Olivia Dunne says she’s had enough of the people tracking her down in airports, and her latest warning was blunt: she says some men have crossed the line from fandom into stalking.
In a TikTok video posted after she returned from a family vacation, the former LSU star said she felt unsafe during her most recent airport experience and accused people of selling her flight information, buying refundable tickets, and trying to get through security to reach her at the gate. “To the people still selling my flight information, stalking me at the airports, and buying refundable plane tickets to go through security to meet me at my gate, can you please stop?”
Dunne said. “You guys aren’t fans.
You’re professionals. You’re recording me on Meta glasses, getting my autograph, and you’re going to sell it.
But last night, I didn’t feel safe at the airport.”
Dunne also said the situation escalated to the point where her sister had to step in when the group tried to follow her into the women’s bathroom. “If I wasn’t coming back from family vacation and my sister didn’t stop these people, then I don’t know what I would’ve done,” she said.
The 23-year-old made clear that while she has security and could fly private, she doesn’t think women should be forced to change their routines because some men won’t take no for an answer. “Should a woman have to change her behavior because men can’t handle the word no? That’s my point.”
Dunne has already moved into acting, and her next step is a role in next year’s Baywatch reboot, where she’ll play Grace, a junior lifeguard. Photos of her in the iconic red swimsuit have already gone viral.
She also told Jimmy Fallon that her first audition was actually for White Lotus. “I ended up not getting that one,” she said.
“It was probably a show you would know. It was for White Lotus.
I didn’t get it.”
Her Baywatch part is her first recurring role, and it comes as she continues learning how expensive fame can be.

LSU Fans Just Learned The Truth About Easton Royals Recruitment
Easton Royals recruitment is the kind of high-profile battle that always has LSU fans watching closely, and for good reason. The Louisiana native is the No. 1 high school football player in the state and one of the top wide receivers in the country, so every update around his status carries real weight in Baton Rouge. He has been around the SEC spotlight often enough already, with recent visits to Texas, LSU and Florida keeping multiple programs in the conversation.
For LSU, the interest is still very much alive, even if Texas remains the team setting the pace for now. Royals recruitment has been described as warm for both LSU and Florida, and the Longhorns continue to benefit from a strong 2027 class under Steve Sarkisian. The Tigers are still pressing to stay in the hunt for an in-state star who would be a major addition wherever he eventually lands. [Read more 🡒]
Whit Weeks Just Sent LSU Fans A Message About This Defense
Whit Weeks is heading into his senior season with a clear sense of what LSU needs to be, and what it was not nearly enough of a year ago. The linebacker, still working back from the ankle injury that cost him much of last season, has been talking publicly about getting the Tigers defense back on track after a year in which the unit never matched the programs usual standard. LSU enters this fall ranked as high as No. 8 in the preseason polls, which keeps the spotlight bright, but the bigger question remains whether the defense can look like a strength again.
Weeks has been especially vocal about the culture around the unit, praising the new detail-oriented approach around the program and stressing the importance of getting everybody aligned. For LSU, that matters because the margin for error is thin in the SEC, and the Tigers do not have much time to sort it out before opening the 2026 season against Clemson in Tiger Stadium. If Weeks can set the tone in what he knows is his final year in Baton Rouge, the conversation around this defense could change quickly. [Read more 🡒]
