10 Best Ever Stories Told On Hot Ones
3. Charlize Theron Takes A Rorschach Test
Although she shared numerous interesting tidbits about her acting career, the most intriguing part of Charlize Theron's Hot One appearance came in the form of an unexpected test at the end of the show.
With a knack for handling the heat of the wings, Theron came off as one of the most composed Hot Ones guests, but that didn't stop her from sharing a few things that perhaps she shouldn't have. Throughout the conversation, Theron explained to Sean Evans how she remained uncomfortable during certain high-pressure settings, such as interviews. As a result, she said she often found herself saying embarrassing things whenever she was stressed out.
Taking advantage of her exploit, Evans informed Theron she would be taking part in a Rorschach Test while under the hypnotic influence of the hot wings. Without much hesitation, she agreed and began to reveal just how obnoxious some of her on-the-fly remarks could be. In order, her responses to inkblots were "penis, mountain, my breakfast, and clown." Oh, and she saved the best for last when she described an image of Evans as "a**hole."
Perhaps her responses didn't give Theron the same mature image she possessed earlier on in the show, but she still managed to survive the challenge and promote Gringo. The spiciness must have had some effect, though, as she couldn't get through the promo work without taking a few jabs at her co-stars.
