Please welcome our host, LL Cool J.
Welcome to "Lip Sync Battle." You know what it is.
You've seen it on TV, you've seen it online,
you've seen it everywhere, so you know the game is simple.
Two stars lip-sync two songs.
The audience decides who did it the best, okay?
The songs the performers picked
are aimed to psych out their opponent.
They picked songs knowing the audience is looking for a degree
of difficulty, style, lip-sync ability.
We clear?
Right now, here to help me out is our color commentator,
my girl Chrissy Teigen.
She'll be throwing down her totally uncut reactions tonight.
Go, Chrissy.
So, at stake is more than pride, bragging rights,
and showing you have lip-sync swag.
The winner will take home the ultimate trophy...
the lip sync championship belt.
Chrissy, can you show them the grand prize?
Look at this thing. Is that not amazing?
Have you ever seen a belt like this before?
Yeah, get it, yeah. Shine it up.
You guys ready for a battle?
First up, she's a TV star, a movie star.
She's an amazing actress.
Malin Akerman.
Let's meet Malin's opponent.
He is the 1998 English lip-syncing champion,
who has come out of retirement for this one-time match.
Everybody, look way, way up in the sky at Stephen Merchant.
Yeah, right there.
Oh, wow.
Good luck, sweet cheeks. Good luck.
- Good luck, sugar bum. - Oh, my goodness.
Ooh. Ooh.
Ooh, a little gamesmanship.
- Don't call me "sweet cheeks." - Just chill. Just chill, sweet.
Okay...
I like the fake British accent. It's great.
Thank you.
Now, Stephen demanded that he goes first.
Stephen, have a seat in the lounge.
The V.I.P. lounge.
Malin, come on over.
So, Malin.
Yes.
What is the story?
'Cause I heard it's an intense story.
What is the story behind your first pick?
Well, you know, it's funny,
because I was on the plane with Stephen Merchant years back,
and, you know, we were sitting beside each other,
and he had a couple drinks in, and he got a little saucy,
and he started talking [Bleep] to me.
Mm.
And in the middle of our conversation,
he goes, "you know, I want to pour some sugar on you."
I was like, "you want to what?"
Stephen's a freak?
To be fair, I was drunk. I was drunk.
So, what song, exactly, are you gonna do for the people?
Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me."
♪ Love is like a bomb, baby, come on, get it on ♪
♪ livin' like a lover with a radar phone ♪
♪ lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp ♪
♪ demolition woman, can I be your man? ♪
♪ Your man ♪
♪ razzle and dazzle and flash a little light ♪
♪ television lover, baby, go all night ♪
♪ sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet ♪
♪ little miss innocent, sugar me ♪
♪ yeah ♪
♪ come on! ♪
♪ Take a bottle ♪ ♪ take a bottle ♪
♪ shake it up ♪
♪ break the bubble ♪
♪ break it up ♪ ♪ break it up ♪
♪ pour some sugar on me ♪
♪ ooh, in the name of love ♪
♪ pour some sugar on me ♪
♪ come on, fire me up ♪
♪ pour your sugar on me ♪
♪ I can't get enough ♪
♪ I'm hot, sticky, sweet ♪
♪ from my head to my feet, yeah ♪
Thank you.
This is not fair.
It's really not fair at all.
But I was... I didn't realize
we were allowed to use our sex appeal.
You still got your chance.
You still have your chance, Stephen. You can do it now.
Some of that, frankly, young lady, was pornographic.
Yeah.
Your mother's backstage, woman!
I saw her.
She taught me everything I know.
- She... - Oh, yes.
Did you want to pour sugar on her?
Actually, I have... I have everything.
Well, I like it dirty.
My dream came true!
- Don't slip and fall on your sugar, now. Stephen, Stephen, Stephen,
Stephen, Stephen, Stephen.
We're gonna get arrested.
Yeah, we... no, you're gonna get arrested.
Good luck, Stephen.
You was throwing a lot of sugar around there, big boy.
I thought this was a classy show, ll.
I was under that impression, too.
I didn't realize we were dealing with vulgarians.
Stephen...
I could have brought a one-piece catsuit.
Excuse me.
Your pride is on the line, all right?
A little freaky, a little kinky.
Yeah. What's your first song?
Well, as Malin's already hinted,
when people look at me, they think of sex symbol.
Yes.
And they think of my deep, rich, olive skin.
Yes.
So what better choice than Enrique Iglesias' "Hero"?
Let me be your hero.
♪ Would you dance if I asked you to dance? ♪
♪ Would you run and never look back? ♪
♪ Would you cry if you saw me crying? ♪
♪ Would you save my soul tonight? ♪
♪ I can be your hero, baby ♪
♪ I can kiss away the pain ♪
♪ oh, yeah ♪
♪ I will stand by you forever ♪

♪ si pudiera ser tu dios ♪
♪ porque salvarte a ti mil veces ♪
♪ puede ser mi salvaci�n ♪
♪ you can take my breath away ♪
♪ I can be your hero ♪
Good.
Good. Look at him now.
The lights were in my eyes.
I was singing to a woman, right?
No, actually, it was this dude over here
with the lumberjack shirt.
I mean, you really are a Latin lover.
Thank you very much.
Why do you know that?
Uh, well, you know...
Have you been reading my journal again?
Absolutely, I've been all in your journal.
Malin, was that not amazing?
Yeah, it was not amazing, yeah.
I'm just joking.
Stephen and Malin are both off to a great start,
but that's just how I saw it.
Miss Chrissy Teigen, what'd you think?
I mean, on one end, we have the stripper song of the century.
Malin, that was fantastic.
Oh, with the sugar?
Somebody in here has heard that at a strip club.
That's not just me.
I didn't even know...
one of my biggest weaknesses is a Brit speaking Spanish.
Ooh.
And I thought it was pretty good.
All right. See you later, mate.
Come on. Okay.
Okay, so, it's game on
between Malin Akerman and Stephen Merchant.
Stay tuned for more.
"Lip Sync Battle" will be right back.

Welcome back to "Lip Sync Battle."
It's time for round two,
where these fearsome opponents get to pull out crazy moves,
backup dancers, and literally anything they can dream up.
Malin's up first,
so let's check out how she got ready for action.
_
Because Stephen Merchant in real life is a [Bleep] asshole.
He's always talking about all his, like, "Flashdance" moves
that he's got.
And I was like, "you know what, Merchant?"
We're gonna bring it,
and everyone's gonna see what a dick you are
"and how your 'Flashdance' moves are not so flashy after all."
Those fake British people.

Oh, god. Oh, god.
Hey, Stephen, you fake [Bleep] Brit,
I'm gonna [Bleep] bring you down
like a mother[Bleep] brick house, boy.
Oh, my god, it's starting, it's starting!

Thanks.
Dang, you look like you jumped in my closet or something.
Stephen, what did you think of Malin's performance?
Listen, LL.
You know that I am
one of the most fierce lip-sync competitors.
I know. And a veteran of the game.
But fair is fair.
I felt Malin there gave you a run for your own hip-hop flow.
That's why I'm the host.
When it's over, it's over.
Chrissy, what did you think?
She's, like, the most adorable gangster I've ever seen.
She looks like if American Girl dolls
made, like, a thug Samantha.
I love it.
Well, Malin, you go over there with Stephen.
Tell him where he can buy some illegal guns at.
That was dirty, dirty good.
Stay tuned for more Stephen Merchant and Malin Akerman
on "Lip Sync Battle."
♪ Talk dirty to me ♪
Welcome back to "Lip Sync Battle."
The world is about to find out who gets to win
the most coveted championship belt in the universe.
Stephen is about to break out the performance of his life.
Let's see how he plans to one-up his lovely opponent.
Right now, I'm at intensity level 4.
But when I hit that stage, I'm gonna be 4 1/2.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.
But I'm gonna use that nervousness
as an energy that I can feed off,
like a giant tyrannosaurus rex
devouring the rotting corpse of... anxiety.
Does that metaphor work? I feel like it got complicated.
Merchant, you've got this.
Don't think about her. Just think about yourself.
Don't think about all the kids
that laughed and pointed at you at school and said,
"oh, look, here's the giant, lanky freak."
Don't think about what your mother said...
"oh, Steve, you'll never amount to anything."
Focus, enjoy, 'cause it's your time.
Malin, watch out, because I dance like a butterfly
and I sting like a butterfly.

You under-promised and over-delivered.
Yo.
Malin, talk to me.
Talk dirty to me.
I mean, Stephen...
What do you think of the leather chaps?
I like what's happening in between the leather chaps,
first of all.
Is it a sock?
Yo, I...
Do you like that?
I thought it'd be worse.
Now, that... that is...
You know you're on TV, right?
- I know. I'm so sorry. - What did you think?
I don't know.
I had all of these notes written down,
and then it just all went to
honestly, just... just awesome.
You did great.
Malin, fantastic.
I love that song.
But what just happened? I mean, that was amazing.
There's a time before you saw this
and a time after, and you can never go back.
Oh, Steve, have... just have a seat.
Just sit down, and... no, no, not that seat, though,
'cause I sit there, and it's gonna be all moist.
Sit on that seat. Oh.
Stay tuned to see who wins the lip sync championship belt.
We'll find out in a moment.
