Who knew Sandra Bullock could rap?

During a recent visit to Jonathan Ross' U.K. talk show, the Gravity star's interview quickly turned into a rapping session when she started busting rhymes from The Sugarhill Gang song "Rapper's Delight."

"I learned the words because I liked this guy in high school," Bullock explained before her rap performance. "I was like, 'Next time I go to that dance, I'm going to know every word. I'm going to make sure he sees me lip-syncing it and I'm going to catch his eye and I'm gonna, like, say the words. And he's going to like me.' And sadly, it worked."

Bullock then said, "Give me some beats, yo," before rapping the lyrics of the song for about half a minute. After her impromptu jam session, the crowd cheered and applauded her hip-hop show as Bullock laughed off the performance.

Bullock isn't the first Oscar-winning actress to show off her surprising rapping skills. Back in 2011, Gwyneth Paltrow busted out rhymes from the song "Straight Outta Compton" during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show.

So which star is the best rapper? Watch and decide for yourself!
