Chloe Fineman is taking a shot at Raygun.
Over the weekend, the “Saturday Night Live” star posted a TikTok in which she did an impression of Australian Rachael “Raygun” Gunn’s bizarre breakdancing routine at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
In the video, Fineman sports an all-green ensemble akin to Gunn’s Olympic tracksuit and proceeds to do an even sillier imitation of the now-viral performance, which includes plenty of Tyrannosaurus rex arms, kangaroo hops and awkward gyrating. But b-girl Fineman also ups the ante with a few of her own “creative” moves.
The 2024 Paris Olympics were the first Olympic Games to include breakdancing (officially known as “breaking”), and Gunn — a 36-year-old professor at Macquarie University in Sydney with a Ph.D. in cultural studies — totally stole the show with a truly bonkers routine that featured moves she made up on her own.
“All my moves are original,” she reportedly said after her performance. She also told The Associated Press that because of her age, she didn’t feel like she could compete physically with her younger competitors.
“I was never going to beat these girls on what they do best — their power moves,” Gunn told the AP. “What I bring is creativity.”
And hey, if Raygun needs a little more inspiration for a few new moves in the future, may we suggest she check out a certain scene from “Napoleon Dynamite.”
