Judge Explains Why Breakdancer Raygun Got 0 Points At Olympics

A judge at the Paris Olympics has explained why viral sensation Rachael “Raygun” Gunn got 0 points for her performance.

The Australian swimmer rose to fame after the Olympics, but possibly not for the reason she wanted…

The 36-year-old appeared to give the performance her all, spinning on her head, rolling around the floor on her shoulders and throwing her arms in the air.

She had a unique style of breakdancing, with the internet having mixed feelings about her performance….with fans commenting on her “kangaroo hop” move.

Talking to Sky News, the athlete admitted:

“I was never going to beat these girls on what they do best — their power moves,”

“What I bring is creativity.”

One Olympics fan went to X to share their feelings:

“I want Raygun, the 36 year old Australian breakdancer possessed by the spirit of Julia Stiles in Save the Last Dance, to know that I am now her biggest fan and she should never stop doing whatever it is she’s trying to do,”

Another added: “Obsessed with Raygun because I identify with the level of dorkiness she projects.”

While other viewers weren’t so impressed:

“If this Raygun lady turns out to be a comedian who somehow blagged her way through qualifiers and all the way to the Olympics, and was bad on purpose, it will be one of the greatest bits ever achieved,”

Another said: “It’s surprising that Raygun from Australia is the top breaker. The kangaroo move — how did she make it this far?! She should’ve swapped the kangaroo for a banana to really stand out. What is this? Seriously, is breakdancing really an Olympic event?”

Taking to Instagram, the star shared: “Don’t be afraid to be different, go out there and represent yourself, you never know where that’s gonna take you,”
