I loved her, yes other breakdancers were better, but so what, she wasn't horrible and I feel like she embodies the Olympic creed: "The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well."

She gave it her all, she did it with the most confidence and most importantly brought attention to the new sport introduced at the Olympics whilst entertaining the entire world.
