The Kentucky Derby - English
Olivia “Livvy” Dunne made her stylish debut at Churchill Downs on Friday, attending the 2025 Kentucky Oaks in a striking pink ensemble that paid tribute to derby tradition.
The 22-year-old former LSU gymnast and viral influencer embraced the color associated with the race’s official flower and Churchill Downs’ breast and ovarian cancer awareness efforts.
That was painful! Olivia Dunne smash her feet on the low bar as she is in denial of retirement
Dunne shared a behind-the-scenes look at her outfit on both Instagram and TikTok, captioning her video with: “Your girl’s first derby :)” The social media star later made an official appearance during the event, delivering the ceremonial “riders up!” announcement in front of the packed grandstand.
Olivia Dunne draws spotlight during busy Derby weekend
While fans were thrilled to see Dunne at the Oaks, one noticeable absence was Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes, her boyfriend. Despite his absence, Dunne commanded attention throughout the day – especially as she participated in a meet-and-greet with fans despite rainy weekend forecasts threatening Churchill Downs’ events.
NBC Sports shared a video of Dunne taking the mic: “Kentucky Oaks fans,” she began. “Now for the annual tradition that we have all been looking forward to, riders up!” Her presence further cemented her crossover into mainstream celebrity status, well beyond her athletic roots.
Dunne wasn’t the only major name spotted at the Oaks. Gina Miles, the winner of “The Voice” Season 23, was in attendance to perform the national anthem.
Later in the evening, she joined a star-studded lineup for the Kentucky Derby Eve Gala, an annual fundraiser that benefits the Barnstable Brown Diabetes Center at the University of Kentucky. To date, the gala has raised more than $21 million for diabetes research and treatment.
Among the celebrities confirmed for the Friday night gala were NFL veterans Aaron Rodgers, Devante Adams, Allen Lazard, and Randall Cobb, as well as Olympian Simone Biles.
The music world was well represented too, with performances expected from Machine Gun Kelly, Dierks Bentley, and Boyz II Men.
Actors Tracy Morgan, Blair Underwood, and Wilmer Valderrama were also listed among the event’s high-profile guests.
Even without her MLB star boyfriend by her side, Dunne managed to steal the show in Louisville, proving her celebrity appeal stretches well beyond the gymnastics mat and TikTok timeline.
With more appearances scheduled throughout Derby weekend, her star power at the racetrack is just getting started.

2025 Week 7 NFL score predictions, bets, odds, picks today: Expert reveals exact scores for all 15 matchups
Through six weeks of the NFL season, it's hard to find a team who doesn't have a serious question mark. Two weeks ago, we would've been raving about the undefeated Eagles and Bills. Now both teams have lost two straight games. How about Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, one of the preseason favorites? With Jackson having been out each of the last two weeks, Baltimore enters its bye week 1-5 and is in serious danger of missing the postseason. Even the three-time defending AFC champion Chiefs aren't immune. They sit 3-3 heading into a Week 7 home date with AFC rival Las Vegas, though Kansas City is the largest favorite of the week at -11.5.Which teams would you take today to make the Super Bowl? Before the contenders start to separate from the pretenders, unpredictability in the NFL will continue […]
NFL pass-rusher rankings ahead of Week 7
Aidan Hutchinson reclaims his No. 1 ranking: After a slow start to the season by his standards (two pressures), Hutchinson has been the league’s most productive pass rusher, generating 34 pressures and six sacks over the past five games. Warren Brinson impressed in his NFL debut: The Packers rookie logged an 80.6 PFF pass-rushing grade, the top mark among rookies, after generating two pressures and a 23.5% win rate in Green Bay's victory over the Bengals. Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes We know that quarterback is the most important position on the field, but a great pass rush is the ultimate equalizer. Pressure disrupts timing, rhythm and accuracy, something only the elite quarterbacks can consistently overcome. Last season, 13 of the top 15 teams in PFF pass-rush grade had a winning record. In 2023, 15 of the top 16 teams […]
