A few weeks ago, Hits Radio Breakfast with Fleur East, Greg and James met up with Justin Timberlake and Anna Kendrick to talk about their new film Trolls World Tour.

And with it being a Friday, Fleur took the opportunity to show off her amazing Rap Roulette talents with a Trolls-Themed rap. To the tune of Justin Timberlake's 'Sexy Back', Fleur's rap included lyrics such as,

"Queen Poppy and Branch on a mission to close the gap,

"Singing all already the world, going to save it track by track."

The Trolls actors were left truly impressed by Fleur's Rap Roulette, with Anna saying it should be used on the trailer, and Justin telling her she should record it saying, "You have to put that down in a studio, I want to take that with me everywhere."

During the interview, the pair also described what it was like to record their lines by themselves, without anyone to bounce off.

Anna told Hits Radio Breakfast, "The have they characters around when we're doing it, and Poppy is so cute, so it's pretty easy. Yeah, she's adorable."

The Twilight Saga actress went on to joke, working without anyone there was like, "reacting to Justin. A headshot on a C stand (microphone stand)."

Justin and Anna return to voice Branch and Poppy in Trolls World Tour, as they aim to embark on a daring mission. The pair find out there are six troll tribes each with a different type of music, but when the rockers set out to destroy the other music, Branch and Poppy go on a mission to save the diverse melodies from becoming extinct.
