Former LSU gymnast Olivia "Livvy" Dunne stunned spectators at the recent Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Runway Show, taking a very unique turn when she stepped on the runway: she broke into the splits.
This wasn't Dunne's first run with Sports Illustrated. She was one of four cover girls for the magazine's recent swimsuit issue. She's been working with Sports Illustrated since 2023. She even did her photoshoot with the company this year while nursing a patella fracture that kept her from participating on the floor during LSU's senior night festivities.
Dunne said on social media that she had been dared to do the splits on the stage. However, that might not be the full truth.
Following her viral moment, Dunne posted that she was dared to do the splits.
During an interview with USA TODAY's Meghan Hall, though, Dunne admitted she had not been dared.
