Last night was the season 2 premiere of Lip Sync Battle on Spike. After a super successful inaugaral season, LSB pulled out all the stops with Channing Tatum pitted against his wife, Jenna Dewan Tatum. For a full dynamic hour, these two gorgeous spouses owned that stage. LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen were loving it. And so were we.
Lip Sync Battle only gives us less than 2 minutes of previews for tomorrow night’s show, but it’s a fabulous 2 minutes. Channing Tatum (The Hateful Eight, Magic Mike) and his beautiful wife, Jenna Dewan-Tatum (Supergirl, Witches of East End) battle to see who has the finer faux singing skills. Who will prevail?
The deliciousness that is Lip Sync Battle, returns for a second season on January 7th, and it looks like it’s gonna be crazier than the first. Last season saw Host LL Cool J and Color Commentator Chrissy Teigen have the time of their lives, watching A through D list celebrities strut their stuff while pretending to sing. Some of my favorites were of course, Fallon vs The Rock, Malin Ackerman vs Stephen Merchant, and best of all, the most recent holiday special with Joseph Gordon-Levitt vs Anthony Mackie. This season looks to be completely and utterly bananas!
Last night, one of my guilty pleasures returned for a special holiday show. Host LL Cool J and color commentator Chrissy Teigen got us all into the Thanksgiving, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Three Kings, Chanukkah, New Year’s Day spirit, by having one of the funniest Lip Sync Battles to date! The stars of The Night Before, Seth Rogen, Anthony Mackie, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt were on hand to spread a little cheer, and to make a lot of dirty jokes.
The finale! The show ended with a bang! And money! Last night on Lip Sync Battle, not only did they have the two powerhouses from the hit FOX show Empire, Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson go head to head for the champion belt. They had something new – the two forces combined efforts for a Lip Sync Battle first- a duet between competitors!
Not only that, these two commanded such attention, they got 2 shows in the same night, Part 1 and Part 2. Host LL Cool J and color commentator Chrissy Teigen looked like they were having the time of their lives.
