Raygun could be set to cash in on her newfound viral fame.

The Australian dancer, whose real name is Rachael Gunn, competed in this year's Olympics in the breakdancing - but sadly she scored zero points.

Her performance quickly went viral for the unique dance moves, one being the infamous kangaroo hop.

Speaking out after the 36-year-old scored nil, a breakdancing judge at the Olympics insisted that she didn't do terribly but simply that her competitors were better.

Judge MGbility explained: "Her competitors were just better but it doesn't mean that she did really bad. She did her best."

While Raygun didn't get the score she'd hope for, it's thought that she could now make the big bucks newfound stardom.

Should she land any endorsement deals with huge companies like McDonald's, Raygun could reportedly rake in as much as $500,000 per deal.

Now there's rumors that she could land a huge TV deal after quietly signing with an Australian talent agency.

While she could be in for a host of exciting new opportunities, not everything that's come with Raygun's viral fame has been positive.

In fact, some of the comments she's received have been so negative that Raygun was forced to issue a statement and described the hate she has as 'devastating'.

"I really appreciate the positivity and I'm glad I was able to bring some joy into your lives, that's what I hoped," she said in an Instagram video posted on August 15.

Raygun continued: "I didn't realise that would also open the door to so much hate, which has frankly been pretty devastating. But I went out there and had fun.

"I worked my butt off preparing for the Olympics and I gave it my all, truly. And I am honored to have been part of the Australian team and part of Australia's breaking debut.

"What the other athletes have achieved is just phenomenal."

Raygun went on to finish her statement by asking the media to refrain from 'harassing my family, my friends, the Australian breaking community, and the broader street-dancing community'.

UNILAD has contacted representatives for Raygun for comment.
