Olivia Dunne is bigger than Beyonce on TikTok

Olivia Dunne's rise to social media prominence has been well documented and she has a massive following of 4.9 million on Instagram and 7.9 million on TikTok. Interestingly, Dunne has a significantly higher following on TikTok than Beyonce, with the pop icon's following standing at 5.2 million.

There could be explanations for this, such as the user demographics of the platform, but still, this is impressive. As such, it should come as no surprise to learn that Dunne earns good money from posting sponsored content.

While Dunne herself once earned $500,000 from a single IG post, her dog, Roux, is also an ambassador for Pro Plan Sport dog food. The details of Roux's deal with the company, however, are yet to be revealed.

Olivia Dunne hasn't participated in many meets this season but she is training hard to be ready whenever called upon. Regularly sharing clips of her routines and practice, Dunne is hoping the Tigers can win it all in her senior year.

While there is a long way to go, LSU is certainly off to a promising start and it will be interesting to see how far they can go. Although they have a very good program, the Tigers are not the favorites, with Oklahoma leading the pack.
