    Goofy dancing aside, she wasn’t doing herself any favors by dressing up as a zoo keeper.
  • She dances as well as someone with a PhD in dance culture would dance.
  • @pearlskis9741
    Pathetic. Some athletes training hard night and day and she does this? Pathetic.
  • I’m calling it. Raygun will be a top Halloween costume this year. Timing is perfect.
  • @OzLondon-hx8lz
    She invented a new dance category "Cringe" who ever in the Australian Olympic Committee said yes to this should be fired

    As a deaf, it’s like watching a fake sign language interpreter.
  • @ZODAGAWD
    Its not just the kangaroo jumping...its the ENTIRE PERFORMANCE!!!! HORRIBLE!!!
  • @polianapolain
    When I watched her 'perform'' I really thought it was a prank, a JOKE. And the actual dancers would come on afterwards. She's ruined any possibility of having breaking dancing as a permanent sport modality at the Olympics. She embarrassed the whole nation. And she took the spot of a real breaking dancer. Shame on her!

    This is what participation medals get you
  • @Jason-rs6co
    this should never had happened. this is not a school project and you dont get participation awards i dont care how creative she thinks she is. its embarrassing
  • @siyadede
    What does Raygun have on the breakdancing community of Australia that nobody is willing to tell her the truth. I guess as a fellow breaker he didnt want to criticize her but the reason why the world is focusing on her is because she stood out in the worst way and shouldn't have been there...
  • @latinadoll74
    Total disrespect to the culture. As a Bronx New Yorker native, where break dancing originated, this was sickening to watch.
  • @kevindowell6003
    A world that claims a PhD in dance culture as an achievement then attempts to defend low performance…I am speechless
  • @romastrings2526
    Korea has Gangnam Style, while Australia has Raygun Style.
  • @sylvie38344
    That woman made a fool out of herself. I have seen kids having a tantrum with better moves.
  • shes like a drunk aunt dancing by herself at a wedding, during a slow song, and a bunch of married couples are dancing around her.....
