Olivia Dunne got to shoot for Sports Illustrated. PDO
Enjoyed huge popularity on social media Olivia Dunne has realized his big dream.
The 20-year-old gymnast has been chosen as the model for Sports Illustrated magazine’s legendary swimsuit issue.
Dunne says that he has always dreamed of being on the set of that magazine.
– Thank you Sports Illustrated for making my dreams come true, he writes on Twitter.
Sports Illustrated says it chose Dunne as the star of its magazine story because she has managed to create a big brand for herself as a college gymnast and at the same time increase the popularity of the sport as a whole.
– Olivia sets an example of what athletes can achieve in the future also outside the competition arenas. In a world where women are constantly forced to choose one lane to drive, “Livvy” uses all lanes – and wins on every front, the magazine writes in his Instagram post.
Dunne gets a lot of attention from American teenagers on social media and also in real life. He has become so popular that sometimes the followers’ enthusiasm to see him also causes dangerous situations.
Dunne wants to make it clear to other young women that there is no need to blame yourself in such situations.
– Girls are not responsible for boys’ bad behavior. Many gymnasts are taught to be quiet and this has led to a large amount of harassment in our sport. I want to be part of a new generation that encourages girls to use their voices. We can be confident in our own bodies and at the same time strong, sexy and smart, social star says.
Sports Illustrated’s annual swimsuit issue is published in May.
