Slight overstatement… break dancing was one of the locally picked sports and the next Olympics had already selected different sports before she performed…

But she is a good example of degrees not equaling skill

It should also be noted that she doesn't have a degree in "performing," as far as I'm aware, she has a degree in "studying the culture" of break dancing. So, we (or at least any of us who haven't read her work) don't actually know if she's good at what her degree is in. We just know that she's not good at performing.
