Vocal throwdown to feature iconic moves, outrageous costumes and plenty of laughs!
Jimmy Fallon made the lip sync battle famous. Now it’s time for our Detroit celebs to step up to the mic! In the first ever Celebrity Lip Sync Battle, hosted by New Day Foundation for Families, eight local celebrity teams will each compete on behalf of a New Day family in an epic lip-sync throw-down when they take to the stage live on Thursday, January 23, at 6:30 p.m. at the Royal Oak Music Theatre.
Staging their performances with hip choreography and iconic costuming, these celebrities will pull out all the stops to win. Performances will be critiqued by celebrity judges and voted on electronically by audience members. Battling it out will be:
Stephen Clark and JoAnne Purtan – WOMC, 104.3 FM
Blaine Fowler Morning Show – WDVD, 96.3 FM
Mickey York – FOX Sports Detroit
Andy Dirks – former Detroit Tiger, Realtor at Berkshire Hathaway
Chuck, Rachael and Grunwald – WYCD, 99.5 FM
Jackie Paige – WWJ News Radio, 950 AM
Kim Adams – 98.7 The Breeze
Devin Gardner – former U of M quarterback
The fantastic Justin Rose, from the WXYZ 7 Sports Cave, will lead the mayhem as emcee of the inaugural Lip Sync Battle. Celebrity judges Paul Glantz, founder and chairman of Emagine Theatres and David Van, president of Art Van Pure Sleep, will provide commentary and critique of the outlandish performances from the judges’ panel. Ultimately, the audience will decide by popular vote which team will be crowned as the victor in this epic vocal showdown!
Don’t miss out on this night of outrageous fun, classic dance moves and more – all to benefit families facing cancer. Tickets are available now at www.RoyalOakMusicTheatre.com for $50 each, or at the door with no fees, and include a pub-style buffet including sliders, coney dogs and a hot pretzel bar; a cash bar is available. Bring the family for food, fun, raffles and more! Doors open at 6 pm.

“We’re expecting some wild and crazy performances from our celebrity partners,” said Gina Kell Spehn, president and co-founder of New Day Foundation. “They’re digging deep creatively to win for their New Day family. It’s going to be lots of laughs and good times for the whole family. The trash talking has already started, so you know we’re in for a fun time.”
