This Britney Spears mashup combines her hit single ‘Work B**ch’ with Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad’s signature catch phrase. The video is mostly footage from Spears’s new music video interspersed with Aaron Paul shouting his favorite word at the appropriate part in the song. This includes small inserts of Breaking Bad scenes with appearances from Bryan Cranston and the classic yellow hazmat suits.
A particularly amazing moment in this Breaking Bad and Britney Spears mashup is when Bryan Cranston’s character says, "Say my name" and a clip of Britney from Crossroads appears and she responds, ‘It’s Britney, b**ch.’ This iconic line was from her song ‘Gimme More,’ which was released in the height of her breakdown in 2008.
