It’s been 15 years since Christina, Lil’ Kim, Mýa and Pink – let’s not forget Pink – changed the face of modern music with their cover of ‘Lady Marmalade‘, from the soundtrack of Baz Luhrmann‘s subtle, meditative Moulin Rouge.
The next episode of the equally understated Lip Sync Battle features a performance of this very song, with Hayden Panettiere mouthing the words, because sure, why not, she’s a person with lips who was obviously free that day.
The trailer recently arrived online, and the money shot occurs at the moment when the actual Christina Aguilera emerges from behind a black, feathered fan to deliver a spirited lip sync over the bridge of her own song.
Watch it, then imagine Christina emerging from behind a black feathered fan in other places, like when she’s buying a pack of ciggies at the servo, or appearing from behind you in a dark alley:
The full lip sync battle airs Thursday, U.S. time.
