Les Fabian BrathwaiteNot gonna lie to ya, kids, we've been sleeping on this season of Lip Sync Battle. They kind of blew their load on the second season premiere, because once you've nabbed a Beyoncé cameo, there's nowhere to go but down.
And not for nothing, there has been nary an Oscar-winner coming in on a wrecking ball. But the old LSB still has a few tricks up its sleeve, namely honorary drag queen NeNe Leakes. The Real Housewives of Atlanta MVP channeled RuPaul to take on the seminal sashay-shanté-shanté of "Supermodel (You Better Work)." Mother not only came to work, but she brought friends.

Now, Mama Ru has had some not-so-kind words for Lip Sync Battle, calling the Spike show a "poor ripoff" of Drag Race's Lip Sync for Your Life. And while he's right, ask anyone elbow deep in a bin of Chinatown faux Louis Vuitton and they'll tell you a cheap knockoff is sometimes as good as the real thing. Or good enough.
Check out a preview of NeNe's "Supermodel" below:
Lip Sync Battle airs Thursday, April 14 at 10pm EST on Spike.
