Benny Blanco may be famous for crafting chart-topping hits, but lately, the internet has been buzzing about something else — his allegedly dirty feet. And now, he’s setting the record straight.
On Thursday night (February 26), Blanco joined Lil Dicky on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where the late-night host brought up the viral moment. Blanco’s feet recently caught attention after appearing noticeably dirty on an episode of their show, Friends Keep Secrets.
“People seem to be fascinated with the idea that Benny’s feet are very dirty,” Kimmel said, prompting Blanco to quickly push back — jokingly placing the blame on Lil Dicky’s house, where they film the show.
“Okay, first of all, it’s the facility’s fault. It’s not mine. I have great feet. Hold on,” Blanco said, before pulling off his right boot and sock. “Someone zoom in on my foot. Look at that. Look at that.”
Kimmel quickly noted that viewers couldn’t “see the bottom” of his foot, prompting Blanco to flip it over and show the sole — earning cheers from the audience. “Look at that. Clean, clean, clean. Look at that. Are you kidding me?”
Lil Dicky jumped in to offer some context. “It was the first day we filmed anything, so the crew was coming in and out. It probably was a little bit to do with it,” he explained.
As Blanco slipped his sock back on, Kimmel joked that he should “get an OnlyFans for that thing,” an idea Blanco playfully thanked him for.
In the debut episode of Friends Keep Secrets, which Blanco co-hosts with Lil Dicky and his wife Kristin Batalucco, the producer casually propped his feet up on the couch mid-conversation — revealing soles that instantly caught the internet’s attention.
Still, Selena Gomez didn’t seem bothered at all. “I fall more and more in love with you every day my love,” she wrote on her Instagram Story, sharing a clip of the two kissing.
