Raygun breaks silence on Jimmy Fallon sketch after American TV star brutally mocked Australian breakdancer following viral Olympic Games performance
Raygun has shared her thoughts on Jimmy Fallon's viral sketch mocking her breakdancing performance as the Australian breakdancer gave her first TV interview since her Olympic Games disaster.
Raygun, whose real name is Rachael Gunn, became an overnight sensation for her comical routine at the 2024 Paris Olympics, which became the event's most talked-about moment.
The likes of Adele and Snoop Dogg shared their thoughts on the performance, while American TV star Fallon performed a sketch mocking Raygun on his late night show.
Fellow US comic Rachel Dratch interrupted Fallon's opening monologue, entering the stage dressed in the same Australian Olympic team uniform Raygun wore for her terrible performance, before mimicking the 37-year-old's quirky moves.
Speaking on The Project, Raygun said she has not seen the sketch and has 'mixed emotions' about the attention she received from Fallon.
'I don't know whether to, like, hug him or yell at him!' she said. 'Because what a platform he ended up giving me like, honestly!
'I haven't actually seen the sketch 'cause I don't think I'm in a place yet to watch it, but I will watch it at some point. And, you know, a few different people have kind of explained it to me and given me different takes on it.
'But...I'm still in the process of being able to describe how I feel about all this stuff because it kind of feels like a really weird dream that I've been having that I'm gonna wake up from at any moment. Like, what is life right now?!'
Raygun has responded to Jimmy Fallon's viral sketch which mocked her breakdancing
The Australian was brutally taunted by the American TV host after her Olympics performance
During the tell-all interview with Waleed Aly, Raygun said she knew that she was in for a turbulent time after receiving a concerning message from an Australia Olympic Committee official after her routine.
'As soon as I finished, you know, my rounds, my media liaison from the AOC said, "Oh, there's a bit of a storm brewing on social media. You might want to go off socials,"' she said.
'I was like, "OK." I didn't understand the scale of it. I did preview some comments and I was like, "Oh, no," and this kind of sick feeling started, started coming out.
'I was like, "Oh, goodness! What has happened?"'
Raygun admitted that she has not watched her performance back, as she addressed the 'tough' backlash.
'I haven't watched it back, no. That's not unusual for me, though. I'm not great at watching back my battles,' she shared.
'It's still gonna take some time. I think I've seen little bits and pieces, but, yeah, I'll watch it eventually.'
Amid claims she could nab a string of TV offers, Raygun said she has no desire to remain in the spotlight and plans to take a step back from competing.
'I don't think I'll be competing for a while. Not really wanting to be in the spotlight, breaking, competing. But I... You know, it's been nice,' she shared.
She also believes that the majority of the negative reaction stems from a lack of understanding of breaking from the general public.
'A lot of the responses, though, is also just due to people not being very familiar with breaking and the diversity of approaches in breaking,' she went on.
'It was so fantastic that the next day the judging chair, MG, came out and explained that in the breaking community what I did actually wasn't very shocking.
'You know, it's just a different approach in breaking. You have the athletic-style breakers and you also have the more artistic-style breakers and all of them are very valid.'
Raygun then said the anger and 'vitriol' directed towards herself, her husband and her family had been 'pretty alarming' as she slammed the wild conspiracy theories.
She also clarified how she secured her spot on the Olympic team as she poured cold water over the wild claims, insisting she hadn't known any of the judges previously and earned her position.
Raygun went on to reveal she has sought out mental health support and completely took herself off social media in the wake of the online storm.
'Fortunately, I got some mental health support pretty quickly and I also went off social media, I went off the internet,' she candidly shared.
'But it's pretty up-and-down, but it's also just hard to process it all, honestly. Like, it's just still pretty hard to process.
'It's been a pretty wild ride I'm not going to lie, I definitely have had my ups and downs, my good and bad days.'
