8 of TikTok Star Olivia Ponton’s Most Viral SI Swimsuit Photos

The model made her magazine debut in 2022 in Montenegro.

Olivia Ponton became a TikTok sensation in just a few months after she began regularly posting fashion, lifestyle and relatable content in 2020. She made her SI Swimsuit debut in 2022 and added model to her resume filled with various digital content-creation gigs.

“Definitely have patience and be very consistent,” she said about her success on the platform where she has 8 million followers. “Plus, do stuff that you genuinely love because if you gain any traction in doing something that you don’t love, you’ll be stuck doing what you don’t love and then that becomes a very visual pool of doing stuff that doesn’t make you happy. So be yourself, do what you love, and do the work.”

The 20-year-old added that consistency and authenticity—posting on good days as well as bad days—is key.

Here are eight of our favorite photos from her Montenegro shoot with James Macari in 2022.
