The latest guest to face off against Jimmy Fallon in an epic lip-sync battle on The Tonight Show was the one and only Tom Cruise.
We'll admit, we weren’t too sure how Cruise would stand up against the fierce competition. Sure, he can tackle a seemingly endless number of impossible missions — but can he pretend to sing? The actor definitely brought his A-game with a surprisingly spot-on performance. Hollywood's stalwart leading man is actually quite the charmer. Who knew?
His first song of choice was The Weeknd's "I Can't Feel My Face," followed by a glorious cover of Meat Loaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Light." Cruise then teamed up with Fallon for a duet. The hilarious pair serenaded a lucky audience member with the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Loving Feeling," and we were definitely kind of jealous.
If his lip-synching prowess is any proof, Cruise may very well be the most charismatic actor on the planet. Isn't it about time we forgot about that whole couch-jumping incident?
Cruise has been making the rounds promoting Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation, but we’re really starting to wonder if he has a future behind the mic. Rock of Ages, anyone?
We don’t know about you, but we couldn’t stop smiling. Check out the full video below.
