Sophie Turner's A Cappella 'Real Slim Shady' Ups the Bar for Stars Rapping on Talk Shows

'Game of Thrones' star Sophie Turner is a badass warrior on the HBO show and a fire-spitting rapper in real life as she effortlessly tackles Eminem's "The Real Slim Shady" on 'The Late Late Show with James Corden.'

The dragons may breathe fire in Game of Thrones, but in real life it's Sophie Turner, aka Sansa Stark, who can "spit pure fire."

During an appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden during its week in London, the host asked Turner about her love for Eminem. "I am a huge fan of both M&Ms and the rapper Eminem," she said. Of course, Corden, who's known for his segments Drop the Mic and Carpool Karaoke, couldn't just take her word for it. "I spit pure fire," she said in response to Corden asking her whether or not she could rap his lyrics.

"Well, I don't think any of us believe you...unless you were to prove such a thing," said Corden.

She took on the rap challenge with her favorite Em song, "The Real Slim Shady," and killed it with the sound effects and all. Although she stopped just before the Detroit rapper's whole "expect them not to know what a woman's clitoris is" line.

"I can't say the next word, it's really rude," says Turner. She did tackle "my bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips" though.

In other news, Game of Thrones still won't return for its final season until next year. In the meantime, Turner is quite busy. Most notably, she'll be returning as Jean Grey, aka Phoenix, in X-Men: Dark Phoenix after starring in 2015's X-Men: Apocalypse. It's set to be released on Feb. 14, 2019.
