Selena Gomez Fans Outraged by Husband Benny Blanco's Unhygienic Podcast Behaviour
Selena Gomez's devoted fanbase has been left feeling utterly disgusted after her husband, record producer Benny Blanco, subjected listeners to a series of unhygienic antics on his newly launched podcast. The 37-year-old musician, who married the 33-year-old actress towards the end of last year, faced a torrent of criticism for openly displaying his grubby feet on camera and deliberately passing wind into a microphone during the broadcast.
Podcast Viewers Horrified by Dirty Feet Display
Throughout the conversation on his new show, Friends Keep Secrets, Benny placed his feet up on the sofa for all to see, a move that instantly repelled viewers. Social media platforms were quickly flooded with complaints from fans who were appalled by the sight of his visibly dirty soles. One fan expressed their dismay on X, writing, "pls i cannot see that video of benny blanco with his vile dirty feet out one more time, it’s knocking me sick!" The incident has drawn sharp contrast to the couple's fairy-tale wedding just months earlier, where Selena wore a custom Ralph Lauren dress.
Farting Microphone Stunt Adds to Fan Disgust
In a further act that left audiences cringing, Benny tested whether a fart would be picked up by the microphone, and the sound was indeed captured and broadcast. This additional stunt compounded the disgust among listeners, many of whom directed their frustration towards Selena Gomez herself. One fan questioned, "the fact that his feet are ACTUALLY that filthy makes me sick to my stomach like selena girl what’s going on," while another bluntly stated, "That is disgusting idk how selena dealing with this!"
Calls for Divorce and Social Media Backlash
The backlash has escalated to the point where fans are now openly calling for Selena Gomez to end her marriage. One social media user pleaded, "Selena needs to divorce him and find someone better," and another expressed disappointment, saying, "'I have never been more disappointed in Selena than I am right now!" Amid the growing storm, some fans have opted to avoid the podcast entirely, with one commenting, "i don't know what podcast you refer to, but for the sake of my sanity, I will not be watching it."
Background on Selena and Benny's Relationship
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco first revealed they were dating in December 2023, after having been together for approximately six months prior. Their engagement was announced on Instagram a year later, with Selena publicly praising her marquise diamond ring as the one she had always dreamed of since her 2015 song "Good for You." The couple tied the knot in September 2025, though Selena had previously admitted on the podcast Therapuss that wedding planning was delayed due to busy schedules, stating, "I couldn't be more excited... we just have things we want to finish in our own personal endeavours before we get into all the nitty-gritty."
Despite the recent controversy, the incident highlights the intense scrutiny that celebrity relationships face from fans and the public, with even minor actions sparking widespread debate and calls for drastic measures like divorce.
