Tom Holland, star of the Spider-Man movie series, surprised many with his high-energy Lip Sync Battle performance in 2017. The show, which took place four years ago, remains a defining moment in Holland's off-screen entertainment career.
The performance began with a nod to Gene Kelly's iconic "Singin' in the Rain," but soon transitioned into Rihanna's "Umbrella." Holland, dressed in a bob wig, a dress, and his grandmother's fishnet tights, danced with a rain machine on stage, creating a mesmerizing spectacle.

Holland's father, Dominic Holland, had doubts about the performance, fearing that his son might become too famous too quickly. Despite these concerns, the performance was well-received, and it can be inferred that his family and fans were impressed by the performance.
In a recent cooking segment with Gordon Ramsay at the Gordon Ramsay Academy, Holland recalled his 2017 Lip Sync Battle performance where he danced in fishnets to Rihanna's "Umbrella." During the segment, Holland revealed that people did not know he could dance, making the performance all the more surprising.
The performance remains a beloved viral clip, showcasing Holland's hidden dance skills from his stage background and highlighting his ability to switch between serious roles in the Spider-Man movie series and light-hearted off-screen entertainment.
The Lip Sync Battle performance by Tom Holland in 2017, featuring a medley of songs ranging from "Singin' in the Rain" to Rihanna's "Umbrella," encapsulates his ventures into the world of off-screen entertainment, which includes movies, TV shows, and other forms of celebrity-driven entertainment.
