McKenna, who as been dubbed a "breath of fresh air" by fans of the show, recently left hosts Dermot O'Leary and Alison Hammond in stitches as she rapped about "pimping up" her pastry.
To the delight of viewers, she rapped: "I'm pimping up my pastry man! I’ve got some pie going on, I’ve got a lil bit of egg wash, we’re making this yo, yo, yo."
