There are a million ways for a sport to make its debut at the Olympics, but breaking probably had the most interesting one. Breaking or breakdancing made its official Paris Olympics debut on Friday with Japan's Ami Yusa taking the Gold over 16 other B-girls.

However, the B-girl that stole the show wasn't Nicka, the small Lithuanian woman wearing a durag, but 36-year-old Australian university lecturer Rachael Gunn, better known by her stage name Raygun. As an academic, her research focuses on, yep, breakdancing.

Despite going 0-3 against her opponents and failing to score a single point during the day's event, Raygun has become a viral hit and much-needed source of memes in the backdrop of ridiculous culture war shenanigans on Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter).

For her part though, Gunn has committed to being herself despite the virality. In an interview with the Guardian, the breaker told the outlet "I wanted to move differently, be artistic and creative because how many chances do you get that in a lifetime to do that on an international stage."
