Kristen Bell mocks gender gap in funny Huffington Post video

Do you need a funny-because-it’s true laugh today?

The viral, mock-company film starring Kristen Bell could make you snort morning coffee out your nose because of its truthful absurdity about workplace sexism.

Bell satirizes the gender gap with a short film highlighting the benefits of "Pinksourcing" —  a way to maximize output while cutting costs by hiring women.

“Why outsource all of your production to far away countries like India, China and Narnia when we have the cheapest and the best workforce right here in the good ol’ US of A: women,” says Bell, now starring in NBC's “The Good Place” with Ted Danson.

Consider:

• You only have to pay "the cheapest and best workforce" 77 cents on the dollar.
• Women rarely ask for a raise or complain about working conditions.
• Plus, women smell nice and bring baked goods to the office.

The share is the first episode in a new Huffington Post series, “Celebs Have Issues,” where celebrities use comedy to raise awareness.
