It's the new wave sweeping the internet
and celebrities are getting in on the action.
Welcome to WatchMojo.
Here are our picks for the Top 10 Celebrity Bottle Cap Challenges.
For this list, we're looking at some of the greatest bottle cap challenges
performed by celebrities and ranking them
based on a combination of cool factor, skill and originality.
We all know Jason Statham as a badass action star,
whose choreographed fight skills,
impeccable timing and swift kicks are the stuff of legend.
However, in this case, he's using them to...
get to his drink faster?
Who knows?
He was an early entrant into the celebrity bottle cap war of 2019,
so while he does seem a bit tame, it is no less impressive.
In fact, as Twitter user @Truly_Defective aptly put it:
"This is exactly how I imagine a remake of Cocktail starring Jason Statham would play out".
Lizzo is an exciting up and coming hip-hop artist
whose third studio album, Cuz I Love You,
was released in April 2019.
She's set to gain even more fans after this hilarious and touching bottle cap challenge.
Unlike a lot of the more serious videos,
Lizzo's is personable and charming,
as it takes place in what looks like a dressing room.
The singer/rapper hilariously whiffing her first attempt.
Luckily, she manages the second time
and makes this one of the most enjoyable bottle cap challenges to watch.
John Mayer is used to making the ladies swoon, but with this video, he also proves that
he probably could take your head off with one swift kick.
John performs a fluid backward kick directly to the cap,
causing it to twist off and fly off camera.
It is incredibly satisfying to see his foot make contact with the cap
and watching it spin-off.
To signify his place in bottle cap challenge history,
he glances at the camera as if to say, "Yeah, I just did that".
Okay, remind us never to mess with John Mayer!
The Biebers have also gotten in on the bottle cap action.
Justin's attempt is pretty neat
as he sends a cap flying with a well-placed spinning kick.
However, we have to give the Bieber family crown to Hailey.
Her video is far more creative,
as it features music, slow motion,
and, oh yeah, the use of a freaking ATV!
We've seen our fair share of the same old kicks,
but we can't say that we've seen someone utilizing an all-terrain vehicle.
It elevates the video and helps it stand out from the pack.
Leave it to Marlon Wayans to make a mockery out of the challenge
but in an entertaining way, at least!
You can tell that he's not taking it seriously as he makes cliché karate noises
and just screams at the bottle for about five seconds.
Like Lizzo, Marlon misses his first attempt but connects on the second,
sending the entire bottle clattering to the ground.
His rather blunt message at the end just proves that his heart was never really in it.
Even amidst the whole "subvert expectations by not actually doing it"
which we will see more of soon,
Marlon Wayans' video is still particularly funny!
We expected Conor McGregor to do something cool,
and we weren't disappointed.
While the kick itself is rather traditional,
it's the extra little touches that makes it memorable.
For one thing, Conor bows to the bottle in a show of respect,
which is something most celebrities don't do!
He also performs the kick while holding a bottle of whiskey
and he toasts the viewer after the job is done.
However, he refrains from actually drinking the whiskey,
and that was a little distracting.
Come on, Conor. Commit to the bit!
If there's anyone we expect an amazing kick from,
it's a professional martial artist and action choreographer.
Donnie Yen is one of the biggest Asian action stars in the world,
having appeared in numerous Asian films as well as American blockbusters
like "xXx: Return of Xander Cage" and "Rogue One".
And yes, Donnie's kick was every bit as amazing.
For one thing, he's wearing a Toronto Raptors shirt.
Canada represent!
He also blindfolds himself before delivering a lightning-fast kick
to send the cap spinning to the floor.
Yep, that's a professional martial artist at work, right there.
And if there's one person we didn't expect an amazing kick from,
it's country music legend Blake Shelton.
Shelton imbues his video with his trademark country vibe,
with insects buzzing in the rural background.
He also uses a bottle of Smithworks Vodka for the challenge,
which is actually his own brand of vodka.
Like Marlon Wayans, Blake didn't take the challenge seriously,
as he kicked the bottle, cradled it in his arms,
and ran away while fake crying.
It looks a bit like an advertisement for Smithworks
but we can get over that.
It's still hilarious and better than most other everyday challenge videos.
It's not a fad until Ryan Reynolds gets involved!
The world-famous movie star decided
to take the challenge in a new direction,
and the results were simply spectacular.
We watch in peaceful tranquillity as a bottle of gin
is carried around to various beautiful locations
before making its way to Ryan Reynolds' trailer.
It's there that Ryan gives it a fitting send-off into a wall,
where it shatters into pieces.
Oh well, it lived a good life.
The production design alone elevates this bottle cap challenge above the others,
and the gut-busting and glass-shattering ending is a thing of pure beauty.
The greatest short film of 2019 has arrived.
I don't know man, considering how many people
have succeeded at this, does it seem too easy?
Not that I have or would try
because I would just embarrass myself terribly.
But anyway, what's the most creative take on the challenge?
Let's wait until after these cool honourable mentions to find out.
Not quite at the end yet.
Almost there though.

All right, back to business.
Well, we think everyone can pack it in now
because nobody will ever top Mariah Carey.
She squares up with the bottle as if she's preparing for a kick,
but then she quickly pulls the rug out from under us
by literally singing the cap off instead!
Yep, in this video it seems like Mariah's insanely high vocal register
was enough to send the loose cap flying.
She doesn't even nominate anyone else.
She just smugly walks off-camera with the full knowledge
that she has just won the bottle cap challenge.
We know it's not a competition, but let's be serious
she blew everyone else out of the water with this one.
