Breakdancing Rachael 'Raygun' Gunn announced she would no longer compete after facing severe backlash following her losses in the Paris Olympics, impacting her confidence.
Gunn expressed her disappointment regarding the negative perception of her, stating 'I just didn't have any control over how people saw me or who I was.'
An online petition accusing Gunn of manipulating her Olympic qualification gained 50,000 signatures, although it was removed upon request from the Australian Olympic Committee.
Despite the negativity, Gunn mentioned the support she received from fans, highlighting the positive impact she has had on others: 'You've inspired me to go out there and do something that I've been too shy to do.'
