Here’s how Olivia Dunne got a spot as a model at SI Swimsuit
In April 2023, Olivia Dunne made headlines after she was signed by SI Swimsuit as its model at such a young age. Interestingly, it was Dunne’s attitude that led her to the renowned magazine.
During her recent interview with Full Send Podcast, Dunne shared that in November 2022, the prestigious New York Times infamously published a column on Olivia Dunne with a caption that read, "New Endorsements for College Athletes Resurface an Old Concern: Sex Sells."
According to Dunne, the publication carried a telephonic interview with her and described her as a petite young blonde, something she took issue with.
Dunne stood her ground and clapped back at the New York Times. Her brave attitude impressed SI Swimsuit and later got her a spot as its model. Dunne revealed in the podcast:
"I guess it caught Sports Illustrated’s attention and then they were like, ‘We loved that you clapped back at The New York Times since they’re so major," she said.
