Maya Rudolph ‘doing’ Hot Ones is the most blazingly entertaining 80 seconds we’ll watch today

Bridesmaids star Maya Rudolph’s appearance on Hot Ones isn’t quite what it appears to be but it’s still the most blazingly entertaining 80 seconds you’ll watch today.

The clip’s so far been watched 8 million times on Twitter and this is why.

Rudolph’s not actually appearing on Hot Ones – a show in which celebrities chat while trying increasingly hot spicy chicken – but a scene from her Apple+ TV series, Loot, in which she stars with Adam Scott.

It didn’t stop it going viral though, or make it any less enjoyable.

I thought this was a real Hot Ones for like half the video
