Viral Olympic Breakdancer Raygun Calls Online Hate ‘Devastating’

Raygun, who’s Olympic breakdancing has gone viral, is reacting on Instagram to the ‘devastating’ online hate she’s gotten over her performance in Paris. The Australian native, real name Rachael Gunn’s performance spawned multiple parodies, including Rachel Dratch's appearance on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,' as well as from 'Saturday Night Live' stars Chloe Fineman and Chloe Troast.

Her self awareness is non-existent. She's got no idea of her serious limitations in her chosen field. I mean she's 36 not 15. Crazy stuff.

It was terrible and she needs to accept that. I can’t sing and I’m not going to get upset if someone tells me the truth. It was awful

[giuseppedoodiekins]

This is an excellent instance in which we don’t need to see the receipts. We all saw you and that was enough

[Juan_rivera]

No more devastating than the people you stepped on to get to the Olympics

[tulumbordon]

Constructive criticism is not hate. Get over yourself

[brandiguarino]

What was she expecting? She went to the Olympics and can’t break dance

[Musicreach]

What did you think was going to happen jumping around like a complete fool 😂

[terrancejohnson]

As a black man this is not break dancing this is getting tased by the police

[RaphieS-xk]

No one's hating dear you were so bad, it was hilarious.

[giuseppedoodiekins]

What’s devastating is that your husband got you to the Olympics and took the opportunity away from other more talented dancers

Embarrasses her country at the Olympics. Now asks for privacy. Must be from the Harry & Megan playbook.

[nodiggity]

What an embarrassment to the Olympics.

[Firemud]

It's not hate. People are criticizing your performance and questioning based on your performance and how you got to the Olympics in the first place. Hate is a strong word and should not be thrown around like this.

[JLive-jtjc]

Is she serious? Constructive criticism is not hateful. That was not breakdancing. It is disrespectful to consider herself an athlete. Get rid of the category if it will become a parody.

[bradspringer]

So now she is a victim of "hate"?
I saw more people laughing at her than being hate filled. How did she NOT expect to be ridiculed after that performance?

[tiberiajames]

Well I guess they never seen break dancing in Australia. She was right, she was just having fun. Insult to breakdancers.

[dirtydawg-]

Bad. Really really bad. Thats more like a clown dancing.

[the-trustees]

NOBODY hated "RayDone" until she accused us of HATING HER! And we found out that sge was only there by gaming the Australian Olympic system to get there. 😠

[clinteastwood]

Honestly, Raygun's spectacularly ignominious performance (that landed her ZERO points in the competition) eclipsed the news of the real Australian athletes winning Olympic medals! It humiliated the country and turned its Olympic athletes selection criteria into a mockery. The Australian Olympic Committee (let alone the Raygun) should be held responsible. The Olympics is not about "participating", it is about "competing and winning". If you don't have athletes who can really compete don't waste the taxpayers money and send "goofs" to extended vacations. Save the country the embarrassment and spend the taxpayers money instead on the preparation of qualified future athletes.

TALK ABOUT ZERO SELF AWARENESS!!! There’s NO WAY she thought doing those ridiculous moves WOULDNT be laughed about.
