Gunn failed to score a single point during the inaugural women’s breakdancing event.

The university lecturer performed moves such as kangaroo hopping, a snake slithering and a ‘sprinkler’.

She was unable to win over the judges but did gain a lot of attention online.

It did start a debate between viewers and fans who questioned how she had qualified for the Olympics.

She was backed by the likes of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Australia‘s Olympic chief Anna Meares.

They claimed that she represented the Australian spirit of “having a go”.

Since her efforts, Gunn has stayed out of the public eye but has attracted interest from the Australian cricket team.

The team’s official social media account reposted a satirical article about Gunn.

It may not be the only offer that Gunn receives following her performance at the Olympics.

Public relations expert Max Markson believes that she has an “enormous brand”.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, he said: “Her reputation in Australia isn’t that great, but she is famous across the world.

“She has an enormous brand.

“I don’t think everyone else in other countries is conscious of how Australians feel about her.

“I think Australian marketers will be avoiding her for that reason, but there will be somebody in this country who will go for it.

“She will get international offers from sports shoe brands, like Adidas or Puma, food companies like McDonald’s or KFC, electric cars like BYD, and she will get a phone company like Telstra or Optus or Vodafone.

“There will be other international companies that want her as well.”
