Australian breakdancer Rachael "Raygun" Gunn, 36, gained widespread attention during the Paris Games, where she represented Australia in the first Olympic breaking event. Her performance went viral on social media, but she has since spoken out about the negative impact of online hate she has received. Gunn expressed appreciation for the positive feedback she received, but stated that the hate has been "pretty devastating".
Hi everyone, Raygun here. I want to begin by thanking everyone who has supported me. I truly appreciate the positivity, and I'm glad I could bring some joy into your lives—that was my goal.
I'm honoured to have been a part of the Australian Olympic team and to be part of breaking's Olympic debut.
I didn't realize that what unfolded in Paris would also open the door to so much hate, which has been pretty devastating.
