Gina Rodriguez got gangsta on Spike’s “Lip Sync Battle.” If she doesn’t win, Wilmer Valderrama may want to watch his back.
The main “Jane the Virgin” star will show off her non-vocal rhyming skills to Lil Wayne‘s “A Milli” this Thursday, when she takes on the “That ’70s Show” alum. Co-host Chrissy Teigen was impressed with what she witnessed — or perhaps she was just terrified.
Valderrama took it all a little bit more in stride, including when he was referred to as a “bitch.” Watch the video above.

The two will officially duke it out Thursday at 10/9c on Spike. Like the songs themselves, the “Lip Sync” performances are obviously pre-taped.
“Lip Sync Battle” is hosted by LL Cool J. The series is executive produced by Casey Patterson, Jay Peterson of Matador Content, John Krasinski, Stephen Merchant and Eight Million Plus Productions.
