YouTube celebrity Billy Eichner has a regular show on Funny or Die called ‘Billy On The Street’, where he grabs a celebrity — Debra Messing, Paul Rudd, Lindsay Lohan, etc — and loudly/obnoxiously forces them to confront passers-by with various questions, games and demands.

In this morning’s episode, he has Parks & Recreation and Tina Fey’s Best Friendship star Amy Poehler playing a game called, “That’s Not Pitbull, It’s Amy Poehler”, whereby she runs up to someone wearing the cut-out face of rapper Pitbull, Eichner yells the titular words, and she reveals her tiny, sparkly and delightful head. “BUT YOU THOUGHT I WAS PITBULL!” she shrieks with glee.

The man at 1:30 is your boyfriend.

It’s the second appearance from Poehler, who last year was spotted running around dressed as Mrs. Clause singing Christmas Carols loudly at people and also yelling at them.
