Olivia Dunne took some time to read through the Instagram comments in response to her latest social media selfies, and the LSU gymnast joked that she was “scared” by some of the enthusiastic responses.

Dunne, 21, shared a trio of photos earlier this week of her posing in a black dress and, like all her social media posts, the likes and comments poured in.

One fan responded with a poem about how Dunne has “captured my heart in ways I never thought possible” — to which she simply wrote back, “I’m scared.”

Another follower explained his devotion to her by dreaming he was holding hands with Dunne, to which she replied with a hint about her relationship with MLB prospect Paul Skenes of the Pittsburgh Pirates.

“I hate to tell you…” Dunne wrote back.

And in another, where a fan praised Dunne for her outfit, she joked that Roux the dog picked it out for her.

Last week, Dunne enjoyed one of her best gymnastics nights at LSU, scoring a 9.90 despite being called up to anchor the LSU Tigers on short notice in floor exercise.

In a competition against BYU, Oregon State and No. 15 Minnesota, Dunne came on for Kiya Johnson in the final minute to anchor a remarkable team performance.

“We ultimately pulled Kiya, not because of anything in particular,” head coach Jay Clark said. “We knew the meeting was close and we had to go easy on her body.”

Although she was a talented gymnast, Dunne’s profile has skyrocketed thanks to her online presence.

According to SportsKeeda, Dunne has earned approximately $6 million from endorsement deals made primarily through social media.
