His voice is so sweet. And honestly as lovely as the fact is rape just isn't a career killer. Unless your a serial rapist like Darren Sharper.

Anna Kendrick was great but Krasinski was robbed.

Well, Krasinsky is also the executive producer and if I remember correctly, co-inventor of the concept, so giving the belt to Anna Kendrick was part of being a good host.

We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
This is basically my new favorite show. This would be so easy to make terrible but they got the tone and guests perfect.

Really? Was she better this week? She's been pretty useless thus far, I thought.

Teigen is nearly a black hole of charisma and really the only bad thing about the show. She's obviously hot as hell and looked amazing this last episode, but that's all she's bringing to the table for now. Of course, if she just had a more natural-sounding laugh and was given better material, I'm sure she'd be fine.

Agreed. That's why I was so confused when someone said they brought a lot of entertainment to the show. I just don't see it.

This episode was great, though. I love this silly show, slightly flawed as it is.

She reminds me of how in the '90s, there was always a random, scantily clad kinda dumb bimbo-y co-host on MTV game shows and poo poo. They were basically there for the tits and rear end factor. Jenny McCarthy and Carmen Electra often filled these roles.

I get second hand embarrassment whenever she talks.

It's bizarre, he actually looks like old school Ozzy for a bit and pulls it off with insanely wide open eyes and the make-up/outfit.

I know there are some much smaller names on the show (Stephen Merchant, the Houghs, etc) but so far it looks like celeb friends have used it to one-up each other as hard as they can. The Emily Blunt/Anne Hathaway episode was pure magic and you could just see from everything Anne was doing that she was there to absolutely destroy Emily's performance.

Most of the articles since the show blew up mention how eager some celebs are to come back and do it again and how hard it initially was to do, but I think in the end a lot of famous people would love to take the chance to get to do a lip-sync musical performance and beat one of their friends/rivals.

For example, Mike Tyson wasn't even pretending to lip-sync much but he was going crazy with the dance moves for Push It, and unless Terry Crews pulls off something completely insane I'd bet that Tyson will win that episode. And it was blatantly obvious that Dwayne Johnson had extensively practiced his lip sync to Shake it Off to nail almost every lyric perfectly.

Just for context, this show approached Mike Tyson and asked him what he wanted to do, and he said "I want to lip sync Salt and Pepa's Push It while dressed like them"

"I do not posseth nipples" - Mike Tyson

I don't know why, but that made me giggle like a loon. Loved his Mick Jagger moves.

I don't think I've ever seen someone have as much fun doing something as Terry Crews seemed to be having doing this show. His enjoyment was infectious.

Also, LL Cool J is still fine as hell.

I don't think that really explains anything. I had the same question, and it's still a stupid catchphrase that makes no sense. Who is the "L" he's talking to? Himself?

It's a reference to one of the best Hip Hop songs of all time Childrens Story by Slick Rick. The outro hook is "knock em out the box, Rick."

Also, let's get a title change: Michael Strahan vs. Hoda Kotb.

I had to say, she really went all in, which is the point of Lip Sync Battle. Celebs of all ages are doing songs and routines that are shocking and the end result is only a good thing.
