Skammentary: Within the television series Community, "Getting Rid of Britta" is co-written by Vaughn Miller (played by Eric Christian Olsen) & Pierce Hawthorne (played by Chevy Chase) after the acrimonious end of Vaughn's brief coupling with Britta Perry (played by Gillian Jacobs). The song is performed, with Britta in the audience, by Vaughn's never-named reggae band, of which Pierce is briefly a member. After Pierce defies Vaughn, prompting an astonished Britta to ask, "Pierce, did you just defend my honor?," Pierce is expelled from the band. Vaughn later writes a song defaming Pierce.
Below: the eponymous Britta Perry (played by Gillian Jacobs).
