Derrick Barry has a unique job: He's a Britney Spears impersonator.

The celebrity lookalike recently appeared on the talk show “This Morning” to talk about his career that has amassed him nearly half a million dollars so far.

Ruth Langsford asked,

What do you do with your boy bits and things?

Yep, she asked the question on everyone's mind. Barry explained he “tucks” everything away to squeeze into the pop star-inspired outfits.

He said,

It's made to look perfect. I don't want to give too much away, it's like a magician. There's a lot of smoke and mirrors happening here.

Barry, who prefers to go by his given name, credits his good genes for his Spears-like appearance, swearing he has not altered any part of his body with plastic surgery.

Instead, he simply crafts his look using makeup, a process taking up to 90 minutes.

Now, Barry has more than 26,000 followers on Instagram. Granted, that is a lot less than Spears' 4.7 million, but it's still fairly impressive.

And once you see his impressive impersonation, you'll get why.

Check him out below.

Barry mainly performs as the famous singer and has a residency at Share Nightclub in Las Vegas.

Without makeup, you'd never guess he's a Britney impersonator.

But with makeup, he looks exactly like his pop star idol.

Sometimes, it's impossible to even tell him apart from Britney.

He was featured on "RuPaul's Drag Race" and "America's Got Talent."

And he's made thousands of dollars doing what he does best...

...bein' Britney.

Yep, they're basically twins.
