As a gamer and a longtime follower of sports, entertainment, and pop culture, I can’t help but feel excited about the rise of Rachael “Raygun” Gunn. Despite her zero-point performance at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, she has proven to be an undeniable force that captivated the world.
In case people were unfamiliar with Rachael “Raygun” Gunn before the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, they certainly learned about her afterwards. The 36-year-old Australian professor garnered a lot of attention when her passionate breakdancing act resulted in zero points and an early exit from the competition. However, it appears that Gunn’s career is now soaring to new heights, which could open up more possibilities for her in the future.
After facing an outpouring of support amidst trolling, Variety claims that Rachel Gunn is said to have joined Born Bred Talent. This news comes after whispers about her potential participation in the UK reality show “I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!” for its eleventh season.
Making an appearance on a celebrity TV show can undeniably act as a springboard for a career, opening up additional chances. Given that she is said to have agents now, it wouldn’t surprise me if television executives would compete to have her appear on shows like “Celebrity Big Brother,” “The Masked Singer,” and others that showcase talent and intellect, where audiences might be intrigued by her personal narrative.
Beyond the notorious Olympic moment that’s become fodder for jokes on “The Tonight Show” and other digital platforms, I’m intrigued by the story of her life leading up to and following those events. Incidentally…
Even though I’m a big fan of Rachel Dratch on shows like “Second City” and “Saturday Night Live,” now that Rachael Gunn has an agent, maybe she could take a turn at parodying herself in future skits? It seems like these parodies are happening regardless of how she feels about it, so having her representation would be beneficial and potentially secure a few roles for her.
I was surprised to learn this.
I’m not sure about anyone else, but I know that I for one would love to eventually watch a Raygun documentary with my Netflix subscription. Just to get a telling of the events from start to finish to hear her side of the story, as well as anyone else who was there along the way.
It’s hard not to speculate that Rachel Gunn could be the next athlete to star in a feature film like “Eddie The Eagle”. While their stories may not be identical, they both share the commonality of being underdogs whose qualifications for the Olympics were remarkable achievements in themselves. If a movie about her were released today, I suspect there would be quite a queue of people eager to watch it, and perhaps some enthusiastic kangaroo-style hops from the audience.
The question arises as to how long the world might continue being captivated by Raygun. Just as the internet was enamored with Hailey Welch, known for her role as “Hawk Tuah,” and some felt she overstepped when capitalizing on her fame during a Zach Bryan concert, causing a perceived backlash, could a similar situation occur with Rachael Gunn if she attends multiple events and television shows? Only the passing of time will reveal the answer.
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but get excited about the upcoming TV lineup in 2024, and I find myself daydreaming about potential shows where our beloved character Raygun might make an appearance. Among these possibilities, my heart skips a beat at the thought of her gracing the dance floor as a contestant on Season 33 of Dancing With The Stars. With another well-known Olympic athlete already part of the cast, I’m keeping all my fingers crossed for this dream to come true!
