Ahead of Beetlejuice 2’s release in September, Michael Keaton shows up as his character Beetlejuice in a parody of Sean Evans’ Hot Ones show. In the skit renamed Not Ones, Beetlejuice is seen chugging a bottle of hot sauce before proceeding to answer questions from Keaton.
Keaton broke the ice by welcoming Beetlejuice, who told him to hurry as he had a spa appointment next. The mischievous character continued to eat from the hot platter, which came with a Skullville scale rather than the usual Scoville one.
Beetlejuice revealed that his inspirations across generations include the likes of 19th-century French emperor Napoleon, who she claims was a good pal, the mad Caligula, and surprisingly Justin Bieber. He admitted that Caligula was indeed a wild man as he was known for excessive taxation of the Romans during his reign.
Some minutes in, Keaton asks his character if he is enjoying the spicy platter and is met with a shocking response as Beetlejuice says the ribs remind him of a guy he ate in Seattle. The unhinged pinstripe-wearing creature then farts fire and asks, “Who the hell are you?” as a fed-up Keaton leaves the stage.
The Not Ones parody sketch has received over 700,000 views on YouTube and thousands of comments so far as fans share their thoughts. “I would not be surprised if Beetlejuice would use hot sauce as eye drops,” someone said, while another simply commended Keaton for getting into and out of character so seamlessly.
The excitement for the Beetlejuice sequel was obvious in the comments, and the original Hot Ones show even got some encouragement from the perspective of viewers. “Hot Ones has become SO huge that production companies like WB are actually using it in marketing campaigns That’s just CRAZY AWESOME,” a fan gushed.
