Anna Kendrick performs the Jennifer Lopez song “Booty” on Thursday’s “Lip Sync Battle,” and she enlisted a special guest to help her beat her opponent, John Krasinski. In a teaser video, Kendrick is seen rapping Pitbull’s verse in the song when Lopez herself walks out. See the video below.

“What is happening?” yells Krasinski, as Lopez struts towards Kendrick. Krasinski also gave an amusing performance. In the clip, he is first seen mouthing the words to Tina Turner’s “Proud Mary,” before he suddenly rips off his suit to reveal a shimmery dress underneath. It’s quite a moment.

As Gossip Cop previously reported, Anne Hathaway performed on “Lip Sync Battle” last week against Krasinski’s wife Emily Blunt. Hathaway did a Mary J. Blige song, while Blunt chose the classic “No Diggity.” The first episode of “Lip Sync Battle,” featured John Legend against Common, and Dwayne Johnson performing “Shake It Off” against Jimmy Fallon, who fake sang Madonna’s “Like A Prayer.”

Check out the video below of Kendrick singing “Booty” and Krasinski’s “Proud Mary” on “Lip Sync Battle,” and tell us who you think will win.

V. Stiviano, the former “friend” of Donald Sterling, was ordered by a Los Angeles judge to return more than $2 million to Shelly Sterling. The ruling came on Tuesday, nearly a month after the Sterlings and Stiviano battled in court over the expensive gifts the model had obtained over the course of her relationship with Donald.

The Los Angeles Superior Court ruled Stiviano must return a $1.8 million duplex, originally gifted by Sterling, to Shelly, as well as $800,000 he had given her in the form of exotic cars, lavish vacations, and cash handouts. During the trial, Shelly alleged that Stiviano seduced Sterling and manipulated him into giving her the expensive gifts. Shelly also claimed that she has rights to half of everything given to Stiviano because she’s still married to Sterling, and the money used to buy Stiviano’s gifts came from the couple’s joint empire.

Shelly’s attorney, Pierce O’Donnell, said after the ruling that his client was “thrilled about the decision.” Stiviano’s attorney, Mac Nehoray, said he plans to appeal the judge’s decision. As Gossip Cop previously reported, Donald was ousted as owner of the Los Angeles Clippers after Stiviano reportedly leaked audio of him making racially offensive remarks about black people. Donald also received a lifetime ban from the NBA and was fined $2.5 million.

Jeremy Renner is opening up about his greatest role to date: fatherhood. The actor appeared on Wednesday’s “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” where he talked about his two-year-old daughter Ava. Watch the video below!

Even though the legal situation with his estranged wife Sonni Pacheco is ugly, Renner told DeGeneres that being a dad is “the greatest thing in the world.” “I mean, it really kind of changed my perspective on a lot of things,” said Renner, adding that Ava is now “talking a lot.” The star joked to the host that fatherhood “kind of screwed my career in a lot of ways.”

“I don’t really care about it so much ’cause I care about her so much,” explained Renner, noting, “She’s like number one in my life. And now I get to do movies on the side. Daddy’s my best role to date, I think.”

The Avengers: Age of Ultron star revealed that the one drawback is his constant traveling for work. “I do a lot of flights back [when I’m working],” said Renner, adding, “I did like 40 flights back from London to here pretty much every two weeks to see her, sometimes for eight hours and then fly back.”

As Gossip Cop previously reported, Renner and Pacheco went through a bitter split and custody battle over their daughter. Pacheco accused Renner of having an unstable home environment and therefore wanted full custody of Ava. Renner fired back alleging that Pacheco would often choose drugs and alcohol over their daughter. Earlier this month a settlement was reached giving both Renner and Pacheco joint custody of the baby. Check out Renner on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” below, and tell us what you think.
