14 DAY TRIAL // One of Jimmy Fallon’s most hilarious skits is the so-called Lip-Sync Battle that sees him duking it out with whatever guest he happens to have on the show at the moment. It usually sees them perform 3 songs of their own choice each, after which a “winner” is named.
Last night, there was no one winner, there were three: in honor of the biggest sporting event in television, the Super Bowl 2015, Fallon put together the most epic Lip-Sync Battle so far. And it was absolutely hilarious.
Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart can be seen next in the buddy comedy “Get Hard,” in which the former plays a guy who’s about to go to prison and who, knowing he wouldn’t last a day inside, hires the latter to teach him how to get tough.
The trailers released so far weren’t exactly promising, but if there’s one thing that can save this movie, that’s the chemistry between the two leads – which, by the way, is also apparent in their interactions during the Lip-Sync Battle.
Ferrell kicked things off on a very high note, with a super fierce and hilarious take on Beyonce’s “Drunk in Love,” down to her sensual dance routine on the beach, in the official music video. Fallon followed it up with Kelly Clarkson’s “Since You’ve Been Gone,” and Hart slowed things down a bit with John Legend’s “All of You,” which, yes, he dedicated to Ferrell.
Round 2 was even more amazing, complete with glitter, a surprise guest appearance by Drew Barrymore, who helped Fallon recreate the iconic dance scene from “Dirty Dancing,” and a rousing cover by Hart of Katy Perry’s “Roar.”
It was a blast, but you don’t have to take my word for it. Here it is:
