Justin Bieber is definitely not afraid to show his emotions in a fun clip from this week's Lip Sync Battle.

The popstar's strategy for upending NFL great Deion Sanders is simple: tug on the heartstrings of co-host Chrissy Teigen and Lip Sync Battle's studio audience.

To that end, Bieber pours every ounce of emotion possible into Fergie's female empowerment anthem 'Big Girls Don't Cry'.

Not even Sanders is immune to Bieber's charms, as the 'Never Say Never' singer gently strokes his face while miming the 'Big Girls Don't Cry' chorus.

A bold move from Bieber - but will it win him the Lip Sync Battle championship belt? Perhaps not, because Bieber takes a more rocking tack in round two.

US viewers will have to tune in to Lip Sync Battle on Thursday at 10pm ET on Spike to see which star comes out on top. Spike also airs Lip Sync Battle in the UK.
