    • 29. Travis Kelce Gets Woozy Eating Spicy Wings

      29 Sep '16
      Being an NFL Pro Bowler is sure evidence that Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is tough as nails. Starring in an E! Entertainment Television reality dating show called "Catching Kelce" is evidence that he is also down to make suspect decisions in the name of good #content. And so, it only made sense to invite Kelce into the Hot Ones studio to take on the 10 wings of death and answer some burning questions from host Sean Evans. Strap in—we haven't seen this much willpower exerted on

In Hart's own words, "We out here!"

He jet sets around the world playing to massive festival crowds. And he was just named DJ Mag's #1 DJ in the entire world. So it only makes sense that the Dutch sensation would become the first DJ to step into the Hot Ones arena and submit to some spicy wings and burning questions from Sean Evans. Let the beat drop...

    • 41. Tom Colicchio Goes Full Top Chef on Some Spicy Wings

      01 Dec '16

The Bravo vet also tackles some Top Chef quickfire and teaches Sean how to properly judge a dangerously hot chicken wing.
