Australian breakdancer Raygun became a global sensation after her performance in Paris at the 2024 Olympics went viral.
Raygun’s iconic moves have also seemingly captured the interest of Jimmy Fallon, who mocked her on his NBC chat show, The Tonight Show on Monday night.
In the clip, Jimmy discussed Raygun’s headline-dominating break dance routine, stating: “Breakdancing made its Olympics debut and everybody is talking about the competitor from Australia, Raygun.”
A clip of her routine then played as he recalled how “she actually received zero points for that”, as the audience erupted into laughter.
“You have to wonder where Raygun is right now,” Jimmy asked, before comedian Rachel Dratch burst on stage, dressed in Raygun’s Olympic attire.
The Saturday Night Live actress mimicked Raygun’s routine, with Jimmy hilariously bopping his head to the beat.
Rachel’s take on the routine left Jimmy and the audience in stitches as Rachel did her version of her infamous kangaroo hop and sprinkler moves.
Australia’s breakdancing contender’s real name is Rachael Gunn, 36, from Hornsby.
She garnered worldwide attention after awkwardly bursting a few bizarre moves on the dance floor, displaying a much lower skill level than many of her competitors.
Despite Rachel’s lack of skill, she was dubbed “the Queen of Australia” in a new viral video shared to Facebook by comedians The Inspired Unemployed.
In the clip, she danced down the street with the duo, showcasing the skills that made her a global sensation.
During her Olympics run, Raygun competed in three qualifying rounds on the 14th day of the games but ultimately scored no points against any of her three rivals.
Nevertheless, she is Australia’s top-ranking breakdancer and a creative arts researcher specializing in “the cultural politics of breakdancing” at Sydney’s Macquarie University.
