunne in an interview with The New York Times. Words that are not shared by several American sports personalities who believe that the reasons for its popularity are a step backwards for the female cause in sport.
