Arenas is on the same college gymnastics team as influencer and internet sensation Dunne.
The two are good friends and regularly update their followers with snaps from their personal lives and LSU competitions.
Dunne became a millionaire at just 18 after taking advantage of relaxed college NIL rules.
College stars can now benefit from her image rights, giving Livvy an estimated net worth of $2.3 million.
She has a fanatical social media fan base of around 8million – but Elena isn’t far behind.
Arenas has 210,000 followers on her TikTok page, while her Instagram recently surpassed 100,000.
And to further demonstrate the friendly rivalry between the two teammates, Elena’s recent pictures might look very familiar.
She uploaded a new series of snaps on Jan. 15 showing her posing in an LSU uniform in a hotel room.
The set immediately reminded fans of a recent shoot of Dunne, who was accused of trying to “seduce” her with similar shots next to a hotel bed.
Elena captioned the pics: “All heart”
Fans flocked to the comments section to swoon over the Georgia native, with one fan previously suggesting her snaps “should be illegal” as she was too “gorgeous”.
One replied: “You will always be number 1.”
While another said: “This is our beam queen.”
And a third controversially added: “Better than Livvy.”
It’s been a rough start to the year for the LSU Tigers, with Dunne in the spotlight for unsavory scenes during their season opener in Utah.
Fans chanting Dunne’s name disrupted the gathering throughout the event, with LSU now going so far as to provide additional reassurance for their gymnasts.
Olivia issued a statement to fans thanking them for their support – but asking them to behave.
It read: “I will always appreciate and love the support from you guys.
“But if you come to a meeting I would ask that you be respectful of the other gymnasts and the gymnastics community as we are just doing our jobs.”
The LSU Tigers gymnastics team takes on No. 1 Oklahoma Monday afternoon.
