Hathaway wrecks a ball on Lip Sync Battle

December 4, 2015 by Yein Jee

Video of Anne Hathaway performing Miley Cyrus’s Wrecking Ball on Lip Sync Battle – a musical reality competition show which pits celebrities against each other in lip sync performances.

This performance was from the third episode last April, which also featured Emily Blunt. I watched the preview video back then, which was fun; but this full version is simply awesome in a satirical way.

Blunt’s reaction is extra bonus. The duo was co-stars in The Devil Wears Prada in 2006; it was Blunt’s breakthrough film which boosted Hathaway’s career too. The two also became good friends since.
