Mary Poppins Quits is a clever Funny or Die skit starring American actress Kristen Bell. Although best known for her roles in 'Veronica Mars' and 'Frozen,' she morphs into Julie Andrews' famous character as if she were made for the role. With an impeccable impression, she sings about her issues with minimum wage in the hilarious Mary Poppins Quits video.
Instead of teaching the Banks' children about cleaning up, taking medicine and other more important life lessons, the Mary Poppins Quits skit relays a bunch of information about the rights of workers. Even though she boasts magical powers, Mary Poppins only scrapes in $7.25 an hour. Hilarious and clever, Kristen Bell looks and sounds just like the titular character in the Mary Poppins Quits Funny or Die video.
