An oral history of Tom Holland's sensational 'Lip Sync Battle' performance
https:/
Today I learned there is a "Tom Holland Umbrella Law": "Once you watch it, you must share". So I do.
I watched this several times over the years, and I still enjoy it a lot!
This "oral history" adds even more to the legend, well presented by Ashley Spencer:
And then came Tom Holland's "Lip Sync Battle" mashup of Gene Kelly and Rihanna, or what is essentially two minutes and 10 seconds of perfection in every sense of the word. Ditching his initial top hat and suit to grind on a literal umbrella and perform a sensual routine in a pleather leotard, red lipstick, and chin-length wig, the British actor, then 20, obliterated gender constructs and defied the expectations of how a newly minted action star should market himself.
