I certainly don't think the clips shown were really representative of the whole routine, and you could probably have sliced any of them to look bad.

Quitting break dancing is exponentially easier when you were never a break dancer to begin with.

She sucked. If one of the real dancers did a thing I would understand.

She scored ZERO points in three combined competitions.

She embarrassed herself & insulted all of the other competitors w/ her performance...

She just wanted a free ticket to wherever the Olympics were held, I don't remember and couldn't care less. Anything to get out of Australia.

The fact that breaking is an Olympic sport is ridiculous.

Well it isn’t now.  She was such a joke the IOC has shut it down after a single Olympics.

The fact that she got all the press and basically was making a joke of the sport.

Makes me feel bad for everyone else and she’s just an asshole.

You hear all the stories of sex and hedonism going on in the olympic camps, which makes my sadistic side wonder if anyone tapped that.
If so, were the moves with the lights out as lame?

She was mocking them... Troll level= well over 9000.

She made the “sport” a joke all by herself. That’s impressive.

Interpretive dance is not a sport.

I'm almost certain the whole thing was a tongue-in-cheek commentary on that Olympic event.

I`d hit it... She`d have to do the kangaroo dance naked first though, after that she wouldn`t have to move very much at all...

Did you watch her whole routine?  I did.  She was just plain awkward throughout.

I've seen good breakdancing -- I'm old enough to remember when it first started.  It wasn't something I had any interest in, but at least I could see that the people doing it had some serious athletic agility.  Her?  She looked more spastic than anything else.

It was bad.  The videos weren't any better unfortunately

It's sad that her retirement from something she never did beyond the skill level of a 6th grader in 1984 is actually news.

No matter what she does, no matter how long ago it's been...she should always be greeted with kangaroo pose and laughed at.

I watched all of her routines, I actually watched the whole competition.  She sucked, the freaken Afghani protest girl was better than her and she wasn't good either.  My wife and I were cringing during the raygun performances looking at each other like "oof wtf was that"

How the fuck did breakdancing ever become an Olympic sport to begin with?

She was married to the guy who selected the Olympic team and a bunch of more talented people were passed over for her.

That's not my idea of being a good sport.

If someone put that on their jeep I would laugh.  The other jeep skeletons just look stupid.  That is hilarious.

Brace Yourself Bird...

"RAP Battle" will be an Olympic event in 2028.  

Why do you think Snoop Dog & Flavor Fav were all over the TV this Olympics?

Watch for scoring on presentation & the dis'.  

Remember the Judges will heavily score The Mike Drop which should be straight in vertical in extension with barely any ripple ...
