Selena Gomez Slammed For Kissing Benny Blanco’s Feet

Gomez and her man have been the center of attention in recent weeks for the wrong reasons.
A few days ago, the “Calm Down” crooner sparked online backlash after a surprising moment during an episode of “Friends Keep Secrets” hosted by Blanco.
As The Blast reported, the viral moment happened roughly halfway through the episode when Gomez sat on the floor beside Blanco while he rested his foot on a table during the conversation.
Mid-discussion, Gomez suddenly leaned forward and kissed one of Blanco’s toes. The affectionate gesture came a few days after viewers had already criticized the producer for appearing barefoot with visibly dirty feet in an earlier episode.
Blanco reacted playfully, asking those in the room, “You like that?” which prompted Gomez to quickly respond, “Oh, don’t make it a moment!”
Despite her comment, Blanco appeared amused and told the room he enjoyed it, saying the gesture “made me feel good” before adding that he loved her.
However, the clip quickly went viral online, with many viewers calling the display “gross” and “disgusting,” while others questioned why such an intimate moment was shared publicly.
