Benny Blanco’s latest podcast debut started with more shock than charm. Fans tuned in expecting casual conversation and behind-the-scenes stories, but Benny quickly stole the spotlight for all the wrong reasons and left Selena Gomez completely disgusted and questioning the singer’s choice in partners.
The episode, recorded in California, kicked off with Benny lounging on the couch with co-hosts Lil Dicky and Kristin Batalucco. Almost immediately, he lifted his bare, dirt-caked feet onto the furniture, drawing instant outrage online, according to The Sun.
But the feet were only the beginning. Benny proceeded to make loud, obnoxious noises, even going as far as to fart, hoping the microphone picked up the disgusting noises. He continued to crack crude jokes and engaged in off-color banter that many fans described as “grotesque” and “embarrassing.”

Needless to say, social media didn’t hold back. “EW! Benny, go shower and put on socks,” one fan wrote. Another tweeted, “Selena, how do you deal with this level of crudeness every day?” The co-hosts tried to keep the conversation moving, but Benny’s antics, including dirt, farting, and general rudeness, completely overshadowed any discussion or guest promotion.
“This is the kind of ick you never recover from,” one commenter writes.
“Selena blink twice if you need help,” another adds.
Selena eventually joined the episode by phone, adding her voice to the discussion. Her usual charm and professionalism stood in stark contrast to Benny’s antics. Fans noticed the difference immediately. While Selena’s contributions were polished, Benny’s combination of filthy feet, flatulence, and crude humor had already taken center stage.

Of course, some fans couldn’t resist the gossip. A few jokingly suggested that Hailey Bieber might be quietly enjoying seeing Selena in the public eye. This time, having to deal with her husband’s viral misbehavior rather than an ex. While playful, the comments underline how invested the internet is in celebrity drama and how quickly unusual behavior becomes a topic of discussion.
The episode also reignited debate over Selena’s choice of partners. Many fans feel that tolerating public displays of gross behavior raises questions about her standards. Social media users speculated that Selena’s tolerance may reflect a pattern of excusing toxic behavior in her personal life. Leaving some to wonder if the pop star is prioritizing love over public image or personal boundaries.
