Tim Tebow Triumphs Over Nina Dobrev! NFL Star Brings A Game To ‘Lip Sync Battle’
How do you defeat a football player? Don't wear his jersey. Nina Dobrev found out about this the hard way during the latest episode of "Lip Sync Battle," where the actress lost to NFL quarterback Tim Tebow.
"Nina Dobrev was great on Thursday's Lip Sync Battle, but The Vampire Diaries star just didn't have enough to defeat former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow," Yahoo TV wrote.
Dobrev rubbed up on Tebow while lip-syncing to Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On" during her first performance. For her second entry, the actress showed off her cheerleading moves while dressed as a football player.
In the end, Dobrev could not handle the intensity of Tebow's lip sync of Survivor's "The Eye of the Tiger" as he dressed up as Sylvester Stallone's Rocky Balboa.
It was the NFL quarterback's second performance, following a lip sync of Sam Hunt's "Take Your Time."
Popsugar said that Nina Dobrev's performance at the "Lip Sync Battle" was an "ultimate shot" at Tim Tebow.
"In this perfect spin on OMI's 'Cheerleader,' the Vampire Diaries actress showed off her impressive moves while donning the former NFL player's Broncos jersey. And just in time for the Super Bowl, too!" the news site wrote, even posting a video of the performance.
USA Today, meanwhile, preferred Nina Dobrev's routine.
It said, "We suppose Tebow's Eye of the Tiger was good too. But did it include acrobatics? Nope. More importantly, did it include Chrissy Teigen doing THIS?!!?"
But TV Line called Nina Dobrev's cheerleader performance on "Lip Sync Battle" as "lackluster" and "humdrum" compared with Tim Tebow's.
"Former Mystic Falls resident Nina Dobrev didn't exactly bring her A game to Thursday's Lip Sync Battle," TV Line wrote.
The "feud" between the two has been making the waves in the past few days as the "Lip Sync Battle" has currently been renewed for another season.
