Olivia Dunne bagged a sponsorship deal with the deodorant brand, W, and promoted it with a unique stunt at a Walmart store. Dunne is set to kick off the 2025 gymnastics season, her last year of eligibility at LSU.
Dunne made waves in the 2023-24 gymnastics season with LSU, matching her career-high of 9.9 twice in the floor exercise. Her uneven bars performance significantly influenced LSU's title-winning feat at the SEC championships. Though Dunne didn't compete at the NCAA Championships finals, she was part of the National title-winning team, which won the NCAA Championships finals for the first time.
On October 23, 2024, Dunne took to her Instagram handle to perform a unique gymnastics trick while promoting her newest partner brand, W, owned by American boxer and YouTuber, Jake Paul. The national champion threw the deodorant bottle up in the air, and while she did two back flips, she kicked the bottle further until it landed in her hand in a cinematic way.
"You probably smell… get W in the naturals isle at Walmart;) @itscalledw @jakepaul," Dunne's caption read.
The Louisiana native recently graced the covers of Flaunt magazine, a Los Angeles-based publication. She donned looks from designers like Louis Vuitton, French designer Jean Paul Gaultier, and Nautica for the shoot.
Owing to the NIL update, Olivia Dunne amassed $500,000 from a single social media post earlier in 2023. She also became the most-followed NCAA athlete on social media with a combined 13 million followers on Instagram and TikTok.
Olivia Dunne enjoyed a beach vacation with her boyfriend and MLB pitcher Paul Skenes in Florida
Ahead of the 2024/25 gymnastics season at LSU, Olivia Dunne turned heads with glamorous updates from her and Paul Skenes' Floridian vacation. In an Instagram post shared on October 20, 2024, the gymnast was captured basking in the sun in a paste yellow bikini, striking the victory pose inside the plane, cozied up in her boyfriend's arms, indulging in a lobster dish, and on the beach against pretty skies.
"No complaints," her caption read.
