By Troy Nankervis

It’s the reality music show that keeps attracting the big names from Rihanna, to Channing Tatum, to Gwen Stefani.

But when Nashville star Hayden Panettiere challenges Eva Longoria on this week’s episode of Lip Sync Battle, she has a secret weapon in the form of a a surprise cameo from vocal powerhouse Christina Aguilera.

As 26-year-old Panettiere struts the stage while belting out lyrics from ‘Lady Marmalade’, everything goes up a notch when Aguilera chimes in for that iconic vocal run, reports Billboard.

And both are looking on point with their Moulin Rouge! inspired-outfits, paying homage to the 2001 film clip directed by Baz Luhrmann and starring Pink, Lil’ Kim and Mya alongside Aguilera.

The full episode of Lip Sync Battle is to air this Thursday on Spike in the US.
