She made a fool of herself and the country. I have no doubt there are hundreds of others who would have loved the opportunity and taken it seriously.

[@ldownunderl2370]

I cant believe there are some people defending her performance. It was such an embarrassment to Australia and has completely overshadowed the efforts of the rest of the team who put in such an outstanding effort. Now she is looking to blame others and even tried using the misogyny card. Stop trying to play the victim and take a look in the mirror.

[@joebloggs8900]

It looked like something out of a kath and Kim sketch

[@wyattfamily8997]

There is a sketch from some years ago by the "Kath Day Night" character that is amazing in its similarity.

[@joybodelay9679]

Gave your all? Then you were not at Olympic competition level to be there, with the rest of the world.

Embarrassment to Australia

[@anitafarrell609]

Absolutely she is. Who tf is responsible for her actions.

[@wyattfamily8997]

@@anitafarrell609 I understand she was selected by a panel, check out who was on that panel.

[@GreenTara1234]

And an insult to Kangaroos ☺️💖

[@joebloggs8900]

Thanks for embarrassing australia with the sham routine

[@Ifyouarehurtnointentwasapplied]

Such a discrace taking the funds and place from the actual fit and capable dancers in Australia the deflection is very telling

[@sagemagus126]

She definitely deserves to be investigated for manipulating the selection process. Whoever is involved, ban and fine them

[@anitafarrell609]

She took the place of someone that would have tried to gain a place for competition and a win.

[@R2D2inAustralia]

Ahhh playing victim and tugging heart strings won’t change the cringe factor. Last narcissist i knew wanted to be called by his nick name. Play silly games , win silly prizes and own your mistakes. There were talented young kids that missed out on a life changing opportunity.

[@mibellasilvia]

Narcissist lady who took someone else’s chance to represent Australia fairly in breaking at the Olympic Games. Australia deserves a public apology from the selection committee that facilitated this dance tragedy 🎭. An investigation should begin into all the parties involved in the waste of public resources used to send Raygun to Paris🧐

[@wyattfamily8997]

Check out who was on the selection panel.

[@hmhmhmpandaaa8575]

NO POINTS IN BREAKING YOU SAY ?? NONE FOR YOU 🤣🤣🤣

[@axeman2638]

I saw somewhere that she ran the selection committee and that her husband was the coach, and that she denied funding for others who were more qualified.

[@SepsMahn]

She needs REAL friends in her life to stop embarrassments like this to come into the light

[@gilthorn3430]

Thank you, Raygun, for all the laughter you brought to the world... ❤😂❤😂

[@anman7777]

She has my vote for Australian of the year 🤣❤

[@Just_Be_The_Ball]

Wouldn't surprise me if she got it to be honest

[@alanmorris7669]

She knows absolutely nothing about breaking. It's a type of dance you have to be born to. It originated in the South Bronx of New York City.

[@WilliamLytle-is9zb]

All the people who laughed at me???? that's support in your mind how sad !!!!!

[@user-iu4vv6hu7t]

Deport to NZ

[@anitafarrell609]

She should stay wherever she is, I don't think NZ would want an embarrassment like her.

[@Matt-yv2sr]

Is she a kiwi?

[@RJDPropertyMaintenance-iz7hd]

No she is not , we don’t want her

[@cathywillis2644]

Lefties losing it 😂😂

[@Ric_Aus]

Embarrassment to Australia. Boooooooo!!!!!! 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 Disrespect to Australian citizens!!! Waste of time, money, effort… Sad!!

[@Matt-yv2sr]

Shes more of a national embarrassment that albo!🤦🏼‍♂️

[@hankcuccina5260]

It is the people who selected her that should be held accountable. If nothing else it was very funny ,in a cringe worthy way..

[@JTW3159]

free trip to europe what a joke

[@wyattfamily8997]

And did her "Coach" husband go too.?

[@alwilliams8882]

Lol let the body language panel decide.

[@Matt-yv2sr]

Back to Centrelink raygunn you embarassed the nation 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤗

[@BeverleyDunstall]

How did you get selected for the team? There must be someone better qualified in this sport judging on your performance.

[@wyattfamily8997]

Check out who was on the selection panel.

[@mysteryexchange4192]

Didn't she rig it so her and her husband\Coach got to represent Australia?. The evidence is clear she was definitely not the best choice to represent Australia plenty of videos showing way better Aussie Break dancers follow the money something not right.

[@clintdelaney4194]

Money back please

[@Just_Be_The_Ball]

She made David Brent look like a pro.

[@johannabaldwin6652]

I don’t like it at all

[@dansarg]

They say laughter is the best medicine, so thanks Raygun I'm feeling so much better!

[@prn_97_]

imprison here

[@janbarto6362]

It’s took me one minute and three seconds to switch video off 😫🤢

[@wyattfamily8997]

Surely a "performance" that didn't get even ONE vote in several competitive "dances" should surely be open to valid criticism. I'm not a devotee of break dancing but I find it hard to believe there wasn't a more "competitive" dancer available in the whole of Australia.

[@alwilliams8882]

Phil collins...i cant dance.

[@barrybarry5803]

Was her "breakdance" skit in a new "Joy" or "Fun" category?

[@richardwelch4380]

Let's hold our Olympic swim team to the same standards and see how that goes, DEI works well I guess.

[@bigshowdownunder8969]

That was embarrassing for me as an Aussie,it's the Olympics, not a badly done tik tok video,how?

[@janbarto6362]

Who is paying your vacation in Europe ?!?!🤔

[@RachaelTownsend74]

I don't know why the people that choose who goes to the Olympics picked her to represent us aussies when there is a lot more people who are great dancers here it really is embarrassing for us 😂😂

[@AntonioAleman-ob4py]

The Olympic judges gave her 0 votes. Aussies on their couches gave her 0 votes. The world gave her 0 votes. Yet we are all been labelled for commenting that this individual had no talent in break dancing, when the only thing that is apparent is that we all witnessed vicarious embarrassment.

[@squidjames7735]

hubby gave her 10, mum gave her 10, dad gave her 10, she gave herself 10. she is the greatest. judges were wrong. lol

[@headcrabbed7796]

You are FAMOUS! Everyone remembers you.... Nobody else ❤❤

[@kerriferguson2023]

And is that the aim of Olympic Games representation?

[@deanpd3402]

You probably should watch Chariots of Fire and get a better idea of what the Olympics are all about.

I smell a humiliation ritual. OH! And by the way.... this whole Raygun sharade is just to detract from the fact the world is on fire. Get saved ya'll!! John 3:16 The rapture is soon!!

[@deanpd3402]

The Raygun charade is part and parcel of the Olympic charade, which was part and parcel to what is going on in the UK and across the western world.

[@user-yr4mo3iz4d]

Spud gun is pushing for hobby horsing at 2028. She is also organising the trials. Dual Olympian you watch.

[@LukeHare]

? Did our taxes pay for that

[@wyattfamily8997]

About $200,000 I think.

An Australian hero

[@adamlipz]

Nobody should blame her for this. She would have had to go through trials to be on the Australian brake dancing team. However, she got into this position is the embarrassment. If her dancing was not the best, then she should not have been there. I do have to say from what i saw of her performance that she should have been there.

[@deanpd3402]

It was woeful.
