Legendary English DJ Fatboy Slim takes credit for Raygun’s controversial Olympic breakdancing routine: ‘I’m quite proud of that one’
As a longtime music enthusiast with a knack for connecting seemingly unrelated dots, I find it fascinating to learn that Fatboy Slim and Rachael ‘Raygun’ Gunn share a peculiar connection. While it’s not exactly a lifelong friendship or collaborative project, the influence of one British DJ’s music video on an Australian breakdancing Olympian’s performance is quite intriguing. It’s like the ripple effect of a pebble thrown into the pond of popular culture!
Fatboy Slim recently disclosed an unexpected link between himself and the contentious Australian Olympic athlete, Rachael ‘Raygun’ Gunn.
On a recent Friday evening, the renowned British disc jockey, aged 61, was featured on The Project to talk about his forthcoming Fatboy Slim Australia Tour.
Elise Elliott enquired about the distinct music videos that Slim had created, to which he playfully claimed responsibility for the provocative Raygun Olympic breakdancing performance.
Elise commented, “Your unique, ironic, and humorous video style is quite renowned. She commended you for popularizing goofy dancing across Australia.
Quentin Cook, also known as Slim, expressed that he felt the dance moves depicted in the 1999 music video for his popular song “Praise You,” which showcased an awkward breakdancing crowd, likely influenced the performance style of Raygun.
‘The Praise You video directly influenced Raygun at the Olympics,’ Slim told the hosts.
‘I’m quite proud of that one.’
Next March, the DJ will take his most popular songs on a tour called “Fatboy Slim Loves Australia” throughout the country.
It follows reports that Rachael Gunn appears to be headed for a career in television.
Following her acclaimed portrayal as Raygun at the breakdancing event of the Paris Olympics, it is said that all three major networks are attempting to secure a contract with her.
According to a source close to the television industry, it’s possible that you might see the 36-year-old scholar featured on popular reality shows during the upcoming year.
According to a source, discussions are ongoing regarding the future of Raygun, one of the world’s most buzzed-about Australians, as several television networks have extended offers to him. (Yahoo Lifestyle)
According to the insider, the networks don’t want to ‘share’ Gunn.
Raygun skyrocketed to global fame following her performance at The Game where she earned no points, as she had lost all three preliminary matches, accumulating a total score of 54 against her, zero in her favor.
Despite her unique act consisting of kangaroo hopping and snake-like movements failing to impress at the international tournament, shows like “Dancing with the Stars” are intrigued by the potential talent she might bring to their series.
