Tom Holland says he's 'proud' of his iconic Rihanna dance routine but 'you'd never catch me doing that now'

• Tom Holland said he's proud of his "Lip Sync Battle" dance routine to Rihanna's "Umbrella."

• However, the actor added that "you'd never catch me doing that now."

• Holland said he'd prefer to just "play golf and live my little private life."

Tom Holland has already had an incredible career in the years since he first donned the Spider-Man costume in the Marvel Cinematic Universe back in 2016's "Captain America: Civil War."

But one of his biggest moments actually came on "Lip Sync Battle" in 2017 when he was promoting "Spider-Man: Homecoming." Holland shocked the entire world — and his future girlfriend Zendaya — when he broke into an epic dance routine inspired by Rihanna's "Umbrella" music video, complete with fishnets, a wig, and makeup.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published Wednesday, Holland said that he's proud of his "Lip Sync Battle" appearance, but he wouldn't sign up again.

"I'm proud of it. I like that it left a lasting impact. It was an amazing time. My life was changing before my eyes," said the actor. "'Spider-Man' was coming out. I was on the up. I was getting offers and turning them down for the first time, which was really crazy."

The "Spider-Man" star went on to say that his priorities have changed since he famously took the stage with his umbrella (ella, ella).

"But you'd never catch me doing that now. Just because I don't want to do a fucking TV show that I don't need to do. I'd rather go and play golf and live my little private life," Holland said.

Holland said the dance has become one of the things he's best known for, which he finds "interesting."

"It is an interesting one," said the actor. "Because I've really worked hard in my career and I've really been calculated in deciding what it is I do and when I do it. And for all the movies that I'm incredibly proud of, the 'Lip Sync Battle' is what I get the most compliments for."

The actor also spoke about the enduring legacy of his performance, which has been heralded for eschewing stereotypical macho depictions of men. However, Holland said he wasn't trying to comment on toxic masculinity.

"I don't give a fuck. I've grown up in the most non-toxic-masculine environment possible. I didn't realize what I was doing was so forward-thinking," he explained. "I was just like, 'Yeah, fuck it, I'll put some fishnets on and dance in the rain. That'll be really fun. I don't care.'"
