Selena Gomez Defends Benny Blanco After Podcast Fiasco

Selena Gomez has recently shared affectionate images of herself with Benny Blanco, showcasing their public displays of affection. These photos, posted to Instagram on Saturday, include moments from Blanco's recent western-themed 38th birthday party and other candid shots by the water and at the beach. This renewed display of closeness follows online criticism directed at Blanco for his appearance on a recent podcast taping.

Benny Blanco faced significant backlash on social media after the podcast episode aired, with viewers pointing out his visibly dirty feet and a moment where he farted into the microphone. In response to the criticism, Gomez publicly defended Blanco, sharing a supportive post for the music producer. She further demonstrated her support by kissing his dogs during an episode of her own podcast the following week. The couple, who have known each other for years, reportedly began their romantic relationship in mid-2023.
