Bad Bunny Quits ‘Hot Ones’ Challenge Midway Through: ‘I’m Worried About My Colon’

Bad Bunny can do a lot of things — rap, act and wrestle, to name a few — but he couldn’t get through the spicy wings challenge on Sean Evans’ Hot Ones.

In the episode posted Thursday (Jan. 23), the Puerto Rican musician gave a valiant effort while taking on the wings of death — but the signs that he wouldn’t be able to make it to the end were present throughout. “I’m feeling it, and I don’t like it, because I’m worried about my colon,” Benito said after a few increasingly hot bites of chicken.

“I think I will be at the bathroom the whole trip from here to Puerto Rico,” he added.

Despite lapping milk like a cat and icing his taste buds with ice cream, the “Titi Me Pregunto” rapper had to call it quits before he reached the end of the show’s hot sauce lineup. “There’s no way I’m going to eat all of those,” he said breathlessly, saying that his whole face felt hot. “There’s no way.”

Though Evans comforted Bunny in person, Hot Ones made sure to tease him a little bit in post-production. Editing a picture of the Grammy winner onto its “Wall-Most Made It,” the web series officially inducted him into its academy of past guests who didn’t reach the finish line — including Ice Spice, DJ Khaled and Ricky Gervais.

Bunny’s Hot Ones appearance comes a few weeks after the release of his new album, Debi Tirar Mas Fotos, which peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in its second week. Before he succumbed to spice overload, the musician talked about his signature sound with Evans, saying, “Especially on this album, there’s a lot of salsa, there’s all the rhythms that I’ve never done before.”

From appearing on The Tonight Show to staging a surprise performance in the New York subways, Benito has also been doing a lot of press in the United States for the LP — something he says he enjoys, though he’s “still struggling with the English.”

“I need to put a lot of attention to you to understand you,” he told Evans, before exclaiming with a numb tongue, “But now I’m struggling with the f–king spicy on my mouth.”

Watch Bad Bunny try — and fail — to conquer Hot Ones above.
