I just read the ABC version of this article, which has some zingers from the comedian I think are worth quoting:

She said the lawyers told her she was "damaging" breakdancer Rachael Gunn's brand, and joked, "She doesn't need me to do that".

"They also said I wasn't allowed to do the dance, because she owns the kangaroo dance. That one did puzzle me. I mean, that's an Olympic-level dance. How would I possibly be able to do that without any formal breakdancing training?"
