Who is Baby Gronk? Livvy Dunne “rizz” TikTok meme explained
Instagram: maddensanmiguel, livvydunneBaby Gronk is the internet’s latest celebrity, but his sudden rise in popularity is leaving some netizens confused. Don’t worry, we’ve got the lowdown on this social media mogul, as well as who Livvy Dunne is and why she “rizzed” up Baby Gronk.
To those not chronically addicted to TikTok, the words ‘Baby Gronk’ and ‘rizz’ might seem like total gobbledygook. And we don’t blame you; this new social media trend basically started overnight, after all.
However, this story’s beginnings date back to back in March, when 10-year-old Madden San Miguel met up with viral Louisiana State University gymnast Olivia ‘Livvy’ Dunne. Their meeting was posted in a YouTube video by Miguel’s parents, and there it sat for two months.
Shortly afterward, a TikToker named ‘h00pify’ posted their meetup on his account, narrating over the clip by saying that Livvy had “rizzed” the youngster up and made him want to join LSU.
Although this all took place earlier in the year, the video was recently reposted to Twitter and has taken social media by storm. Many netizens are seemingly confused about the terms “Baby Gronk,” “Livvy “Dunne,” and “rizz” — on top of ‘h00pify’s’ rather off-putting stare into the camera.
The whole video has acted as a sort of catalyst for those not within Gen Z to yell at clouds and realize just how out of touch they are with the youth… but for those wanting to be one of the cool kids, don’t worry. We’ve got a few definitions for you that might help with these uncomfortable feelings.
