A local Pittsburgh sports personality throws down the gauntlet that the social media darlings have a claim over Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce for the top spot.
Don’t worry Swifties, local Pittsburgh radio personality Andrew Fillipponi isn’t coming after the universally-beloved world conqueror Swift, but rather he sees Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce as the weak link in the power couple rankings vs. social media superstar and LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne and her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates rookie sensation Paul Skenes.What a power couple. The Swift-Kelce of Major League Baseball. Possibly bigger than that.
If we’re talking about the hottest risers on our yet-to-be-determined celebrity-athlete power couples list, Dunne and Skenes are clearly the choice. As far as who’s No. 1, it’s absolutely still Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.Livvy Dunne signs autographs after the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers at PNC Park.

But we fully respect Fillipponi having Skenes back. Local folks have to celebrate their own, and the fact that Dunne and Skenes can even be in that conversation shows their meteoric rise this summer.
