BLACKPINK’s Jennie Weeps, Trembles, and Calls for Assistance in Exciting Hot Ones Feature


Jennie is the third member of BLACKPINK to participate in the Hot Ones challenge, joining host Sean Evans for a fiery tasting of hot sauces. The episode showcases nearly 23 minutes of intense reactions, with Jennie delivering one of the most dramatic and entertaining experiences to date.

Right from the beginning, it didn’t bode well for Jennie, who admitted to not enjoying or consuming spicy food often. Nevertheless, she aimed to maintain her composure.

“I’m going to do my best and stay calm,” Jennie declared. “I won’t overreact to the spice.”

“I like that you’re making this assertion on wing two,” Evans noted.

Despite her resolve, Jennie’s composure slipped at the fourth sauce, as the Serrano Mango Hopp Sauce began to “kick [her] tongue.” The situation intensified with Da Bomb Beyond Insanity, prompting Jennie to rise from her seat, pacing, screaming, crying, and shaking from the heat.

“I’m in agony!” Jennie shouted between screams and bites of ice cream. “I can’t talk! Guys, I can’t hear anything anymore! God, help me!”

Evans carried on with the interview, inquiring about cooking tips and interesting facts about capybaras. While Jennie attempted to respond, her primary focus remained on the overwhelming pain.

“Where am I?” Jennie yelled. “Send me home! I want to go home! I’m struggling to comprehend English right now!”

In the end, Jennie successfully completed the Hot Ones challenge, bravely tasting all 10 hot sauces like her fellow BLACKPINK members Lisa and Rosé. Although her responses might have been less articulate than hoped, and she was too consumed to promote her new album, her Hot Ones appearance was certainly entertaining.

“I’m giving you nothing here,” Jennie remarked. “I’m providing you with tears and screams.”
