Natalie Portman Attempts Hot Ones’ Spicy Wing Challenge


(PG-13: language) In the latest episode of First We Feast’s “Hot Ones” series, host Sean Evans chats with Oscar-winning actress, producer, and director Natalie Portman about her personal life and long film career as they both suffer through ten progressively spicy hot sauce-covered (vegan) chicken wings.

“Natalie Portman is an Oscar-award winning actress, a Star Wars alum, and the producer of a new documentary based on Jonathan Safran Foer’s seminal book about factory farming, Eating Animals. But how is she with hot food? Find out as the Hollywood icon takes on a lineup of vegan drumsticks slathered with some of the spiciest sauces in the world. As the Scoville bombs rain down on her tongue, Portman discusses her beloved SNL rap performances, her Harvard days, and why it’s cool that Kanye used ballet dancers in his “Runaway” video.”
