Tiffany Haddish and Jimmy Fallon lip-sync battle, seriously
Jimmy Fallon challenged guest Tiffany Haddish to a lip sync battle on Thursday's Tonight Show, and while Fallon declared Haddish the winner afterward, you can make up your own mind. Fallon brought the dance moves for Deee-Lite's '90s hit "Groove is in the Heart," and he had props for Post Malone's "Psycho," but Haddish nailed the lip synching on The Lady of Rage's "Afro Puffs" and she called in the special effects and the Roots for her final, probably winning song, James Brown's "Sex Machine." Does there even need to be a winner? Watch below. Peter Weber
