ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) is an incurable disease that affects nerve cells, causing the body to reduce functionality. The purpose of the ALS Challenge is to raise money for ALS research and raise awareness, which certainly is working. They’ve raised an astounding $94,000 so far. The type of pepper you use is up to you, but we’ve seen super spicy peppers as the trend.
In her post, Kelly nominated her husband as well as Alicia Keys, Blake Shelton, and Adam Levine to participate in the challenge. She kept her usual sense of sarcastic humor by joking being mad at Trisha Yearwood for the nomination. Kelly chose to eat a habanero pepper, and then she immediately needed to chug a bottle of milk afterwards. We are so happy to see celebrities participating in something this important, and we hope to see this challenge continue to grow more popular with more awareness for everyone struggling with ALS.
