If you love seeing your favourite stars miming their hearts out on Lip Sync Battle, get ready for an all-new season.
Spike TV announced today that a whole new crop of celebrities will battle it out for the show's big gold belt in 2016.
20 brand new episodes will be ordered for the sophomore season of Lip Sync Battle in hopes of retaining its title as cable's most-watched original series.
Spike's president Kevin Kay said today: "Lip Sync Battle is a television and viral rock star for Spike. We are thrilled to be renewing Lip Sync Battle whose success is a direct result of the brilliance and creativity of our producers, the brave performers, and of course the coolest new duo on television, LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen."
John Krasinski and Stephen Merchant are responsible for developing the Spike reality competition as a spinoff of Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show.
Fallon was introduced to the miming game by Merchant on his previous series Late Night, and it proved so popular that it became a recurring segment once he moved over to The Tonight Show.
What to Read Next
Season one of Lip Sync Battle has already pitted Fallon against Dwayne Johnson, had Common face off with John Legend, Anne Hathaway ride a wrecking ball in a Devil Wears Prada rematch against Emily Blunt, and Anna Kendrick use a celebrity cameo to best John Krasinski.
This week's episode will include Terry Crews going round-for-round with former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson.
Lip Sync Battle airs on Thursday (April 23) on Spike TV in the US. Spike also airs the series in the UK.
