OLIVIA Dunne has been celebrating the long-awaited launch of the 2023 SI Swimsuit magazine. And the Louisiana State University gymnast, 20, loved the promo video a Sports Illustrated photographer put together after her photoshoot.
Ben Watts, a cameraman and director, uploaded a montage from Dunne’s photo session to Instagram on Tuesday. Watts shot the footage on a VHS tape, giving the clip a vintage look.
In the video, the LSU star was seen posing and dancing in different swimsuits on one of Puerto Rico’s islands.
Livvy shared the post on her Instagram Story, captioning it: “Amazin.” Sports Illustrated released the 2023 SI Swimsuit issue on Monday, May 15.
Dunne joined 27 other women who were featured in the magazine’s annual publication.
Those included fellow LSU athlete Angel Reese, who won the NCAA Tournament with the Tigers earlier this year.
Livvy said it was “a dream come true” after being revealed as one of the SI Swimsuit models. “There are a lot of young girls that look up to me and I feel like a lot of young girls also follow Sports Illustrated,” she said.
“So, both of our brands align because we both want to inspire the younger generation.”
Dunne surged to the top of the list of the highest-earning US female student-athletes after joining LSU’s gymnastics team. The New Jersey native took full advantage of the NCAA legalizing name, image, and likeness (NIL) deals in 2021, becoming one of the faces of college sports.
Livvy’s rise was fueled by her rapidly-growing social media presence with the gymnast boasting over four million followers on Instagram and more than seven million on TikTok.
