Blackpinks Jennie went into Hot With self -confidence and charm, but through the wing number eight, she cried for help, sprinted turns around the set and begging for mercy from the burning sauce that she once underestimated.
K-Pop Superstar debuted on the viral Youtube interview series on June 19, before host Sean Evans and the show’s notoriously escalating line-up of spicy chicken wings. Early in the section Jennie admitted that she does not handle spices: “In my daily life I have nothing – no spice in my life. I do not like spicy food or anything with spice. If something, I like things as usual.” But determined to challenge herself (and maybe earn some boastful rights), she hides.
For starters, Jennie seemed impatient, even poking fun at Evans and said she was “kind of disappointed” by the heat level. But the turning point came with the notorious da ‘bomb hot sauce. That’s when the breakdown began … literally. The 29-year-old singer and rapper giped, called out and seized milk and ice cream as she found her face with napkins. “I can’t hear anymore,” she exclaimed and forced a shaky smile through the pain. “God, help me!” She even ran around the table in the middle of the interview dramatically to escape the fire on her tongue.
Throughout the spice-induced chaos, Jennie still managed to open up his debut solo album RUBYHer skincare routines, her love for her fans who sing her lyrics live and even her pet hamster. But her suffering was impossible to miss, and also, for many fans, delightful and very entertaining. “She was deceived by Lisa and Rosé’s cold reactions,” joked a fan online and referred to her bandmates previous performances on the show. “She is fighting for her life,” wrote another, because the clip of the episode quickly went viral.
Despite the anxiety, Jennie took it through all ten wings and became the third Blackpink member to complete the challenge. And she had one thing to say about the last member to meet the heat: “100% Jisoo should come up with because she is the one who taught me spicy, and she is the other you. As she made me eat spicy food with her. Ever since we were trainees. So I think I think I think I think I think I think I think I think [Jisoo] Should come on this show. You will love it, “she tells Evans. Considering the performances of her band camera, she added,” what Rosé and Lisa did, this is the real reaction. Since I looked at their episode and they were so cold about it so I was as if they do, maybe I can do it too. But I can’t! “
While Jennie’s tear-eyed struggle got laughter and sympathy from the fans, it also drew unjustified online criticism, with some Netizens who accused her of overactive or “crawl.” But in really fandom -fashion, her supporters quickly patted back and defended her raw, funny honesty and the emotional mountain and the roller coaster she brought to the table. Love her or not, Jennie’s Hot Ones episode has become one of the most talked about payments in series proof that spice, laughter and some chaos make for an unforgettable watch.
