Olivia “Livvy” Dunne remains one of the biggest U.S. women’s gymnastics supporters at the Paris Olympics.
The star LSU gymnast and social media sensation hit Bercy Arena on Tuesday to cheer on Simone Biles and Team USA, who earned the gold medal in the team final.
In one video captured on Dunne’s Instagram Stories, Biles — now the most decorated U.S. gymnast in Olympic history with eight medals — is seen performing her enthralling floor routine that earned her a score of 14.666.
Dunne captioned the video with flying money stacks emojis.
Team USA, also comprised of Jordan Chiles, Sunisa “Suni” Lee, Jade Carey and Hezly Rivera, won gold in Tuesday’s competition with a total score of 171.296 — more than five points higher than second-place Italy (165.494) and Brazil (164.497), which finished third.

Biles, 27, and Lee, 21, will next participate in Thursday’s individual all-around final.
Dunne, a national champion gymnast at LSU, has been cheering on Team USA since touching down in Paris for this year’s Games.
Earlier this week, she showed support to Lee in the qualifiers.
Dunne is soaking up part of her summer in the City of Lights before returning to Baton Rouge for her fifth and final year of eligibility with LSU gymnastics.
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, 21, confirmed earlier this month that she is “not Dunne yet” with the Lady Tigers.
“These past four years have changed my life. There is something about putting on a purple and gold leotard,” Dunne said in an Instagram video. “… And no matter how many opportunities come my way off the mat, there’s just something about LSU. And that’s why I’m here to say, I’m not done yet.
“Here’s to year 5, baby.”
Though Dunne has been making the most of her time in Paris, an Olympics pursuit doesn’t appear to be in her future.
“I don’t think I’m going to try for the Olympics or anything after, since I once competed for Team USA and I closed that chapter and went to LSU,” she told The Post exclusively in June.
Dunne and the Lady Tigers captured the program’s first NCAA Championship in April.
The 2024 Olympics run through Aug. 11.
