You won't believe what Joe Jonas and Neil Patrick Harris get Britney Spears to do tonight on #BestTimeEver!
Posted by Best Time Ever With Neil Patrick Harris on Tuesday, September 22, 2015

Britney Spears has had some strange encounters in the past, but her most recent ones were all due to Neil Patrick Harris.

The pop star was a guest on the second episode of Harris’ new NBC variety show “Best Time Ever,” in which she came across as being the most arrogant person ever — all for the sake of a prank.

Spears was sent out mic’ed-up to interview some new security guards but the introductions were spiced up by Harris talking in her ear and telling her what to say.

“Hi, it’s Britney, bitch,” the “Slave 4 U” singer said, calling herself “the one and only Britney Spears” when she answered the door, which was not how the unsuspecting victims expected the first meeting with their potential boss to start.

Spears even made one tattooed security guard kiss her hand as he came into the suite for an interview, all while Harris giggled like a naughty school boy behind the scenes with Joe Jonas.

Needless to say, the skit fired up fans on Twitter with one user calling Harris and Jonas a “prank dream team” and another saying the show is “epic.”

“Best Time Ever With Neil Patrick Harris” airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. on NBC.
