Shout out to Erik B and Rakim.
- Yes, sir!
- You know what I'm saying?
- You know? Chrissy?
- What?
- What do you feel?
- I... can I be honest?
- Yeah!
- I have no idea what that song was.
- Yeah, that was...
- I never heard it!
I'm sorry,
- but the passion you had...
- That felt strategic there. That felt tactical.
It's all about the passion!
You're about to get a lot of e-mail.
I know! I know!
So, Deon, what was the thinking
behind performing Erik B and Rakim?
Oh, because, man, they were no joke!
They came... they came
for... they came to get down
and they got down and made history.
And that's what I'm here to do tonight!
Yes, sir!
Karrueche...
what'd you think about
Deon's performance?
That was not easy!
It was very fast and Deon was committed,
- so I'm... I'm gonna give you the props.
- Thank you very much!
- Appreciate it.
- You killed it.
Nice! You can head over to the VIP.
Aw, man, Karrueche
brought the claws out,
but Deon ain't taking no shorts.
This one's already epic.
Stay right there 'cause the
battle is about to get hot.
- Ooh. LSB, baby.
- It's LSB, baby.

Lip Sync Battle is back!
Deon Cole has mastered
stand-up and acting.
And now he's out to secure
an LSB championship for himself.
Can he make it a cold
world for Karrueche?
I guess it's time to find out.
I don't want to lose. I want this belt.
I need this belt.
I already carved a place
out on my wall for it.
No, I didn't!
She's my girl!
Very talented. My... my homie.
- Thank you! I love you so much!
- I know!
Anytime we're around each other,
definitely nothing but love, but...
Boo!
There's a strain today.
_
It's like we don't
know each other today,
'cause we are up against each other,
and she has to go down.
Ladies love Cool J!
They don't mess around.
This is great!
It's just a great song.
Even if I lose,
it's still gonna be a
very unique performance
that should go down in
Lip Sync Battle history.

(bleep) that couch.
Karrueche...
was Deon a convincing
Natalie Imbruglia or what?
- What... what you think?
- Yes. I'm convinced.
I am so convinced. I'm still in shock.
When you started throwing stuff,
I was like, "What is going on?"
But you definitely got
some things off your chest.
I don't know what's going in your life,
but amen.
Amen.
That was wicked! That was amazing.
So, Deon... Deon, you
can head over to the VIP.
- Thank y'all. Peace, man.
- Wow.
Thanks, Chrissy.
No doubt.
This battle is so, so good
that now even I am torn.
I need a commercial break, please.
Absolutely. I got you, Chrissy.
When LSB returns,
we'll find out how Karrueche plans
to make sure the belt
goes home with her.
Come on back. It's Lip Sync Battle.
♪ Nothing's fine, I'm torn ♪

LSB returns and Karrueche Tran is
primed and ready to take the stage.
Let's see how she worked her magic
to bring to life an
unforgettable performance.
I come right in?
Yeah.
Let's go from the top!
I've never performed before.
So, to... to...
For me, this is really
breaking out of my shell.
It's doing something
I've never done before.
I chose this artist because I
feel like I relate to her story.
And her rise to success,
and her growth and her strength.
And she's bad-ass.
She's a bad-ass woman, and
I'm a bad-ass woman too.
So I definitely connect with
her, and I connect with the song.
Alright! Time to go to the big stage!
Let's do this!
Deon, I'm going to crush you!
The point where this
all really came together
was me being on that stage
rehearsing with the dancers,
and everybody was watching.
It was just kind of like, "Oh
man, this is really happening."
Deon, I adore you.
I admire you. You're great, but, um...
I'm gonna win. Sorry.
Lord! Have mercy!

Karrueche when she dropped that?
- What were you feeling?

Yes, sir!
Karrueche...
what'd you think about
Deon's performance?
That was not easy!
It was very fast and Deon was committed,
- so I'm... I'm gonna give you the props.
- Thank you very much!
- Appreciate it.
- You killed it.
Nice! You can head over to the VIP.
Aw, man, Karrueche
brought the claws out,
but Deon ain't taking no shorts.
This one's already epic.
Stay right there 'cause the
battle is about to get hot.
- Ooh. LSB, baby.
- It's LSB, baby.

Lip Sync Battle is back!
Deon Cole has mastered
stand-up and acting.
And now he's out to secure
an LSB championship for himself.
Can he make it a cold
world for Karrueche?
I guess it's time to find out.
I don't want to lose. I want this belt.
I need this belt.
I already carved a place
out on my wall for it.
No, I didn't!
She's my girl!
Very talented. My... my homie.
- Thank you! I love you so much!
- I know!
Anytime we're around each other,
definitely nothing but love, but...
Boo!
There's a strain today.
_
It's like we don't
know each other today,
'cause we are up against each other,
and she has to go down.
Ladies love Cool J!
They don't mess around.
This is great!
It's just a great song.
Even if I lose,
it's still gonna be a
very unique performance
that should go down in
Lip Sync Battle history.

- I felt that!
I felt that!
Your emo hands and your emo sweatshirt.
I felt it all!
The couch!
(bleep) that couch.
Karrueche...
was Deon a convincing
Natalie Imbruglia or what?
- What... what you think?
- Yes. I'm convinced.
I am so convinced. I'm still in shock.
When you started throwing stuff,
I was like, "What is going on?"
But you definitely got
some things off your chest.
I don't know what's going in your life,
but amen.
Amen.
That was wicked! That was amazing.
So, Deon... Deon, you
can head over to the VIP.
- Thank y'all. Peace, man.
- Wow.
Thanks, Chrissy.
No doubt.
This battle is so, so good
that now even I am torn.
I need a commercial break, please.
Absolutely. I got you, Chrissy.
When LSB returns,
we'll find out how Karrueche plans
to make sure the belt
goes home with her.
Come on back. It's Lip Sync Battle.

LSB returns and Karrueche Tran is
primed and ready to take the stage.
Let's see how she worked her magic
to bring to life an
unforgettable performance.
I come right in?
Yeah.
Let's go from the top!
I've never performed before.
So, to... to...
For me, this is really
breaking out of my shell.
It's doing something
I've never done before.
I chose this artist because I
feel like I relate to her story.
And her rise to success,
and her growth and her strength.
And she's bad-ass.
She's a bad-ass woman, and
I'm a bad-ass woman too.
So I definitely connect with
her, and I connect with the song.
Alright! Time to go to the big stage!
Let's do this!
Deon, I'm going to crush you!
The point where this
all really came together
was me being on that stage
rehearsing with the dancers,
and everybody was watching.
It was just kind of like, "Oh
man, this is really happening."
Deon, I adore you.
I admire you. You're great, but, um...
I'm gonna win. Sorry.
Lord! Have mercy!

Yes!
I don't even know what
that means honestly.
But I feel like...
Hey, don't try to clean it up.
You know exactly what it means.
I'm like, "That's what I do."
Look at emo Natalie over there.
So... so, Deon...
Deon, what did you feel about
Karrueche when she dropped that?
- What were you feeling?
- There is a god!
- Whoo-hoo-hoo!
- There is a god.
Oh, man! I ain't hear...
I ain't hear one lyric of that song.
It was serious.
Karrueche, you can
go on over to the VIP.
Great job! Make some noise!
Great job!
So, there was a whole lot of rap,
rock, rare form going down tonight,
and when we return, we find
out who takes this home.
You know what I mean?
Chrissy's gonna wrap this
around somebody's waist.
But who's it gonna
be huh? Find out next.
It's LSB.

Welcome back to Lip Sync Battle!
It was a phenomenal night.
And that's because we
had the phenomenal talent
of Deon Cole and Karrueche Tran
holding us down all night long!
Boy, did they deliver.
Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready?
Is the Lip Sync Battle champ Deon Cole?
Or is the Lip Sync Battle
champion Karrueche Tran?
Ladies and gentlemen,
and the winner of Lip
Sync Battle tonight is...
- Karrueche Tran!
- Oh my God!
Yeah, take a victory
lap. Take a victory lap.
So, Karrueche...
you're the Lip Sync
Battle champion tonight.
What does this moment feel like?
Great! Like I told y'all,
I never performed before,
so the fact that I won is like whoo!
Now, now, you won the belt, that's true,
but show Deon Cole some love.
Come on! Deon, you know I love you.
- It's all love.
- I love... I love you too, girl.
- And you did a great job as well.
- Thank you, baby.
And you're still in
character. I love that.
- I'm staying in character!
- He's still got the weird hand!
You definitely brought it.
You did your thing all
night. It was great.
Alright. Did you have as much
fun as we did watching you?
I had a blast. I want
to thank everybody.
Give it up for Lip Sync Battle.
Love, baby!
Big thanks to Karrueche
Tran and Deon Cole...
- Whoo!
- ... for hanging with our Lip Sync crew tonight.
One love from me, LL Cool J,
and my partner in crime, Chrissy Teigen.
