Just in case "Umbrella" didn't go through, we had a backup performance. We actually created two different sets of costumes for him and all of the dancers. According to costume designer Jeanie Cheek, they even had costumes prepared: The backup number would've had Holland dressed in a red latex jumpsuit, like the one worn by Spears in the song's music video, and even featured a cameo from the singer herself as an astronaut - another callback to the music video. According to a creative brief viewed by Insider, Lip Sync Battle's producers had a backup song prepared if they couldn't secure the rights to use Rhianna's "Umbrella," and that song was "Oops I Did It Again" by Britney Spears. In Ashley Spencer's oral history of Holland's Lip Sync Battle performance for Insider, in honor of the episode's four-year anniversary, the creatives involved in the number spoke about how it all came together.

The clip quickly went viral online, and is regularly shared on social media sites even now. In the season 3 episode, Holland and Zendaya battled it out, lip syncing along to the songs Nelly's "Ride Wit Me," Erykah Badu's "Tyrone" and Bruno Mars' "24K Magic." But it was Holland's performance of Rihanna's "Umbrella" that stole the show.
It was as part of the long promotional tour for Spider-Man: Homecoming's July 2017 release that Holland appeared on Lip Sync Battle, facing off against his co-star Zendaya, who plays Michelle "MJ" Jones in the Marvel franchise. The actor has a background in dance, having starred in Billy Elliot the Musical, and, prior to his MCU casting, often posted videos to social media of himself jumping and flipping much like Marvel's wall-crawler. The Spider-Man actor had been chosen as Marvel Studios' Peter Parker after an extensive casting search, and one aspect of Holland's experience that endeared him to fans was his physicality. If Holland doesn't dance at least once in the new Spider-Man movie we're going to be supremely disappointed.Tom Holland almost performed Britney Spears' "Oops I Did It Again" on Lip Sync Battle instead of Rihanna's "Umbrella." In May 2017 when the episode premiered, Holland was working to promote his then-upcoming first solo superhero movie, Spider-Man: Homecoming, after making his initial Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in 2016's Captain America: Civil War. Holland's portion of the video starts at 1:43. And did we mention the rain? Yeah, there's rain. Holland is an alum of Billy Elliot on London's West End and puts his dance training to incredibly good use, with a brief intro featuring the musical classic Singin' in the Rain, and then a bombastic performance with body rolls, flips and death drops galore, all the while wearing an A+ wig, pleather, lingerie and fishnets.
