As a dedicated follower of Ariana Grande’s career, I must say that her appearance on Hot Ones was a testament to her resilience and adaptability. From her humble beginnings as a Nickelodeon star to becoming one of the most successful pop artists of our time, she has faced numerous challenges and obstacles with grace and determination.


In the final episode of “Hot Ones,” Ariana Grande demonstrated her great sportsmanship by showing she could handle the spicy challenges.

She informed host Sean Evans, while munching on a vegan wing, that she wasn’t being boastful or arrogant but rather humble, vulnerable, and truthful.

As a diligent fan, I often ponder about my place in the musical spectrum, from DJ Khaled to Lorde. I always make sure to do my research and study the craft thoroughly.

As a connoisseur of vibrant flavors, I find myself often inspired by the culinary exploits of two extraordinary individuals – DJ Khaled and Lorde. While the music mogul wisely chooses to savor only three fiery sauces, the enigmatic singer-songwriter fearlessly tackles the infamous Da Bomb sauce with an ease that leaves me awestruck.

Evans shared with Ariana, who had been nominated for six MTV VMAs, that he felt she leaned more towards Lorde in terms of preferences. However, after tasting Chairman Meow’s hot sauce during the competition, Ariana remarked, “I’m starting to understand that I don’t enjoy spicy sauces.”

Moving forward amidst the escalating hotness of the Scoville scale, she paused briefly at the 126,000 threshold and mused, “Somehow, I seem to excel at this. Or am I simply desensitized?”

She expressed her sense of unease, even though she appeared okay, saying, “Something doesn’t seem right, but I’m alright.” In another way, she put it, “I can handle the spiciness, but my body keeps asking, ‘What’s going on?'”

When inquired about whether there are any tunes she no longer performs due to growing tired of them, she admitted to having moments where she no longer felt the same appreciation for her early fame.

At one point in my life, it was challenging for me to truly appreciate the same level of gratitude I hold now towards certain tunes and music in general. Becoming a pop star at such a young age, around 19 or 20, is almost unbelievable. I believe that journey has left an imprint on some of those songs.

As a musician who has poured my heart and soul into creating emotional music, I strongly believe that each song is a reflection of personal experiences. The notes, lyrics, and melodies that I compose are often inspired by moments in my life, making each piece a unique snapshot of my feelings and emotions at a particular time. These songs serve as a bridge between my inner world and the outside, allowing me to share my deepest thoughts and emotions with others who may resonate with them. In this way, music becomes a powerful tool for connecting people, expressing our shared human experiences, and healing our hearts.

Over time and through therapy, we seem to find a way back to accepting them wholeheartedly. Now, whenever I hear them, I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of pride, gratitude, and joy, whereas before, their words might have made me cry.

During her conversations amidst the wings (stage sides), she shared insights about working on the Wicked films and expressed admiration for Cynthia Erivo’s daring stunts.

“Observing Cynthia in her harness, donning a hat, wig, corset, dress, and all the trimmings, effortlessly flipping over, soaring around the set, repeatedly singing ‘Defying Gravity’ as if it were routine – truly an extraordinary spectacle I’ve never witnessed before,” stated Grande, who portrays Glinda alongside Erivo’s Elphaba.

‘We had to do some really insane and beautiful things for this film.’

Then she jokingly remarked, “I’m chattering away to put off the unavoidable,” followed by a large gulp of Da Bomb, known for its Scoville rating of 135,500.

“She paused for a moment, taking a bite and letting out a gentle burp. It struck me as peculiar because my senses seemed heightened, with my tongue tingling and my mind feeling as if it was detached, observing us from above.” (First person perspective)

Ariana Grande, the artist behind “thank u, next,” expressed disappointment and dismay when some of her unpublished songs were leaked online.

She expressed her frustration by saying, “It’s really tough,” followed by her ongoing struggle to understand the process behind people acquiring things, which she finds both frustrating and dehumanizing. However, she also shared a sense of gratitude for being an artist whose work is valued and appreciated, with fans going to great lengths to obtain more of her creations, even resorting to stealing or breaking in.

She expressed concern about drinking water as it could potentially exacerbate the situation, and she mentioned that the hot sauce seemed to act like a lip-enhancing agent.

After that, she shifted her attention to Pepper Up, which rates at 700,000, and described it as ‘repulsive,’ but this comment was about its flavor, not its spiciness.

In a surprising turn of events, the last wing scored an impressive 2.63 million on the Scoville scale, yet she remained unfazed, managing to eat two whole vegan wings without so much as a flinch.

Ariana mentioned that she had Tums, bananas, and popsicles ready backstage, indicating she wasn’t anticipating a smooth ride during the challenge.
