Why New Zealand can't get enough of infamous Aussie Olympics breaker Raygun - 'we think she's awesome'
'Stop harassing my family': Raygun breaks silence after Olympic Games disaster. The Aussia breakdancer took to social media after all teh hate she received following her breakdancing routine at the Olympics.

New Zealand's Prime Minister has revealed many Kiwis are huge fans of Aussie breakdancing sensation Raygun.

After wrapping up his Lowy Institute foreign policy address in Sydney, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon reflected on some of Australia and New Zealand's most iconic figures and contributions.

After referencing legendary crocodile hunter Steve Irwin, Luxon said Australia has now also 'gifted the world' breakdancer Raygun.


'We are loving her in New Zealand, we think she's awesome,' he said.

Raygun's unique break dancing style went viral after she competed at the Paris Olympics, gaining international attention from American talk show host Jimmy Fallon, singer Adele and now New Zealand's prime minister.

Meanwhile, Raygun - whose real name is Rachael Gunn - has issued a deeply personal message to the world after her disastrous performance at the Olympic Games saw her become a viral sensation.

The Aussie failed to impress the judges in Paris as she writhed around the floor mimicking a snake, hopped like a kangaroo and performed the sprinkler during the inaugural breaking competition.

As a result, she has been widely mocked online while some people spread false and malicious rumours suggesting she benefitted from a flawed selection process.
