Olympic breakdancer Raygun apologizes to the entire breakdancing community for her controversial performance at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

On Wednesday (Sep. 4), the Olympic breakdancer Rachel Gunn, who goes by her b-girl name Raygun, sat down for an interview with the Australian talk show The Project to discuss the blowback she experienced following her controversial performance in Paris. Host Waleed Aly read a few of the criticisms off to Raygun, including one from Australian rap pioneer Spice that blamed Raygun for pushing the breaking scene back "into the dark ages."

"Yeah, look it is really sad to hear those criticisms," Raygun began around the nine-minute mark. "I am very sorry for the backlash that the community has experienced, but I can't control how people react. Unfortunately, we just need some more resources in Australia for us to have a chance to beat world champions. Historically, unfortunately, we haven't had the best track record of winning world championships, so I don't think that's just on me."
