There are some things that A-list status cant protect you from, capsaicin being one of them.
Its a weird-looking setup, but it does offer a rare opportunity forHot Onesaficionados.
Namely, which boy bander will cope best with all that spice?
Before the new ep drops on Thursday, Vulture is wildly conjecturing below.
JC Chasez
I think JC may do the worst on the ten wings of death.
Still, JC was one of the bands most committed dancers.
His esprit de corps is on full display in hisTikTok fandom.
He may bring that same commitment toHot Ones.
Chris Kirkpatrick
In his2022 episode ofCribs,Chris Kirkpatrick did not show his kitchen.
This feels very telling.
If youre a hot-sauce guy, you show that shit off.
Will Kirkpatrick be near the bottom of the wing-eating pile?
This I promise you.
Lance Bass
Lance Bass yearns for adventure, for extremes.
He wanted to go to spacesoooobad, which makes me think hot sauce is no problem.
If youre willing to take on hella Gs to get to the moon, Scovilles cant rate very high.
BasssWest Hollywood bar, Roccos, serves wings with a special 911 hot sauce.
Both these factors conspire to make me think Bass will hold it down in the sauce.
Justin Timberlake
Timberlake has doneHot Onesbefore and did not relish the experience.
The Mirrors singer started feeling the spice on wing No.
2 and was begging for a bathroom before the show even began.
He also vowed to return, and has made good on that promise.
Joey Fatone
Former hot-dog magnate Joey Fatone has also doneHot Onesbefore.
He chugged a lot of water to get through it, but he persevered.
Fatones episode ofHot Onesalso debuted the shows official hot sauce.
Plus, he talked a lot of shit on DJ Khaled.
Thats succeeding atbothsides of theHot Onesformula.
