Boasting 12 million followers across all social platforms, the 21-year-old Olivia Dunne stands as a worthy owner of the laurels. At a very tender age, she has established herself as the highest paid NCAA athlete. Showered herself with lucrative brand deals and sponsorships, and has received consistent support from her family. But a part of her life still sparks concern.

Undoubtedly, the gorgeous Livvy Dunne has male followers, who are usually tuned in to her posts for her looks and appeal. Although her gymnastic journey at LSU and beyond has also been successful, she doesn’t get much appreciation for it. In the same vein, a recent Instagram post features her success story, but with dismissive comments.

A while back, the 21-year-old LSU gymnast secured her name on the ‘Forbes’ Top Creators 2023 list. Soon after, she made yet another appearance with Forbes in their 30 under 30 edition. On a mission to accredit the young achievers who have made notable difference, Forbes has taken this initiative. So, Olivia Dunne celebrated her moment with the caption, “@forbes 30 under 30.”

The carousel of pictures looked stunning as the 21-year-old graced the set-up in a black co-ord set. She sat on a grey chair, which pleasantly complimented her outfit. Her beautiful golden tresses were loosely kept to give an extra oomph to the pictures. Having said so, her forever cheerleader and sister, Julz Dunne, showered young Livvy with love. Captioned her Instagram story as “Takes a village,” while capturing a behind-the-scenes moment.

But Livvy’s followers don’t seem to be impressed as her fanbase is a mix of trolls and admirers. So, this time as well, they jumped in with hate comments.

Livvy gets negative fan comments

One Instagram user questioned her gymnastic expertise, saying, “Is she actually good at gymnastics? I’m just curious,..” On the other hand, another fan came with a detestable comment, which read, “30 under 30? You don’t have a job.” Taking a jab at women in general, an Instagram user said, “30 under 30 for literally being good looking. Women live life on easy mode.”

Not leaving any stone unturned, her followers went as far as, “@forbes is falling off and losing credibility. 30 for 30 used to be about engineers and scientists. Now it’s about female influencers who use their looks to manipulate their followers.” Though the comment had some truth to spill, it was a hard blow to the Olivia Dunne. Never failing to call Livvy out for posting photoshopped photos, a fan said, “Holy photoshop.”
