Taylor Swift seemed to have established the standard in terms of meetings with professional athletes.
Olivia Dunne, a former national champion, a former gymnast in Lsu, told page six in a recent interview that she turned to pop star when it comes to navigating this world. Dunne is related to Pittsburgh Pirates star Paul Skenes.

But unlike the beginning of Swift and Travis Kelce, Dunne and Skenes familiar with each other while they were both went to LSU.
“(Taylor) has her boyfriend who is a professional athlete and my boyfriend is also a professional athlete,” she said at the point of sale. “And she has her own success and I have my own success, so I try to watch her point of view on things and how she manages criticism, how she sails.”
Dunne said that trying to go out with professional athletes is his own beast because they always travel, among the other challenges that accompany her.
In the case of SWIFT, she is currently the most popular recording artist in the world, but she has received huates from NFL fans at Super Bowl Lix last February.

“I think it takes the warmth worse than me, because, I mean, the bigger you are, the more you have tried to destroy yourself,” added Dunne on page six. “It really resonated with me. It is a unique position to be. And I think that for some people, women in sport are uncomfortable for any reason.”
The life of meetings is far from being the only thing for which Dunne looks quickly. She noted that the music icon seems to dominate almost all aspects of life at 35.
“I admire her in so many different ways. Her work ethics, how much she cares about what she puts there and how the meaning behind everything is very admirable.”
