They won’t “Let It Go”! The Internet may never be the same after the Tatums’ Lip Sync Battle takeover on Thursday, January 7. From Jenna Dewan-Tatum’s reaction to Beyoncé’s surprise appearance to Channing Tatum’s Elsa impression, there were too many memorable moments to count.
“I’m hoping that we’ll be speaking to each other tomorrow,” Jenna noted at the beginning of the episode.
Fortunately for Us, the couple took to Twitter to live tweet the event from the comfort of their home, cheering each other on throughout the competition.
After Jenna, 35, opened the show with an on-point performance of Paula Abdul’s “Cold Hearted” (complete with a cameo from the ’80s sensation), Channing, 35, brought the house down with heartfelt rendition of “Let It Go” from Frozen, in full Queen Elsa drag.
Okkkkkkkkk that was hilarious @channingtatum #thenewelsa #LipSyncBattle

After Jenna added, “What. Is. Happening.,” the Magic Mike XXL star retweeted the message, writing, “#TeamJenna #LipSyncBattle.”
Frozen star Idina Menzel also voiced her support for Channing’s enthusiastic performance.
I got chills! And not because I’m an ice queen. You made me proud. https://t.co/tyO2ALmxaG

Trained dancer Jenna tried to steal the spotlight back with her take on Magic Mike, doing an aggressive strip tease to Ginuwine’s “Pony.” Her husband couldn’t keep it together, laughing with his head in his hands as Jenna danced on him before shooting off a money cannon.
But even her raunchy dance couldn’t compete with what happened next. Once again dressed in drag, Channing took the stage on a giant horse wearing a flowing blonde wig and black bra top. He then began mimicking the dance from Beyoncé’s “Run the World (Girls)” music video.
The audience suddenly began screaming as Queen Bey herself joined him on stage to dance out the last few lyrics. Jenna pretended to faint to the ground in the presence of the Grammy winner’s greatness.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!!!!!!!

It seemed like a fitting finish to the epic show, which Channing explained in his final tweet.

Lip Sync Battle gave both Channing and Jenna the belt as a tied prize, but Jenna said that might cause even more turmoil in their home.
Got to give it up to my go-hard husband. That was epic. (Buuuuut seriously- I’m sleeping with the belt tonight)

And Channing graciously gave the title to his wife on Twitter the next day.
