A retired teacher has found a new lease of life as a rapper.
Yep, while she no doubt spent most of her career telling kids off for their choice of language, Joy France has embraced her true sweary self. And it sounds like this:
The 66-year-old was a guest on Good Morning Britain today (8 August), where she opened up about her journey to becoming a fierce rap battler.
Demonstrating her lyrical skillz, France and her partner took to the stage to show Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway what they could do.

One of her lines included: "You’ll never see me go street, put on a cap and go, 'Yo'."
Genius.
But that wasn't the only line that caught people's attention, there was another, far more x-rated, lyric that somehow made it onto the show.
During the rapper's interview, it cut to a video of her using a computer typing out some rhymes on a computer.

One of which read read: "Words spit & spill, knit a f*****g daffodil."
However, as some viewers spotted, the swearwords hadn't been blurred out... and this was at 8.30am, so way, way before the watershed.
One fan joked: "Has the kid that does the editing gone back to school now?"
Another asked: Should @GMB be banned from showing swear words on screen in the morning?"
"Enjoyed spotting the hidden F-Bomb on this morning's Good Morning Britain," put a third.

I suspect someone will be getting a bit of a telling off right about now.
Despite not loving rap at first, France decided to 'challenge herself' five years ago and jumped straight in.
She first dipped her toe into the waters of rap back in 2018, at a club in Coventry, where she 'stepped into a world she was terrified of'.
And due to her age, France said that she's been turned away by doorman before, who often tell her that she's come to the wrong place and that 'there’s going to be lots of swearing'

To which she replies, 'Yes, it’s going to be me doing the swearing'.
The pensioner told GMB: "I’ve now become part of the scene."
"I wanted to show them that I could give it a go and not make a fool of myself.
"But I’ve discovered that away from the battles it is a beautiful gentle scene, young men in particular, there for each other."
A documentary, called Joy Uncensored, has been made about her journey. It's available to watch here.
