She beat those other break dancers at comps to get nominated. She didn’t get selected out of no where.

You right, her husband was in the selection pannel. Not out of no where

He should have recused himself from judging a comp his wife was in but there is no definitive proof he displayed favouritism.

She failed to score when she actually tried, and you can see the difference in those attempts, and then did something completely different that we're talking about.

Honestly her performance and the French pole vaulter's.... pole are the only things notable about this years Olympics.
