**BLACKPINK’s Lisa Tries the *Hot Ones* Challenge Sans Dairy**
Lisa of BLACKPINK is the newest star to face the fiery wing challenge on *Hot Ones*, joining host Sean Evans for an engaging chat filled with spice and difficulty.
Prior to confronting the heat, the K-pop sensation disclosed that she had consulted fellow BLACKPINK member Rosé, who participated in the show last November. Despite Rosé’s suggestion to use ice cream for relief, Lisa was set on completing the challenge without any dairy aid.
“I’m Thai, and I want my people to feel proud,” Lisa expressed, although she noted that Thai food isn’t always “insanely spicy.” She also took it upon herself to disprove Rosé, proclaiming, “I’ll prove to Rosé that I’m not going to cry. I won’t cry!”
While she tackled the progressively spicy wings, Lisa highlighted the contrasts between rapping in Korean and English, shared some of her all-time favorite Thai street dishes, and reminisced about her acting debut in *The White Lotus* Season 3. However, the infamous *Da Bomb Beyond Insanity* sauce was her greatest challenge, leading her to disclose her personal method for managing extreme spice—spitting out her saliva.
“I want to do it now, but I know it’s going to look so terrible on camera,” Lisa confessed, sniffling as the heat affected her. “I should maintain my image!”
Despite the challenge, Lisa persevered, demonstrating her strength and commitment to completing *Hot Ones* without breaking down.
