Ben Platt<\/strong> just outed Nina Dobrev<\/a><\/strong>‘s secret skill.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, the Run This Town<\/em> co-stars stopped by Pop of the Morning<\/em> to discuss their new movie (which hits theaters tomorrow) and wound up revealing the 31-year-old actress’ rap ability. According to Platt, he learned that Dobrev could spit a rhyme during a karaoke session.<\/p>\n

“I learned that she can rap, ’cause we did karaoke,” The Politician<\/em> star noted about his co-star, whom he worked with for the first time on Run This Town<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, this admission had POTM<\/em> co-host<\/a> Victor Cruz<\/a><\/strong> begging Dobrev to display her rap skills. “We need like, a quick six bars right now,” the retired NFL player quipped.<\/p>\n

Thankfully for Dobrev, Platt intervened, apologizing for putting her in the “hot seat.”<\/p>\n

“We did karaoke! I like to sing a lot, as she’ll tell you, and so she’s pulling up the rap side,” the Tony winner further shared.<\/p>\n

“I mean, I couldn’t sing near him,” Dobrev added. “Nobody should ever sing with Ben Platt in the room. So, I resorted to rap instead.”<\/p>\n

The rap song in question? A karaoke classic, Sir Mix-A-Lot<\/strong>‘s “Baby Got Back.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

We can’t say we blame Dobrev for not wanting to sing in front of Platt, who had many A-list fans during his Tony award-winning run-on<\/a> Broadway’s Dear Evan Hansen<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Per Platt, he was the most star-struck after meeting<\/a> Beyonc\u00e9<\/a><\/strong> and Hillary Clinton<\/a><\/strong>. While most people wouldn’t have wanted to know the famous faces in the audience, Platt said it was better to know beforehand since he could see everyone.<\/p>\n

“I was looking out at the audience so much and it was a small house, I was gonna find out at some point in the middle of the show who was there anyways,” the Pitch Perfect<\/em> alum relayed. “The idea of getting tripped up by spotting Meryl Streep<\/a><\/strong> in the middle of a scene was scarier to me than just, ‘Give me the list of the show. Who’s here, get it out of mind.'”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Of course, Platt isn’t the only one with famous fans as Taylor Swift<\/a><\/strong> was a fan of Dobrev’s CW hit<\/a>, The Vampire Diaries<\/em>.<\/p>\n

“At the very beginning, we heard that Taylor Swift was a fan of the show,” the Bulgarian-born actress stated. “And then, the producers tried to write a role for her, it didn’t work out schedule-wise.”<\/p>\n

Although Swift’s schedule didn’t allow her to take the cameo, Dobrev said she thought the “Lover” singer “would’ve been great.”<\/p>\n
