Jimmy Fallon's 'Lip Sync Battle' Is Going to Be a Show Now
by Andy NeuenschwanderHere's a weird concept for a game show.
"Lip Sync Battle" is the Spike network's newest pickup, a game show based on the recurring segment seen on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" and, more recently, "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."
The rules are simple: You lip-sync to a song and make it as epic and stylish as you can. Whoever gives the best performance, wins the game.
Of course, the rules might be a little different on the show to keep things interesting, but that's how things go on Fallon's show when he faces off with celebrities.
John Krasinski of "The Office" and Stephen Merchant of "Hello Ladies" are on board as EPs along with Fallon. The three stars will also appear on the show on occasion to compete as well.
As of yet, the show doesn't have any other talent attached, including a host. It's also unknown whether the show will feature regular people competing, just celebrities, or a mix of both a la "Hollywood Game Night."
For an example of the fun, here's one of Fallon's recent battles with Emma Stone:
