Appearing on the Holiday Special of Lip Sync Battle, Joseph Gordon-Levitt went up against Anthony Mackie with a rendition of Janet Jackson’s iconic 1989 hit, “Rhythm Nation.”

Joseph Gordon-Levitt went full Janet, sporting Jackson’s iconic black military style wardrobe including a baseball hat and a pony tail. Levitt even went a little drag with his make-up. But perhaps most impressive was Levitt’s spot on delivery of Ms. Jackson’s dance moves made famous by her music video for “Rhythm Nation.”

Host LL Cool J and fellow contestant Anthony Mackie were left speechless by Levitt’s performance.
