Watch On <\/a><\/p>\nYou have your own Death Wish Coffee blend, Valhalla Java Odinforce. How do you take it?<\/p>\n
\u201cStraight up, man. I can\u2019t drink it with cream and sugar. Put it this way, if there\u2019s a lid on it and I get it for my friends, who have those syrup ones that are about 560 million calories, and I accidentally take a sip, I feel like my teeth are about to explode. I can\u2019t even taste the coffee! I like the espresso taste; I like it bitter!\u201d<\/p>\n
What to read next<\/p>\n
I make out with all my dogs.<\/p>\n
Zakk Wylde<\/p>\n
It\u2019s super-strong, right? <\/p>\n
\u201cOh yeah, it\u2019s like putting a shot of espresso in your coffee. When they sent me that as a sampler to try, I knew it was the one.\u201d<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve also put your name to Berserker Hot Sauce. How hot do you go?<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, there\u2019s \u2018hot\u2019 and then there\u2019s \u2018burn the top of your oesophagus\u2019. I like it kinda mellow; I want to be able to taste the food. But I got buddies who will not be satisfied until you have to take them to the hospital after they eat. I\u2019m talking molten lava, bro!\u201d<\/p>\n
What\u2019s the hottest thing you\u2019ve ever eaten?<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t! I won\u2019t even go there. You know what\u2019s going to be hot, what do I wanna put myself through that for? That takes me away from my Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber albums!\u201d<\/p>\n
We were looking on Instagram and a pug account recently named you as the celebrity pug owner of the day!<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, I\u2019m a big animal guy. Every time I go to a shelter I just wanna scoop them all up and take them all home!\u201d<\/p>\n
Are you a bit soppy around your pets? <\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, totally, man. I make out with all of my dogs! I just make sure I brush my teeth before I make out! Ha ha! I gotta look out for them!\u201d<\/p>\n
You were famously in the movie Rock Star. You still hang out with Mark Wahlberg?<\/p>\n
\u201cI haven\u2019t seen him for a while, but Mark is good people, very mellow. Everyone involved was super-cool, not just Mark but Jen [Aniston] and the director Stephen Herek. Great experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
So, did you manage to turn Marky Mark into a metalhead?<\/p>\n
\u201cActually, it was very funny, because he said to me while we were doing the movie, \u2018Zakk, I have to be honest with you, I didn\u2019t even know any of this music existed.\u2019 His brothers just played him rap growing up. You think, \u2018How can you not know about Led Zeppelin?\u2019 But he just wasn\u2019t from that world. Super-cool guy, though.\u201d<\/p>\n
