BLACKPINK’s ROSÉ proved she’s not just a vocal powerhouse but also a spice warrior in her recent appearance on First We Feast’s legendary “Hot Ones” show. The K-pop sensation took on the infamous hot wing challenge while discussing her upcoming solo album “ROSIE” and her record-breaking single “APT.”

From Confidence to Chaos: ROSÉ’s Hot Wing Journey

What started as a confident declaration of her Korean spice tolerance quickly turned into an entertaining battle against increasingly fiery hot sauces. “My tongue is different,” ROSÉ proudly claimed at the beginning of her challenge. However, by the time she reached the later wings, even this K-pop star’s legendary composure began to crack.

The Spice Level Breakdown:

• Wing 1 (1,800 SHU): “This is cute,” ROSÉ laughed
• Wings 2-6 (6,900 – 71,000 SHU): Maintained her cool
• Wing 7 (133,000 SHU): “It’s hitting me!”
• Wing 8 (135,600 SHU): Screams ensued
• Wing 9 (820,000 SHU): Resorted to stress-squishing toys
• Wing 10 (2,693,000 SHU): Achieved legendary status

Despite the challenge’s intensity, ROSÉ powered through all ten wings, joining an elite group of celebrities who’ve completed the gauntlet, including Ariana Grande, Justin Timberlake, and Scarlett Johansson.

New Album “ROSIE”: Raw Emotions Behind the Music

Between bites of increasingly spicy wings, ROSÉ opened up about her upcoming debut solo album “ROSIE,” set to release on December 6th. “This album represents my life over the past 3-4 years,” she revealed, dabbing tears from her eyes (though whether from emotion or hot sauce remained unclear). “It contains painful stories and vulnerable emotions I’ve never shared before.”

The artist philosophically noted that the album’s strength lies in its ability to “transform imperfection into something beautiful” – a sentiment she shared while reaching for ice cream to cool her burning tongue.

“APT” Continues to Soar

While ROSÉ may have met her match in the Hot Ones challenge, her pre-release single “APT” continues to break records:

• 300 million YouTube views in just 22 days
• Two consecutive weeks at #1 on Billboard Global 200
• #3 on UK Singles Top 100

The success of “APT” sets high expectations for her upcoming album “ROSIE,” suggesting that ROSÉ’s solo career is as hot as the last wing she conquered on Hot Ones.
