Darren Criss was named the winner of Lip Sync Battle on Thursday after performing with honoree Mariah Carey. The 31-year-old former Glee star beat out record executive Jermaine Dupri, 46, during the Mariah Carey tribute episode.
Darren dressed in drag with a flowing wig, crop top, skinny jeans and heels for his performance to Heartbreaker. Jermaine meanwhile performed to Shake It Off from Mariah's 2005 album The Emancipation Of Mimi. They teamed up for a Mariah tribute and were joined by the pop diva.
Mariah, 48, floated above the stage on a white furry swing with enormous white butterfly wings behind it. She stunned the crowed in a strapless sweetheart neck lavender sequined gown that was ruched and fitted to her killer curves with a high slit up front.

The star paired the shimmering number with an icy toned ostrich feather cape and high platform T-strap pumps. Mariah glowed on stage with her long blonde locks coiffed into perfect waves.
She was quick to call out Jermaine for messing up the lyrics that he actually wrote. "Even though you forgot the words to Shake It Off - which we wrote together," she teased as Jermaine laughed sheepishly. "You forgot some of the words, but I've done that myself," Mariah admitted.
Show hosts LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen polled the studio audience who declared Darren the winner. The Lip Sync Battle championship belt was placed around his waist and Darren dedicated his victory to Mariah.
