But Merchant's was in his element, and his take on Enrique Iglesias's "Hero" definitely upped the ante.
Then, the battle for dirtiest got even more intense, as Akerman took on Jason Derulo's "Talk Dirty" and Merchant did Christina Aguilera's "Dirrty."A man that tall should never wear leather chaps, which is probably why he won. Also, Chrissy Teigen should win something for sniffing Merchant's trouser sock.
