Becky G Suggests a Taco Spin-Off & Says ‘You Can’t Even Enjoy That’ While Eating Spiciest Wing on ‘Hot Ones’

Becky G has officially joined the list of famous Latin artists who took on the Hot Ones challenge.

The artist (real name: Rebbeca Marie Gomez) — a self-proclaimed spicy food enthusiast — shared her excitement with Hot Ones host Sean Evans about finally getting to be on the show, saying: “This is my Super Bowl.”

The Mexican-American singer came in confident in the most recent episode of the wing-sauce franchise, sharing a story with Evans of the spiciest food experience she has ever had.

“I remember being about 7 years old, and I was triple-dog-dared by a family member to bite a chili and rub it around my lips for 30 seconds,” she said. “My lips got so big, and I definitely had a reaction of sorts — but I got my 10 dollars.”

From Garlic Delight to The Last Dab: Thermageddon, Becky got candid with Evans as he asked her a round of questions about her childhood, her favorite Selena Quintanilla song, and shifting from an early career in English to becoming a Spanish-language pop star.

“The amount of research that you do for these is crazy,” she exclaimed when Evans asked if she still frequented Kelso Ranch Market, a supermarket in Los Angeles, to eat a paleta de sandía (watermelon popsicle) after school. “I remember shooting the ‘Becky From the Block’ video there and thinking I was hot sh–,” she recalled of the video, which included a Jennifer Lopez cameo.

“Becky From the Block” played a key role in introducing Becky to a wider audience with millions of YouTube views and establishing her as an emerging bilingual artist in 2013. Eventually, she released “Shower,” her breakout global hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No. 16 in 2014.

Though she was seemingly surprised by how hot some of the sauces actually are, she managed to get to the end of the challenge, with a few candid reactions along the way. “You can’t even enjoy that,” she said to Evans after biting into the 10th wing. She also suggested a taco spin-off to the host instead of just sticking to wings.

Becky’s Hot Ones visit aired just three days after another Latin superstar passed the spicy wings challenge: Colombian J Balvin, who also claimed victory in the June 1st episode.
