If you missed it, Benny Blanco launched his new Friends Keep Secrets podcast with a moment that instantly got people talking.
In the premiere episode, filmed at Lil Dicky’s Los Angeles home, the 37-year-old Grammy-nominated producer lounged on the couch with noticeably dirty bare feet — and even deliberately farted on camera to test whether the microphones would catch it. The clip quickly went viral, with viewers reacting to everything from the condition of his feet to his overall hygiene.
While many viewers were put off by the moment, one creator saw it in a completely different light.
On Thursday, February 26, OnlyFans personality Danielle Lanza — better known online as Dan Dangler — reposted the viral clip on X with a caption that even surprised her own audience. “Wait why is nobody talking about how this is actually kinda hot,” she wrote, sharing footage that had originally been posted by a Selena Gomez fan account two days earlier.
The reaction came fast and loud.
“Dan, I love you, but I’ve always been put off by your obsession with pop stars,” one user commented.
“You say you like manly men. This is the opposite,” another added.
“His feet?” a third questioned.
Lanza is no stranger to stirring conversation online. The Detroit-born Twitch streamer has spent much of February making headlines with her outspoken takes. Earlier this month, she called out former OnlyFans creator Nala Ray after Ray told Fox News that adult content “is not real work,” with Lanza publicly criticizing what she saw as hypocrisy.
She also cast doubt on Bonnie Blue’s pregnancy announcement on X, suggesting it came off more like a publicity move than a personal reveal. And when “Hawk Tuah Girl” Haliey Welch transitioned into adult content following her crypto controversy, Lanza shared her thoughts there as well.
After reposting a message that read, “A year ago the ‘Hawk Tuah girl’ was tied to a crypto scam that extracted millions from people. Now she’s online again promoting adult content,” Lanza added, “I thought she would never do? I suppose when life hits the fan you gotta keep making $ somehow.”
As for Benny Blanco, the dirty-feet moment is just the latest example of his unconventional habits. He previously told People that he doesn’t shower daily, saying he prefers to let his skin oils “rejuvenate and get juicy.” He was also spotted chewing gum with his mouth wide open at the 2025 Golden Globes, according to The Tab. And last Valentine’s Day, he went all out for Selena Gomez by filling an entire bathtub with liquid queso — the couple later married in September in Santa Barbara.
