A substitute teacher in Texas found himself in hot water after hosting an unexpected karaoke session with students, performing a rendition of Britney Spears’ hit, “Toxic.” In an incident that could only be described as surprising, the unnamed teacher from Bowie High School brought a karaoke machine from home and decided to entertain the kids with his performance on December 3, just a day after Spears celebrated her 40th birthday.
The Performance
According to local news reports, the performance included live singing and a dazzling strobe light display. However, it didn’t take long for school officials to intervene. A spokesperson for the school district mentioned that the teacher was dismissed after the first period for not adhering to the district’s guidelines. They humorously noted, “I’ve heard worse Britney covers, but the lights are a bit much.” Thankfully, no students were harmed during the event, but the choice of song raised eyebrows—its sultry lyrics might not be the best fit for a classroom setting.
Aftermath and New Opportunities
The district clarified that the teacher was a registered substitute who had gone through the proper visitor check-in process, albeit without a formal badge. After being relieved of his duties, he quickly found another gig at Austin High School, and rumor has it he even managed to perform one more song before leaving. With a catalog as vast as Britney’s, there are plenty of crowd-pleasers he could have chosen from.
