Rachel ‘Raygun’ Gunn has clarified claims over her breakdancing future and claimed that she is ‘not retiring’ after stating on Wednesday that she no longer wanted to compete in the Olympics after receiving backlash online.
When pressed on reports that had emerged on Wednesday over whether she was retiring on Channel 10, she said: ‘Raygun’s not retiring!’
‘It’s different in breaking culture, I’m still going to dance and go to community jams and get down and dance and enter community dance.
‘But in terms of elite competitions and the Olympics – which by the way, breaking is not in the next Olympics – it kind of turned into a really big thing today. I’ve been getting some really lovely messages from people… But I’m still going!’
‘It’s not me that’s retiring guys! It’s Ray Hadley! He’s the one that’s retiring!’ she added tongue-in-cheek.
