Social media sensation and LSU gymnast Olivia “Livvy” Dunne is speaking out about a frightening experience involving aggressive autograph seekers, sharing an emotional TikTok video after a distressing encounter at an airport.
The 22-year-old posted the tearful clip on Friday, expressing that she feels stalked by middle-aged men who appear to track her travel movements. Despite not revealing her flight plans online, Dunne says these individuals have been consistently waiting for her at airport terminals—often in groups—hoping to get her autograph.
“It Feels Like I’m Being Hunted”
In the video, Dunne appears visibly shaken, eyes red and teary behind oversized glasses, as she describes being chased after landing from a red-eye flight. She says the aggressive behavior makes her and bystanders feel unsafe.
“It’s terrifying,” Dunne shared. “I’m just a 22-year-old girl, and I’m constantly being approached and followed by grown men. I never post my location or travel schedule, so how are they finding me?”
She hinted that airline insiders or someone with access to flight information may be tipping people off about her whereabouts—raising further concerns about her safety and privacy.
Fame, Privacy, and Public Scrutiny
Dunne skyrocketed to fame thanks to her viral gymnastics clips and modeling content, amassing millions of followers. Her high-profile relationship with MLB star Paul Skenes has also drawn more attention to her personal life.
Now, Dunne is calling for more respect and boundaries from the public and fans alike, especially when it comes to approaching her in vulnerable spaces like airports.
“Just because someone is in the public eye doesn’t mean they should have to feel afraid in public,” she said.
