It was the most memorable dancing - and achievable for all - so it made me laugh so hard. Dance can be joyful too - ya know. If it feels good - who cares what others think? Follow joy and jumping - like when you were a kid again....life is too short to be too judgy and adulty all the time. Shes a cultural breakthrough leader for sure.

If someone genuinely sings badly I'm like kudos you gave it try well done for trying. But when somone purposefully sings badly to make a point that never sits well emotionally its cringe.

This guy basically nails it when he said she understood the dance intellectually but doesn’t have the physical capability to execute. In breaking YES you have to express yourself uniquely. But you have to funnel it through the foundational movements of the dance! This takes YEARS of practice and dedication. You can’t just hop around like a kangaroo and say “I’m fresh and unique”.

      she turned up to the competition. Sydney, 2023. If the talented women breakdancers had showed up, one of them would have won and got selection. IMO, either the talented people didn't know, didn't have the funds to get to the competition, or weren't interested.

      I'm in agreement that it was an huge embarrassment of a performance. Her being a female has nothing to do with it. She should be ashamed of herself to cry that it is.

      Hear hear! This was not a child from the housos who never had a chance at education and knows no better due to lack of opportunities - she is old enough, well educated enough and presumably intelligent enough to know better and definitely to have done better ... and by "done better" I mean have identified and supported a really talented break dancer to have the opportunity to actually do us proud.

    It's actually really messed up. The skill gap between her and her male counterpart, who was only 16, was an absolute mountain. Watch them both side by side and there's no way you can think this isn't some sick joke to pull a two week taxpayer funded holiday for her and her husband, who happens to be her "coach". I'm not even Aussie but if our country sent an athlete and their coach to the Olympics only to pull THAT performance?
